Mud

Where has God brought me in the past year?

My current life cannot be more of a blessing. I praise God for yesterday, today, and tomorrow. There is no reason I deserve the friends who pick me up when I am lost, beaten, and buried.

As I sit here, less than seven days away from graduation, I still feel like a freshman about to walk in the door of an unknown college campus, but this time I do not know where I will be spending the next four years of my life. All I have on my back are some clothes, shoes, and a bible. Tonight my prayer goes out to faith in Jesus Christ my Lord.

The hardest decision in man's life has to be the act of becoming emptied for a higher gain. Do you ever feel like you are waiting on God to "shake you out and be empty" before you move into the next phase of your life? You trudge along in path of mud only waiting to become stripped clean and back on the sidewalk again.
In the midst of indecision and confusion we must know God. He made us for today. The past week of "rough" spiritual journey doesn't compare to a life full of grace and growth in Him. God has made us for a moment such as this. We are prepared. We are ready to attack the battle with our weapons held high. In the middle of our "mud" God has already prepared us for this moment, and we must remember our weapons are bigger than only a few days of preparation. God has sharpened our sword for a lifetime. We have our weapons in holster and ready to attack. Mark. Lean. Go fight the good fight.
