    Encouragment on Growing (a testimonny on waiting on the Lord and growing in Christ)

    Yesterday I was facing a hard day at school (bible school) as I was studying critical thinking, many details on how to do a paper "the proper way" In true University style. I have learned about scholarly sources all kinds of details about plagiarism, and ....Well it's all quite detailed, formated, cut and dry. I am a free thinker who loves to pray, be creative, and Uh, guess I pride myself a little bit on "being free spirited" and walking inthe spirit.I believe in pray, open your mouth, and let the river flow!

    Details that I am experiencing in school right now are a difficult challenge for me. I cannot deny I need it, I just realy didn't WANT to grow some more!
    I am ready to be a big girl now, and go out and do more things for Jesus! You know the frustration, right?
    "Let's get this show on the road" we say (to God) year after year after agonizing year! "Gosh daddy, have I not grown enough yet?" "Can I drive the car now, please?" "Tell me again how to adjust the mirrors," Dad says. "BUT all the other kids are driving Dad, they never check the mirrors! They've been driving for a long time now! I am careful! Please Dad Please?" "Take the car," he says, "show me again what you know, but only around the block." "Oh Gosh Daddy," (Humph) "This just isn't fair!" (sigh) I've been at this for thirty years now. God has let me "drive the car" spiritually speaking. I've ran into a few things, bumped into others at times, and sometimes don't even go exactly the direction he says. I am learning! One day he will say; "You're ready girl" for a big long road trip!' "I am sending you out."

    Until then. he just said I have to understand how the entire car works! (No exceptions). And maybe the other kids won't have to do this but, I do! (for some reason I can't understand right now) But guess what? I will before it's all over, understand perfeclty why My Father Required so much of me.

    with love and prayers! Heb 6:11-13 And we desire that each one of you show the same diligence to the full assurance of hope until the end, 12 that you do not become sluggish, but imitate those who through faith and patience inherit the promises.

    When we stand before Jesus, he is not going to ask what everyone else told you to do....
    He is going to ask "what did I tell you to do?" Press on!
