What a day today! God blessed us here in Okinawa with a beautiful sunny day. As I sit here thinking about what to write, listening to O Praise Him by David Crowder Band on my Ipod, just soaking up the lyrics. In fact I had to stop and just worship God. I can't even describe the feeling inside me right now, I'm going to take a moment and spend sometime with God and finish this blog later.
It is crazy that God is so patient with us. I'm doing Living Beyond Yourself study by Beth Moore with the women at my church. God waited 120 years for Noah to preach and finish the ark before sending the flood to wipe out all of mankind (Genesis 6 and 2 Peter 2:5). 120 years of patience, wanting more to convert, but none did and God already knew that would happen, how patient our God is! I'm sorry 120 years blows my mind when some days I have patience of maybe 10 minutes with people around me. This is so showing me the Amazingness of God. Wow, all I can ask is God make me more like you. This will be my prayer for the day, God give me patience like You, that I may have the patience to wait 120 years. Amen

Be careful what you ask for...From someone who has been around a few years longer than you...patience is the last thing you ask of God. Love your posts...Your story is a answer to my prayer...The LORD is amazing!!! Mom
ReplyDeleteThanks Mom, but I really feel patience is what I need right now, especially since I want all the answers about this trip right now and I know that God will show me over time what he has in store for me.
