Reading in between the white lines on the road.

I have to give credit for the title of this to Erin Quinn. I thought it was a great quote, and I think Ben Rector is awesome. So, there, I don't feel guilty or like a copy-cat anymore.

I am sitting up at 1:19 am wondering why i'm still awake, and why the questions keep on coming. Living in a new town, with no home, and not many friends isn't what I had in mind to end my summer with. But, maybe it's not about what I had in mind. (I don't know where this post is going, my fingers are just kind of roaming as I think...haha)

I wish things went the way I wanted, but if they did, they probably wouldn't turn out half as well as they typically do. I wish I could understand and know why. But I suppose, Job, a righteous man, when he asked God why, God answered him out of a storm and Job recieved the answer of his lifetime. No, I guess I don't need to know why, (nor could I if I did need to know).

I want to live a reformed, and a radical, and a sanctified life. But am I willing to sacrifice the life that I have in this real world, to have a life that is set apart?

Only time will tell.
