Man. What to write about. My life has been good.
I'm almost done with my Jr. year of College and stat internship I this fall and Student Teaching in the spring! -- Crazy.
Today I worked with the kids at my church -- I'm helping with the K-1 group. That was fun but I only started last week and then when I got there today... I was informed that I would be working by myself. God and I worked it like a boss but at the same time I was really nervous (and kinda overwhelmed). It's amazing how time doesn't stop even when life happens.
God has taught me a lot this semester and here are a couple of them that I want to share with you.
1) being a leader of the team does not mean that it's your team/group... It's God's team. No one else has it in better control than the Father.
2) In my weakness, He is stronger and in that God extends grace that covers me. The actual verse says: But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me. -- 2 Corinthians 12:9
3) God romances us. We sing songs about how God loves us and that His love is enough but... I don't think it really imprinted in my brain until this last Saturday. It struck me as I was folding laundry. Even when He knows the outcome... when we're hurting, confused, pissed, joyful, or content God is hurting or rejoicing with us. He loves us to the extent that we don't know. People say this all the time but until it becomes personal... it doesn't always make sense.
4) He's not done with me.
