Patience

God has been teaching me about patience lately. As I'm preparing for London, I have become antsy to leave the country and begin my new life now. However, I've realized God wants me to rest, seek Him and be patient during this time. I've been reading Christian books, enjoying fellowship with brothers and sisters at Mars Hill, and preparing myself spiritually to embark on this one year journey. It has been such a joy to read the word without school work to distract me. I've realized it really sets the tone of my day...it's truly His 'love letter' to us and we need to re-read it over and over again.

I'm excited for the upcoming adventures He has in store. For now, I will be present in the moment, enjoy summer in Seattle, and learn to take one day at a time. :)

A quote which has spoke to me:

"Quit worrying about how everything is going to turn out. Live one day at a time; better yet, make the most of this moment. It’s good to have a big – picture outlook, to set goals, to establish budgets and make plans, but if you’re always living in the future, you’re never really enjoying the present in the way God wants you to."

Blessings my friends.
