whirlwind

i am sitting in starbucks...dowtown. tonight i am helping another store with inventory and so i will be working late into the night, er, early in the morning. its ok though, because lately i havent been sleeping. so much is going on right now in my life. from the outside looking in you probably wouldnt guess it, but there is so much that the Lord is doing. he has so specifically answered a prayer through the phone call of a dear friend. i had a meeting with the missions pastor at church today about the Sudan trip that i have applied for. that went so gloriously, there is no other way to explain it, other than the fact that the Lords hand was all over it. and then today, just about 20 minutes ago, i got another phone call from the lady i have been living with for the past several months...she got a job. praise Christ for the job, but sadly, she is moving. 2 hours away. and i know the Lord wants me here...and so i cant move. i dont want to move. i want to be here, to do life here, i want to see what the Lord is doing and what he will do with what he has started in me since i moved here...

so needless to say, its been an emotional whirlwind. -i've got to learn to trust the Lord, and he is being ever so gracious in teaching me that he is trustworthy and faithful...that he is good, and just, and righteous. and most of all he is completely sovereign in every part of my life...every part. and for that, i am so thankful.

thought for the day:

what is your spiritual gift?
(paha, no one will answer, but whatev, maybe one will...)

know that you are loved...dearly, by the creator of the universe.
