Day 33: May 8

This post isn't funny but it just makes me so happy to think about.
I love Jesus. He's my favorite. For the past couple years I have been struggling with the idea of 'doing what God wants me to do'. I would pray and wrestle and mull it over and it just kept seeming like I was being directed toward Los Angeles. Acting. Comedy. Performing. But that couldn't be right because there are people in Malaysia who need to be fed! I need to be doing things that MATTER.
In the past couple of months I have been accepting the fact that I get to stay and work in Los Angeles. I get to do comedy and act and be happy about it!

This past week I was overwhelmed with all of the people in this city and industry that I get to love and inspire and be hopeful about. In the past two years of prayers I never really felt like God was telling me that I just needed to love LA. I felt like He was telling me to do what my heart wanted to do. To trust that my heart was seeking Him.

God wasn't concerned with how I would help the world. He knew I wanted to do that. He wasn't doubting my motives. I was.
 He was concerned with me understanding that He loved me and He is incredibly invested in my happiness.
