Scariest thing

I've been considering my options a lot lately.

I'm in a comfortable spot in life right now. I just have to do what's expected of me, and everything's good. I could just continue along this path, and take things pretty easy for the next four years. But I have a serious decision to make, and I think I just made it.

What I'm going to do scared me. It REALLY scares me.

I'm going to have to trust God. I'm going to have to rely on His direction for me.

Oh Lord, help me to make the right choice here.

If I leave my current situation, I won't have much money, I don't have a place to live lined up yet, and I don't have a job ready for me. But I will be able to be me, and that might be the best gift I can give myself.

I actually like where I am right now, but if I go for 4 more years, who knows where I'll go or what I'll be doing. So in that sense, what's so different about leaving this place?

If anyone is reading this, I ask that you pray for me. I'm truly scared right now. I may be sort of leaping off a cliff, and I'm trusting that God will catch me.
