a listening ear/ harmony

I have been longing to hear God's voice clearly for a long time.  I've felt periods of silence in my life, and I feel a bit of that now.  I'm seeking direction for my future.  I recently wrote a song called Unsure.  It is about being unsure about the future, and about life, but knowing that I'm sure about the future God has for me.

Sometimes I feel like God is the only stable thing in my life.  Everything else is so uncertain... my career, future relationships, future living situations...  Ultimately I have to concentrate on the present, and find joy in all circumstances, even in the most difficult of times.

I need to keep a listening ear open to what God may tell me.  I'm trying to spend daily time in the Word and seek God harder than I know how.  Sometimes I fail, but that's when I'm learning to let it out and cry about it, but then not to dwell, but instead to move on and move forward, trying my hardest not to look back at my mistakes.

Harmony, if you ever read my blog, I can't tell you how much I miss you.  Zimbabwe is too far away.  It's so hard not to be able to get ahold of you on the spot, like when you lived here.  You give such great advice and possess so much wisdom.  God has gifted you over the top girl because you are not afraid to ask and use what's been given to you.  You have touched me on a deeper and more spiritual level than anyone.  Continue to use your gifts.  They are endless.  You use your name well, by bringing harmony to the lives of people around you and through your music.  I could go on and on, but bottom line... I miss you, and you are forever my sister in Christ.

Readers:
When have you felt uncertain about your future?
Did anything become clear to you?  If so, what?
Did you turn to anything/anyone for help?
If so, what help did that thing or person give you?
Did you turn to God for help?
How did God help you?
Do you have a friend, like Harmony for me, that has been there to give you encouragement and advice?
