Speechless

You know how sometimes you are just left speechless? Well in the past two weeks or so, I have been left speechless. Last night I had begun my quiet time and was having a hard time focusing on what was going on so I stopped and spent some time talking to God, just telling Him was on my heart and just prayed that He would help me focus. So I read the little quiet time thing and got something really big out of it. I was laying in bed thinking about what I had prayed about and just what the devo thing said. It said that your priorities need to be God first, God second, and God third until its just you and him. God removes people from our lives so its just you and him. I really feel like that has happened in my life. God answered one thing I had prayed about and it wasn't what I wanted but thats how God did. He answered prayer about things I was confused about as well. I laid in bed last night and it all just clicked! I went and told my brother about it and then came back to bed. I started to pray, but i didn't even know what to say, I could only think how awesome God is, and just how He works in mysterious ways! Its just so awesome!!!

"Don't worry bout a thing..."

Everyone worrys. Worry about their apperance, if they passed a class, family and friends. I have a big problem with worrying. Last week I put in some job applications and pretty much figured hey just for kicks i probably wont get it anyways. That was a dumb thought because a day later I got a call for an interview. I got really excited about it. The day of my interview I got dressed up and just went over some things in my head like remember to smile, be polite, and just dont screw up. Well I got there did the interview and the lady doing the interview said she had to go talk to the guy who actually did the hiring and that we would probably call me back in. At this point I have high hopes, I was imagining what my reaction would be when they told me I got it and everything. So in a few minutes the lady comes out and says, "Congrats you got the job!" jk she didn't say that. She came out and said that they would have to check their "availablitiy". wahtever that means... So I said thank you have a great day and walked out. My brother was out there and I was like well I don't know if i got it. We got home and then I started thinking and WORRYING about the whole thing like I shouldn't have gone I shoudn't have a job I have other things to do... I don't know how this is going to fit. Then I had the thoughts well I could have a job I'd have my own money it'll be great. So I was really wishy washy and then I read my devo that said don't worry what tomorrow holds.... you know the verse. So whenever I thought about it I was like don't worry about it God is in control. I tried to keep with that attitude. Then I read Oswald and it was about the same thing. Worrying is a sin. It comes "from planning without God." That hit me hard! God wrote the book of my life, why can't I trust that He will save the day and that it will all work out how it needs to!! I think its one of those easier said then done. I have been trying to keep this in my head when the littlest bit of worry comes into my head!!
