that mid-week thing
I woke up this morning thinking how amazingly wonderful this week has been. I sat down, and opened my study bible (which I hadn’t had out all week so far, just my pocket one), and there bookmarked and highlighted was Micah 6:8 - “He has showed you what is good. And what does the LORD require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.” It was so cool to just have that put in front of me!
And then as our leaders’ meeting happened and things got discussed, I just felt myself becoming so irritated and impatient and tired - it hit me like a wall. On previous camps, the same thing has happened about now… it just all gets a bit much I guess.
edit: [it's funny - I wrote that first paragraph, and then started to write out the second one and just wanted to wallow in the frustrated feelings... but then I re-read my first paragraph and was reminded of how awesome things have been this week... and so...]
But you know what, stuff it - I’m so determined not to let it get me down or stop me from doing God’s work this week. I have some music to play in a few minutes after the kids have finished breakfast, and then I’m going to go spend some time praying and reading, and have me a quick nap before lunch. And then continue to let God use me to do his work here this week!
