Bump on the Road

This, I have got to say, is probably the hardest semester I have ever experienced. 5 classes, filled with out-of-class work, not to mention work and other commitments. It is now week 10, and I AM STILL trying to find motivation! God has been so good. When I look back, I still don't know how I was able to make it these past 10 weeks, and now we're down to 6, and I am worried as a I. do. not. know. what. I honestly believe this is one of those trials that James talks about in his first chapter..You know, the ones that are meant to test your patience, and your faith. Yup, that's it; and believe when I say that I feel like I currently may be feeling like the double minded man who feels unstable right now (faith is lacking!!!).

So I am sitting here- knowing full well that the God I serve is a mighty God, while my mind is aware of that, it hasn't transitioned to my faith. Because every now and then, I look ahead, and see this huge mountain, and trips over....but how long is that going to go? If you are reading this right now, please pray for miracles!!! I really just need to make it this semester and I know everything else will fall into place. I have soooooooooooooooooo many commitments on my plate (leading a spiritual group on campus, doing work for a prof, working with another spiritual group on campus, 5 classes, and outside commitment dealing with those classes. I am happy that Thanksgiving break is around the corner. Maybe I'll get some time to take a deep breath? I pray so.

So here's the deal: Starting tomorrow (well today). I am going to give God 3 HOURS of my time throughout the day. This mountain has GOT to get out of my way and the only way to get it out of the way is to call on the One who built it. Here's how this is going to work. First week of November: (Monday-Tuesday)- 6am-7am, 11:45am-12:45pm, 10-11pm (Wednesday-Thursday)- 6am-8am, 11-45am-12:45pm (Friday)- 6am-7am, 10-midnight In total, I will be giving God 15 hours of my time this week. I am confident by faith that I WILL HAVE A TESTIMONY BY THE END OF THIS SEMESTER. COUNT ON IT!!!!
