My first year is coming to an end. I’m sad that I’m not going to be seeing classmates everyday; but I’m also very excited because I know this summer is going to be awesome. I know it would be pretty easy for me to go home and have a lazy summer… but that is not what I want to happen!
God has challenged me to give Him my entire day, not just the times when
I’m doing devotions, praying, or ministering at church events. He showed me that I have been keeping my relationship with Him in a fish tank… and it can only grow to the size of the tank. Yeah, I have upgraded the size of the tank this year, but that’s not enough. I have to release my relationship with God into the ocean; so that it can grow as much as possible. I’ve got to release Jesus into EVERY part of my life, not just the parts I’ve already set aside for Him. In order for my summer, my life, to be the best it can be, I have to let Jesus be in control of ALL of it. Life isn’t about me; it’s about Jesus and His plans.
I am going to be very deliberate about setting aside time to spend with Jesus everyday, but its not gonna stop there… I’m gonna let Him be in charge of EVERYTHING. I know Katy (my AP) will hold me to these plans. Although she is going to be ALL the way in Illinois this summer, we are going to talk on the phone or skype every week.
I know this summer is going to be awesome, not because of the awesome things I’m going to do, but because of the awesome things Jesus is going to do. I’m so thankful I get to be apart of His plans! (:
Look out summer… here I come!
