I moved to an old place, took a new job, and came out with a rather typical result. Resignation. 

I resigned from my job at Trinity United Methodist Church this past Monday after a short tenure of 5 months as the Media Director. 

It would be easy to say that I really regret moving out of a great place with great friends and into something that ultimately didn’t work out, but there’s a silver lining to the cloud. I’ve been blessed with so many situations that I wouldn’t have been involved in had I not been lead and been (what I felt was) obedient to Louisiana.

When this realization hit me I began to wonder about all the things that I could regret. I don’t have a time machine, but decisions that I make now I think I can process differently.

I’m realizing that all these things I view as regrets would’ve never happened were it not for a singular season that I do regret. I regret not going to a large school, but had I not gone to Anderson my life would look completely different. I have a choice. I can regret or I can submit that every situation and circumstance is being redeemed. Call it careless. I’m going to call it faithful.
