God

We had our youth retreat this weekend. I went into it expecting to just barely make it through and be done with it. But God had bigger plans. Despite all the up's and downs of emotions and circumstances I've been going through, God tells me that He wants to use me. He gave me words to say to the young men in my room this weekend. I feel the need to get into full-time ministry, working with teenagers.

God has been pressing on my heart such a need to seek His face. This morning in our praise rally he softened my heart, yet again, to who He is. He will never give up on me! No matter if I am feeling bogged down by everything going on, He is there. I have a picture in my head--I walk out on the stormy waters toward Jesus but I look around at everything going on around me and I start to sink. He reaches out and picks me up. This is exactly what is happening in my life. Praise God!

Despite me, God will use me. Praise Him for that! Though my body is weak, God is strong.
