Back in Indiana
Well, the first day of my mission trip to Indiana has consisted of getting up and going to work, and now as I sit here on the work computer typing, I wonder what things God has in store for me during this time. I know that He is the one who orchastrated my return here, and I am sure that He has great plans! I had an awesome ride back up to Indiana yesterday. The reason that it was so awesome, was because of constant prayer. My only hope is that today can be just like yesterday as far as prayer goes. I need to be honest, lately I haven't been "feeling" very spiritual, but I know that we are not to go off of feelings, but on God's promises. When I got back I decided to go and see my dad. He was busy working on stone last night so I didn't get to talk to him much. I invited him to come to the lake but he was too busy. Last night I ended up staying with my brother and his friend as they ate fish, I layed on a hammock that was nestled between two trees by a lake on our property. As I watched my friend and my brother just talk to each other, I was struck with an overwhelming sense of the futility of materialism, and where it will take us. Without God life has little meaning to it, and I have slowly begun to realize that more and more. Even though it is not easy being back here, I know that this is where God has called me to be and He will help me through the rough times in my life. No matter what, constant prayer is a must. Friend, if you are going through a rough time, just remember that God loves you and wants you to get through whatever you are going through. Sometimes the things that God calls us back to are not the easiest to deal with, but if you and I put our hand in Jesus hand and talk to Him, He will get us through.
