Look for a Window, Find a Door

I will have to explain a lot in one post to catch everyone up to speed since a lot has happened in the past semester.

The Beginning:

I'm sitting in church, taking notes during the message (at the time I was sketching a lion [God] in my journal) and I had this revelation. I have never experienced anything like it before. Thoughts were flowing so quickly I could hardly keep up with my self as I tried to jot things down on a new page of my journal. My heart was beating fast, my body felt out of place for a moment... kinda like when you spin around in circles and get dizzy and you are just settling in and finding your ground... it felt like that, but I didn't feel like throwing up. I felt as though the Lord laid His hand on my head and He instructed me to write things down. The moment came and then it went, but I couldn't stop thinking about it. My heart was still in awe of what had just happened.

Later on after the service I approached my friend Karlie and told her that I was going to be praying about something and I would talk with her later on about it. At the time she was being asked a million questions by people of the church. Funny thing is, later that evening she turned up at a bonfire I was at and then we got to talking. I walked with her as she was heading out and told her what had happened and that I felt like God was telling me that I needed to ask Megan about possibly going to Costa Rica and helping to make a support short film for Love & Scissors. I was so scared to even let that roll off my tongue because I did have things that I questioned. I felt like I was crazy #1 and #2 I had never done something like this before. Karlie without knowing it spoke so much peace over me and I started to cry, every one of my fears she knocked out. She told me to "shoot for the stars" as cliche as it may sound. But, she's right, why should I limit my God? Why should I limit the abilities that He has given me? Why should I limit the plans He has for me?

Thus, began a journey of doors and windows.
