One week from tomorrow my lovely Serena Rachel Robinson will be returning from Grenada. The thought of her homecoming has made me so incredibly excited but it has brought on a different emotion. I absolutely 100% do not regret my decision of coming home. I have never once questioned that choice. However, when I came home I guess I just expected to be doing more. I think I had convinced myself that by coming home God would give me a reward and make all my dreams come true within like 5 days of coming home. What did I learn in Grenada again? Oh right, that God knows the timing and He knows the plan and I should be so misguided to say that I think I can predict Him.
I'm reminded what God told me at the end of last year when He called me to leave Surrey Pentecostal Assembly and told me just to go to church for a while. To get filled because I was running myself dry. I didn't know that was for the year 2010 when I started it. I think if I knew that God would be doing this for the whole year, I might not have done it at all. I love to work with teens. I LOVE to work for the church. It's been my life since I was a kid. I was always helping out in every area of the church.
So I might be a intern junkie. I might be a control freak that wants to help out with anything I can get my hands on. What did I learn this year? Calm down. Worry less, live more. Maybe its good just to sit in a church service every once and a while and just soak in the Word of God and His people. This has been one of the hardest seasons of my life and God knows it.
Next semester marks the semester where I get involved again. I'm unbelievably excited and I hope that when I dive in I can remember what I have learned this year.
