Lost... Not the show

Well there are tons of stories,  some involving pictures, getting lost on the way to a church, helping to lead worship for First Baptist for the BCM, taking a group to the airport at 4:00 a.m. this morning and seeing some Moose to and fro, spiritual stuff, hopes and dreams.  I mean ton's of tall tails and no pictures to go with them, all because i forgot to pack my camera. Shocking i know. :)  Not to worry, i am going to be getting a package from my moo moo soon, i just texted her the address to send it to. 


All of that intro to say i am lost in what i should write, but this blog will be a great way to remind myself of all the stories to type out.  That will be tomorrow, yes tomorrow will be the start of some stories for all to read.

Plus i have been having some great conversations with some of my team mates, Lily and and even Jared, that stud among studs.

But i am lost... I have this great desire to write these deep and intricate blogs, but i want them to be Gods words.  I have this urge to grow in God more, but as i read the Bible i seem to get these amazing insights, i think about them and how cool they could be to write down and talk about, even make lessons for future talks but then i "forget" about them, lost to the recesses of my mind and only half thoughts.  So i guess i really just have a request for all you blog readers, Pray that i will be focused, pray that i will listen, pray that i will grow, pray... for whatever God leads you to pray.  Even though i am in a great place, physically and spiritually, i am lost in the fog of sleep and the unknown.

"Open my eyes Lord for what you have to show me, take away my laziness and let me rest in you. Living where you have me.  Focusing on the ministry that i am running towards.   Not worrying about relationships that could be or the potential future date.  Let me focus on where you have me, growing in love, humility, patience, listening.  God Help me to focus on you, not another, focus on your ministry and not myself or my talents.  Help me to rest, to listen, to love and laugh."

1 Corinthians 7:17  (The Message)

"And don't be wishing you were someplace else or with someone else.  Where you are right now is God's place for you.  Live and obey and love and believe right there.  God, not your marital status, defines your life.  Don't think I'm being harder on you than on the others.  I give this same counsel in all the churches."

As i was listening to 88.5 K-Love, a pretty good Christian radio station in Alaska, this verse and topic came up. It made me think, and that is what the prayer above is based on.  Honestly i would love to write more on this, something deep and spiritual, but all i get is "wait, listen, i will write it for you in time, humble yourself in me."  And i say "God, I am tired of waiting, but your will be done."
