Patience.

Going into an education and ministry profession (or any profession for that matter) patience is a HUGE factor that we all need to master. I've recently had the privilege of working with a group of friends to film a short film, "Quietus." We've had fun working together but we also get on each other's nerves. Being one of the main driving forces for the film, I often want to go full speed and get things done swiftly with ease. However, not everyone necessarily has the mindset. In this one case, I ended up embarrassing myself out of frustration and anger. When working with a group of students, you must learn to be empathetic and patient towards the others' feelings and thoughts. Not everyone has the same passion and drive as you and it's often hard to accept that. But if you keep patient and work with your group, your outcome will be so much better. 

Tips on Being Patient:

1. Pray about everything. We are working on God's time, not ours. He knows what's best for us and will do what needs to be done. 

2. Keep your cool. Watch what you say and do when you're frustrated and impatient because people will see your reaction and remember it. 

3. Don't walk outside in your underwear because your friends will lock you out and you will get mad.

Oh, the Places You'll Go!

This week at VBS (Vacation Bible School) I realized many things. Things I had always known, just never really pointed out. (1) I'm going to miss my church family so much when I move off to college. Through choir, youth group, orchestra and everything else, these people have been a family to me and I wouldn't trade them for the world. It has been a blessing to be a part of Air Line Baptist Church and I am so glad that God brought my family there. (2) I'm going to college?! Of course that was a no-brainer. This will begin a new journey for me and I strive to meet God's will with my life. 

Our theme verse for this year's VBS was 2 Timothy 1:7. "For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind." Through the lessons, worship, and this verse God spoke to me and was very powerful in my life over the course of the past few days. I finally realize that I shouldn't be afraid of my faith and should not be fearful, but strong and courageous for He who made me. Life can be a roller coaster; but with God, we can conquer any obstacle in our path. I took this glorious opportunity to get back on track on where I need to be because I know it only gets harder from here. I encourage all of you to stay in God's word DAILY and pray pray pray pray pray. Our paths can be extra bumpy at times but remember "for from Him and through Him and to Him are all things."

"You'll get mixed up, of course,

as you already know.

You'll get mixed up

with many strange birds as you go.

So be sure when you step.

Step with care and great tact

and remember that Life's

a Great Balancing Act."
