Sunday

So got the chance to hand letter's out about my upcoming trip to a few people at church today. Definitely exciting stuff, and just reinforces in my mind that God is going to take care of things.

I mean it's amazing how calm I'm becoming, even with deadlines and time frames that I have to keep to. Any time I start to get a bit concerned or worry starts to try to creep in, I've decided to just start worshiping God and thanking Him that its done and paid for. At first, to be honest, that was pretty hard. But its starting to become not only easier, but to be a somewhat normal response concerning my trip.

I mean to be honest, worrying about money or how things are going to work out or happen won't change the situation at all. That's for real one thing I'm learning through this process. I'm reminded of what it says in Mathew..

"Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment? Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they? Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?"

What's all that mean? Well basically, don't worry. It's not going to do any good. God can handle things, so just trust Him. It goes on further to say "seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.". Which is something I think we all can work on. And is for real something I'm learning to work on. Trusting Him, seeking Him, and believing that He'll take care of the rest.
