On the Homestretch

On Saturday, I got out my handy, dandy planner and planned out the REST of my summer. Literally day by day--hour by hour for some days. I created many to-do lists that are long and a little overwhelming, I must say. Why did I settle down to do this tedious/annoying/not fun task, you ask? Oh, just because summer is OVER in like 23 days. I got word on Saturday that I will be moving in August 2nd...haha what? It seems like summer started just a few days ago. I had all this time to shop, to get work done, to craft, etc. and now I have so little time...not to mention I'm having surgery in 3 weeks so my summer is cut even shorter! I'm taking a class, I'm working, I'm leading a Bible study, I'm a daughter, a friend/girlfriend, and a sister...so little time! Now don't get me wrong, I am SO excited to move back to Auburn. I've been ready since I moved out. But...I just thought I had more time! AH!

Soo...what is the point of all this? What is God teaching me? How does this prove His sovereignty and His faithfulness? While I'm still learning this, I know God is sovereign in that He is humbling me: I can't do it all and I have to rely on my Father. All of these things are His will--His timing. He is teaching me patience--I asked for a patient heart this summer, after all. He is faithful because upon my reliance on Him, things will get done when I just let them and stop worrying about them. Sounds silly- but it is not. He is my Father and my provision--I can rely on Him for ALL things.

OKAY-Well, that was my five minutes of off-time. BACK TO WORK FOLKS! Have a great Monday/week! Rely on God's provision!! Love ya.
