Who the heck am I?

Hello friends and/or weird people out there reading some girls blog that you don't even know... I hope to enlighten you with my words of small wisdom and funny insights. I want to warn you - I'm still figuring out who the heck I am. But this I do know - I am 27...and in 58 days that number will go up one more only to remind me that it's been another year that I'm NOT married, I DON'T have kids, I HAVEN'T picked out a career plan, I still own a 96 Ford Taurus that makes noises only God can understand, and I don't have a dime in my savings. Pretty much, I defy all the rules the world says about things you should have accomplished by the age of 27.
I think I spend most of my time NOT trying to figure out who God made ME to be, but rather trying to be someone else, have someone else's talents and be cool. I have a feeling I'm not the only one out there who's still trying to figure out who they really are. So, maybe one day when I'm 85, sitting in my rocking chair, yelling at my great-grandchildren "No!" and "Stop That!" (Some of you will get that later), I will finally arrive at my destination: "Who the heck am I?"

I don't know who God is continuing to transform you into but the one I know now is a pretty special one. I don't know a lot of people who truly choose God's plans instead of their own. God has planned a plan completely different than other 27 yr.olds for you, and you still seek. Something to be admired, and I look up to you for it. And 85 yr. old I think you can look back maybe not completely see who you are but I think you will be able to see who God is.
