Week 9 and 10

Guidance...

"The Creature's end is God"

That line is simply profound.  That everything we do is meant for God, always.  I took that sentence and reworded it as such, "Stephanie's end is God, always." and I will tell myself that even if I'm doing something uncomfortable, or that I don't want to do, it's all for God.

This has greatly affected me for when I'm at the Delta I will miss my senior Grad Dessert at my church, the Seniors run the weekend at my church, and will not be able to help my family move.  For escrow just closed today and this weekend my family is moving into a new house (for the 1st time in the past 12 years!) and I won't be there.  With all that is going on in my life I have been rather sweet and sour about this upcoming weekend.  A part of me wants to just stay home and finish my homework and go to church and help my family move.  While the other part of me (that is winning to say the least) knows that God has something amazing in store for me this weekend and who am I to say no to God? And the line I created above, "Stephanie's end is God, Always" is giving me extreme courage to deal with the fact that I have to make tough decisions and that I will follow through and serve even if I must give up something to do it.

Worship...

"If Jesus is our leader, slavery to all mankind is a natural response to following Jesus in Spirit and in Truth!"

I am forever going to hold onto this line.  It will be my bread and butter, and will help me get through this summer.  It will encourage me, and remind me that I am not higher than anyone else, I am simply a servant placed in this world for God to use.  And being His servant requires that I be a servant to all mankind.  And I will always pursue this, even when I don't want to.

I can't wait to see you all this weekend....

With Lots of Love... Stephanie! :)
