How you doin?

Wow, can't you tell I'm not much of a blogger? It's been 9 months since I've written a post...shu, I could've had a baby by now. But no worries, no bun in the oven for now.
What is causing me to post after such a long time, you ask?
Well, first off, I'm in a very contemplative mood...which means I might be a little emo right now.  Don't get me wrong, life is pretty awesome right now...I really don't have anything to complain about. 

For all you "Friends" fans out there....remember Joey? "How you doin?" Oddly he led me to a realization from his iconic pick-up line: I miss people asking me how I'm doin...but particularly how I'm doin with God.


In college, I had people surrounding me in my life asking on a weekly basis how I was doing in my walk with the Lord. And that doesn't happen anymore. I ask others, but others don't ask me. I guess it's just more important to me & more full-of-impact to me when I have people asking me that.


Why? Because it communicates in my language that they care about my walk with God.


I realize we are in different seasons for different reasons. But I really miss this aspect that I got to experience so much in college. 


I guess God is using me alot right now to be the one invested in people's lives & caring about where they are at in their relationship with Him. So really, I shouldn't be complaining. But is it too much for someone to ask me on a weekly, bi-weekly or even monthly basis...."Karis, how are you doing in getting to know & experiencing God in your life?"


I guess it boils down to this: I miss having at least one person who showed they cared about my own walk with God. 

God does bring people into my life that will be super encouraging with that...but it seems to be a one-time thing. But He does this when I do most need it. And that is why He is my Great Provider. 


I want to be discipled how God is using me to disciple.


But God knows what I need. And I need to trust Him on that.
