No more

Last Thursday I quit ROTC.

Heres part of email that really sums up what I am feeling.
i would like to add that I do not regret my choice, but can't deny what I'm feeling.

I not being flaky more like confused.
I quit rotc yesterday.
The military was me.
kinda still is you know?
And now its gone.
The order
The predictability
The challenge
The stress

And in its place is:
Confusion
Trust
Confusion
No order
No predictability
Just Confusion
And Insecurity
And unpredictability

i find it interesting that "trust" is placed in the midst of many other negative words that have replaced what ROTC was to you.

i think this is key.

you're in a place that is unfamiliar territory, and trust is super important as you navigate it.

i've been feeling this way for quite sometime now, and i've got to tell you, my outlook on life and my situations is totally different when i focus in on TRUSTing JESUS. or if i look at all the unknowns.

so i want to encourage to TRUST JESUS.
continually.
in the small things.
in the quiet moments.

Sounds dull.
I'm actually glad you quit ROTC. I put alot of unnecessary stress on your life. Good for you.
