I'm currently directing a children's Christmas program of around 100 children.
There have been a lot of details and things that I've had to work through; and many times I've became very stressed about how I was going to get it all done. Earlier this month I still was writing the script, it wasn't finished when I wanted to have it done. I didn't even know what to write. I was nervous about what people would think...would they look down on me?...or would they hate the program?....
And was it foolish of me to even try this?
Finally I couldn't take it anymore. I stopped and cried out to God. I told Him to write the script, change the hearts, open my heart to all He had in mind for the program and be Lord of every detail. It is for His glory, make me merely the tool.
And He is.
A Peace that passes all understanding. The only time I've known it is when I quit being in control and I for that short time quit trusting in myself and begin to trust in God. Then I have that deep, deep, quiet peace.
I have learned in yet another way that God's time isn't mine and that His thoughts are much higher then mine.
But the program isn't for another six weeks…so please pray that I would continue to grow and trust...
God is Good, praise His Name
