Ever have one of those days when you think of all the things that have left you on the low side of the curve?
Yesterday was one of those days. A day of 'nots' which leaves my stomach in knots.
College - I wish I would have saved for Phyllis's college. Sure we are able to make it work, no student loans is our goal, but I wish that I would have saved for it! A lot of people I know have 529s, money saved, me... eh :/
Mission Trips - a ton of people I know have been living Matt 28 traveling all over the world, making disciples because of Love. This year are my first! Heck, I didn't even start going on mission trips, local, until 5 years ago.
Not married - even though people don't mean to, I think that it's natural that friends who have spouses all hang out together, it's a common thing. Totally get it, but don't always like it.
My house was a mess, my basement needs cleaning, I'm fat, blah blah...
And then while praying, God reassured me that that I was not created in 'nots' but that I was created for glory, His, and 2 Cor 12:9 But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.
His Word, His Love. WOW! Totally changed my perspective.
College - sure I may not have saved, but His provision is all over the place! No student loans, we have the money! YAY!
Mission Trips - I've been on 4 local, going on 2 overseas this year, + one local. I am going in His timing.
Not married - whatever, there are benefits to being single.
Have time this weekend to clean, and I will make a dent. Also hoping to work outside and get some plants moved, get the weed barrier down.
Thankful that He is a God of I AMs not I am nots.
