The Quiet Place

Although it is already the 19th of November,  I would still like to announce that the theme for this month is... This is such a cool theme to me and I hope I am able to squeeze in a few tidbits about peace before the month ends! If you'd like to share your own heart and thoughts with us regarding peace, please send me an email at hillary.thequietplace@gmail.com. I would love to walk along side you as a fellow blogger and sister in Christ. So send your post on peace my way!  On that note, I'd like to leave you with this... Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you.  I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled  and do not be afraid. John 14:27 Be at peace sister, God's got this, and he's not going to let us down.

But also excited for whatever God has for me next and whatever job he leads me towards. In the midst of applying for jobs, looking for jobs, etc. A few weeks ago my roommate who is not only my roommate but my friend, has gotten a job somewhere else and will be moving out in January. I must say that when I found out, I was a little disappointed, sad, and frustrated that my circumstances were not what I wanted them to be, I found myself doubting that God has better plans for me than what I have for myself, and that he will work everything out.
