Kim’s Leap of Faith

It’s daylight savings time today and I still don’t really know if my clock is right.

I heard some people talking about the early time change today and a woman said, “I don’t know. Something doesn’t seem right about this. I think they’re up to something.”

I thought that was funny.

Kim is making a big move.

She is resigning from her job and moving back to Chicago with no set income and she will stay with a friend. She says that she will no longer allow her job to hold her back from accomplishing all that she can accomplish. So she is moving back to the place she has been trying to get back to ever since she first moved to Atlanta. She has applied for job after job in Chicago with her company with no luck. She feels that her heart is still in Chicago and her future lies there.

I was afraid for her. Not just because she has a healthy car note but because I imagined her going through the things that I am going through and I would not wish this on my worst enemy (if I had one). So I was very hesitant about celebrating her leap of faith.

Tonight we talked about it and I told her I had a change of heart. If her heart says leap, then she must leap. I prayed with her and reminded her that my walk is MY WALK and God knows how much we can all handle. Though she may encounter a few challenges, God may want her testimony to be that things go smoothly and successfully.

“Girl, could you honestly see me going through what you are going through and living how you are living? Girl! I would be at the point of suicide!”

I pause. “Thanks dawg.”

“Naw..I’m just saying. He knew you were strong enough to handle that.”

“And He knows that you are a brat because He always spoils His baby,” I told her.

She laughed. “He sure does!”

“So you’re going to resign tomorrow?”

“Tomorrow I am going up in that camp and I am going to be done.”

Ok Kim.

I speak nothing but blessings as you take your leap of faith. May everyone watching you be led to the love of God by His powerful hand that will move in your life.

Blessings…

All for you my friend.

May you find your peace in Chicago.
