Where You're leading me

wow, it's been quite the week. one topic of conversation that keeps coming up at school is homecoming. it's not until the second week of october, but people like to start the hype about that early. i don't want to go, but some of my friends are trying to convince me to go.

a new Wegmans opened up last sunday. apparently at the grand opening there were supposed to be 15,000 people or so. i'm not sure if that's how many there were, or if there were more. i didn't think i could go to Wegmans this week, but then God made a way. i was at work on thursday, and they needed to send two people home. the more i think about it, this sounds like some reality tv show. or maybe that's because the new season of Survivor premiered that night. anyways, i said i'd go. after i said that, i realized i could stop at Wegmans on the way home. so it ended up that i had to give someone a ride home, he went with me. i'm glad i went with someone, instead of wondering around aimlessly by myself. i actually did need to pick up orange juice, because my mom asked me to if it wasn't too late when i was coming home. but i decided i probably didn't need to get it at Wegmans, because it would be cheaper at Giant. since Wegmans came in, Giant has had some major sales, and they've lowered practically all their prices on everything. so when we looked at the orange juice, it looked sort of expensive. although we had no clue, because we don't normally have a need to pay attention to these things.

anyways, did you know that there's a such thing as organic clothing? well, there is. and there's about 500 different kinds of cheeses at Wegmans. and that parking lot was pretty busy, and it was only thursday. i told Jared i wanted to know what this place would be like on friday night. but i didn't feel like driving out here to find out. so i drove him to his friend's house, and then went to Giant. i'm glad i went because i could get the same size and kind of orange juice container for about $1.50 less at Giant. not only that, but i also saw someone i knew at Giant. he used to go to my church, but he goes to a different church now, so i don't see him that much. it was really nice getting to talk to him a little bit.

anyways, back to relating this post to its title. it's interesting to see what God wants me to do, and where He wants me to go. looking ahead, some of the places might look a little scary, but i know that God and i can get through it just fine. So i'll just keep holding onto him, and let him bring me through everything, like that Bethany Dillon song says. It's like when i went to Wegmans, it was a little scary because of all the people and just the massiveness of it. but we got through it, and looked around.(after we marvled at how huge it is) and somehow we led ourselves though the store. at one point we got lost, but just kept going a certain way hoping that was the way out. and we got it. in the words of Jennifer Knapp, "With the Spirit as my guide, i'll never have to hide again."
