How Did I Get Here One More Time?

Hey cool people reading this blog..... *winks, because you ARE cool if you are reading this blog*
It is Beth, the offical Destination: Paradise spokesperson. (hold the applause...... or laughter...)
So here I come again, talking about something from the Bible, or something awesome that has happened..... nope. Not this time. Because the truth is.... not everything is going to be awesome. I figured that one out 3 years ago, when Destination: Paradise was nothing more than my scribbling in a History notebook. (I wonder what my mom thiks those scribbles are... :P) Anyways.
It feels like I'm climbing up out of a pit, and just when I've climbed so far and things look great....
I slide back twice as far as I've climbed. Anyone know the feeling??? Yeeeaaah..... isn't it fun? *sarcasm here folks*
So I've been thinking. I had a little conversation with God about this subject. Here's how it went:

Me: God, this is my dream!!! I want to be in a band for you.... but we don't have any real equipment, and because of that, we can't practice, and I feel like there is nothing left to write about, and I've got college scouts talking about field hockey, and-

God: Trust me.

Me: Yeah, but everyone's telling me I can't be so sure, that I should think about other stuff, how do you practice to be in a band when your bandmates live 25min. on either side of you, and you've got high school and PSATs-

God: Trust Me.

Me: But I don't-

God: Trust me. I have the perfect future for you. It doesn't matter what anyone says, or what you do. If you live in me, you will live the perfect life.

Me: Okay. How do I know I'm..... oooh. Okay. So I don't have to worry about not being able to practice?

God: Nope.

Me: Or field hockey, or gas prices?

God: Nope. Nothing will stop the plan I have for you coming true.

Me: How do I know I'm following the right path?

God: Trust me.

Sooooo...... as you can see, this issue is still on my mind. What, I go up to people and say, "I'm in a band!!!" (But we don't practice, have no equipment.... and etc, etc....)
Then they say, "What are you talking about girl??"
HELLO???? ANYONE HEAR OF A MIRACLE??!?!?

I don't know God's perfect plan for me, or our little group. But whatever it is, I know it is a good one.

Stay strong, rock on!

Beth
