I'm leaving in less than twelve hours. Excitement and anxiety don't always mix well, so I'm praying for peace that passes all understanding. Why wouldn't I be anxious? I'm starting something new, oooobaaammmaa's eeelff. But not really, because God is with me, and I'll meet new people soon enough.
Sleep is high on my priorities right now, so I'm going to let it rise to the top. Consequently, this post is short. I hope that on these plane rides I will become more Christlike. And then for the next nine months, more Christlike. Closer and closer to who I was always meant to be. Nearer to who God is shaping me to be. Please, pray that over me real quick.
I love this promise that is for all believers, and I claim it by the grace of Christ.
"May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through. May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. The one who calls you is faithful and he will do it."
1 Thessalonians 5:23-24
Take an objective look at yourself over the past few months. Isn't God working in you? Breaking you free from bondage, bringing you nearer to Him, igniting PASSION in your heart to know Him and love Him. Ask your Father in heaven to help you see yourself how He sees you. Don't settle for guilt, shame, disappointment. Fight for a clear perspective on who He says you are.
