"And we know that in all things God works together for the good of those who love him."
-Romans 8:28
well? today has been quite a day. not in the best way but i'm trusting God to the best of my ability. i'm praying for faith. i am trying to not take anything in my own hands. i know i'm being vague, by the way. but that's what happens when you blog. you can't share every little detail of your life. haha. it mostly is just fears for the future, financial stuff you know?
i trust my Father is taking care of His children. i trust He has better plans. i believe He is testing us to see where our hearts are at, and i know i want to prove faithful. i know i have a long long long ways to go when it comes to trusting God, but He's never let me down. and i'm confident He never will.
anyways, that's been today. but God is good. so why worry?
last night was a pretty cool thing. we have been focusing on outreach in the dorms, so last night a couple of us passed out cookies to people in the dorms and handed out tracts as well. we got some neat responses, one guy was assuring us that we made his whole day. :) a few people asked some questions about what church we go to, so that was neat to get the word out there. it's cool to think someday i will get to stand face to face with God and hear Him say, "well done, my good and faithful servant." every little thing we do matters, even passing out cookies for an hour. :) what is funny is i wasn't looking forward to doing it, i wanted to be selfish and get some sleep. but in giving up that extra hour of my precious sleep, God really blessed my evening.
hm, short vague post. whoops, oh well. :)
Ah, cool story about the dorms! Wow, you've inspired me to be more motivated to participate in stuff like that.
ReplyDeleteTrusting God is SO hard. I guess I just always think of Jeremiah 29:11. "'For I know the plans I have for you,' declares the Lord, 'plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.'"
I know, though, that it's easy to say the words, but harder to believe them. Stay strong, girl! Your faith honors God.
