It’s happening again. Another new thing. This summer, notions of theater floated through my head. I asked, “Lord, is that You?” I searched local auditions, in case I was supposed to show up somewhere. Kept praying for the Lord to put my steps in place and found one audition that left me curious. Wrote it on the calendar weeks ahead and thought I’d see if on the actual day I still felt inclined to go. On that day, 3:00 would be decision time. Twenty minutes down the road and I was at the theater, without too many thoughts of turning around the car to cancel the whole thing. The auditions finished, our orientation meeting ensued, and here I am playing an adoption worker, an annoying nurse, and an attorney. In 2 short weeks, I’ve gone from elated to anxious and all in between. Yet the Lord has blessed me. This week, He has calmed the anxieties that nagged my brain. I still have lines to learn and movements to coordinate, but He’s eased my heart one day at a time. All along I’ve wondered if this was less about acting and more about meeting a certain someone. I love to see how God connects people. I could do without the nervousness that comes with new situations, but even first glimpse of witnessing Him at work makes my heart leap. Forward march.
