God is great!

I cannot tell you how awesome our God is...

in case you didn't already know.

Which I'm sure you did,

just as I did,

but I'm just reminded daily and it is so awesome!

First of all I have this daily devotional book that I got when I went to Sharp Top with YoungLife back in September.  It's really awesome, and most of the time I'm SO good at keeping up with my devotions.  But then I have those weeks that I'm really bad about keeping up with them, so then one day I'll just start catching up.  Well today was one of those days!  Okay, now let me tell you how cool this is...

So today I had my interview to become a YoungLife leader... which I think went really well!  But I was really nervous about it... so of course I opened my Bible real quick before I left to start catching up on my devotions.  Starting with Monday... and what was it on? Worrying... 

"But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness,

and all these things will be given to you as well.

Therefore do not worry about tomorrow,

for tomorrow will worry about itself.

Each day has enough trouble of its own."

-Matthew 6:33-34

Ok, and then lately everything I have asked for I have received.  Because our God is so GREAT!

Well on to Tuesday's devotional and this is what I get:

"Ask and it will be given to you;

seek and you will find;

knock and the door will be opened to you.

For everyone who asks receives;

he who seeks finds;

and to him who knocks,

the door will be opened."

-Matthew 7:7-8

Wait... not done yet!  Now that my interview is done and I will be getting a call back about my what Eric thinks and what the next steps will be for me in YoungLife... I think this is reassurance to me.  YoungLife is a ministry, it is going to be hard, I'm going to be turned down by kids who are scared or who just don't want to have anything to do with me.  I am going to have to learn how to be courageous and this will help my FAITH in Christ become even stronger.  Which is going to be a wonderful thing!

"Consider now, for the Lord has chosen you to build a temple as a sanctuary.

Be strong and do the work."

-1 Chronicles 28:8-10

God proves to be awesome... always!  

Never give up!  :)
