Rejuvenation

“But as for you, brethern,
do not grow weary in doing good.”

-the apostle Paul -

Christ says in Matthew 11:28-30:

“Come to Me, all who are weary ad heavy-laden, and I will give you rest.
Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble
in heart, you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My
burden is light.”

Man has this been true in my life this week. Last Monday I told God that I was tired and didn’t know what to do. What am I supposed to do when I grow up? I was tired. I thought that I couldn’t go anymore. I was convinced that I didn’t make a big difference in God’s kingdom. I asked God to be clear to me and to give me strength. The very next day my drywall-guy John tells me that because of our conversations he accepted Christ in his heart. Isn’t that the greatest thing you can imagine someone telling you? It is to me. Man did God tell me that my labor is not in vain. God is good. and what an honor to play such a vital role in someone’s life. This has just lifted my spirit. I know that God is not done with me yet. He will continue to use me and that is and honor and and inspiration in it self. I am rejuvenated by His Spirit daily. Halleluja. Praise be to god.

Uncertainty

Let us therefore come boldly
to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace in time of need.

(Hebrews 4:16)

Amy has received several invitations for residency interviews now. Chicago is the one that she seems most excited about. I am very excited that these developments are taking place. However it has been very hard on me for the last few months. I know that we are moving away from this area in May 2008 but I don’t know where. At times I find it very hard to participate in what is going on here, because I know that it will not last for us. I cant commit to anything I seem to have given up on everything and yet I don’t let go. It is so double. The Bible says that people without a vision perish. I guess that that is where I find myself. This uncertainty of where we will go in May is just hard to plan around. What kind of job will I have, will we find a good church, will i find friends like the ones that I have here, where will we live, etc. I have tons of questions and no answers. All I can do is trust in the Lord, after He is faithful and Good.
