Today, was a day of all to remember, Today i was working in the lab and working hard on new prints, and i lost my ipod, i sat it down somewhere and someone stole it or took it. I couldnt find and it and i frantically looked around for it and let security know, but i know it wouldnt turn up, and when i left school i came to my room and prayed for God's wisdom to be shown and for the right things to happen with it. Then i realized, what i was lacking was Trust. I need to trust that the situation is in God's hands, and i need to stop worrying about it. It's out of my hands anyways, Maybe it will turn up and maybe it won't. Secondly, I realized don't that it is just a material possession and my dad and i were talking on the phone he said that "i was hoping you realized this, this is not a show stoper, it is a thing." and i realized that, so then i just am hopeful but still in doubt about it. Thirdly, i have no doubt in my mind that God is real, last year it was is He real? Is, God relavant and my life? And now, God has been showing himself to me, believe it, through adventures in odyessy, some of the more emotional episodes have hit me at 3 am and God has been knocking at my heart, through this kid's program. Now i dont feel like there are any doubts. There are even better, things than Ipods, and other things, Also, there are other things, that i must relaize that there are lots of other people who don't have ipods, and why am i worrying about it? I mean yes, its a loss, but at the same time it's a gain, Im gaining things, and learning things that are important. Well thats all, for now, so there are many things to be thankful for and may things that need to prayed for.
" Don't store up treasures on earth! Moths and rust can destroy them, and thieves can break in and steal them. 20Instead, store up your treasures in heaven, where moths and rust cannot destroy them, and thieves cannot break in and steal them. 21Your heart will always be where your treasure is.-(Luke 12.33,34)"
Love in Christ!
