Its been a while since i've written anything here, but life has gotten a better hold on me than my computer. Things have been really crazy lately. I've had to rearrange my schedule to make it work so that I wasnt overloaded, and I'm trying to find free time in other places. I have the privelage of serving the Lord in the area of worship leading this year in our chapels and I'm working with some phenomenal musicians! There is a lot to do, yes, however it is all worth it.
Lately I've been praying for patience. I think trials behind that are self-explanatory. God has definitely been testing my patience, and will continue to do so until he feels that I've learned patience. That will probably be never knowing myself. But with that being said, most of it is waiting to see is where the Lord is going to take me next year. He hasn't told me yet, and that's cool. Because when he does I'll follow. Praying for patience has me on the edge of my seat to see where he will lead. last week while I was doing my devo's, i came across MANY verses that simply said "wait for the Lord". It's funny though, because reading that made it easier to be patient. It was like God was saying "I know what i'm doing. Just sit back. Follow me. Embrace me. Do what it takes to follow me and when the turn comes up, i'll tell you left or right".
Other than patience, having lots on my plate for school and extra stuff takes a toll. i have 5 courses that are giving me 9 credits. usually thats 15. i have the work load of 15 credits, plus im an RA (residence assistant) which involves spiritual mentoring, and leading the chapel teams with one group of friends playing every week, 2 times. Needless to say, after the first 2 weeks there is no way that i should be on my own two feet. The Lord has graced me with strength to get through everything that i've needed to. He even provided lots of down time where i can just rest and be 'lazy' for lack of a better term....well that kinda is the best term.
Right now i have about 30 minutes before i go for another afternoon of music. Im really loving the fact that i get to serve God doing something that i LOVE doing. Who would have thought i could go to school for piano, and guitar, and spend my life worshipping my Saviour. Its really amazing. I will hopefully be able to keep in touch with all of you through out the year!
All For HIS Glory
