Lesson within a Lesson

It is summer time, and I am on summer break from school and I am loving it! No homework or anything it is great! I feel like I have a lot of time on my hands and I need to be doing something, but come on. I do start my first day of work tomorrow as a summer camp counselor, so I am ready and can't wait! I am sitting here listening to Hillsong, and I would have to say it is pretty much amazing.

I am also thinking about how this summer will be over soon then I know it and I will be making my journey to Charleston and staring school. I would have to say I am ready and can't wait to be there learning new things, meet new people and have everything underway and going.

Lately I have been really trying to get ready for next year and that means getting ready for those new things, and the things that may try and "shake" my world and faith. So within that getting ready I have been searching and studying Gods word for strength. In that studying I have found God to reveal a complete different lesson to me, but most of all it is a lesson that I need to learn in my walk with God, in my everyday life, also with getting ready for new things.

That lesson is patience...

I have come to the fact that I am so ready to start my new job if not that I can't wait to be in Charleston, now don't get me wrong those are two great things to be ready for, at least I think they are. In all of this preparing to working and be in Charleston I have learned that I may miss out. I may miss out on great things and life long lessons. I was reading in my bible and came across some highlighting in it was Psalm 46:10 "Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth."

The first thing in this verse that we are commanded to do it to Be still...

I need to have patience and stop in remember that I will follow the plan that God has set for me, I just have to remember to live the now, and take in every opportunity that I am able to get!
