Well, I don't have anything new to really report. Classes are going well. We are winding down for the week, and have one more class tomorrow. Today we had Dr. Tacketts class. It was really good! We talked about the sphere of the state, and the states role in society. Dr. Tackett is full of so much knowledge and wisdom, and he is a wonderful teacher. I am so thankful to get to sit under him and other teachers who have a heart to see the next generation rise up to know and understand the truth, and to live lives that are attractive to outsiders. One of the verses Dr. Tackett has emphasized is from Colassions 4:5-6 which states, "Live wisely among those who are not believers, and making the most of every opportunity. Let your conversation be always full of grace, seasoned with salt, so that you many know how to answer everyone."
Lets, see what else have I been up to. It has been snowing all day, but luckily has not accumulated. I am hoping to drive home tomorrow, so I am praying for safe travels, and good roads. I have been working a lot at the Community Bible Study headquarters. The ladies that I work with are so sweet. We are preparing for two big conferences coming up: a leadership training and leadership conference. I was there for almost 5 hours this afternoon working on some things!
Today I feel my heart being anxious. Anxious about the future, and just some uncertainties. I hear the Lord telling my heart over and over to "not be anxious about anything, but be in prayer" In Philippians 4:6-7 it states, "Do not worry about anything, instead, pray about EVERYTHING. Tell God what you need, and THANK HIM for what He has done. Then you will EXPERIENCE God's PEACE, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you LIVE in Christ JESUS." I need to meditate on this today. God brings peace and comfort. He can handle any and every situation. I cannot trust my own feelings or anxious thoughts, but I have to put my trust in the Lord, knowing that He will work for the good of those who love Him, that He will make a way where there is no way. He is faithful and good. All is promises are yes and amen. I have to rest in His peace tonight, knowing that the God I love and serve is in control of my life, and nothing is too hard for Him to handle. This gives me such assurance.
Romans 15:13
May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.
Thank You God for your peace that passes ALL Understanding. I rest assured in your love!
