"He knows what He is doing with me" job 33:1

today was a range of emotions for me..

1) a sweet friends mom rushed to the hospital
2)lots to do today
3)day 11 of kids being out of school
4)an anxious heart
5)worked later for an extra family
6)phone died
7)confession @ bible study
8)mini break down
9)1 hour conv w/a new friend bearing one another burdens

as i walk away from another 24 yr old drama queen day, i have learned:

1)i have little patience and want to pray for more
2)baby steps- sanctification is a process (ugh)
3)i long for a time line
4)i think the lord has given me plan b
5)soo thankful we have a body of Christ and i don't do this alone
6)i think seasons in my life should last no more than 4-6 weeks (ive been proven wrong)
7)i want a quick fix
8)i want to learn to become content
9)thankful my heart of stone is breaking down.. i'm starting to feel again
10)God is not a God of confusion but of peace.. thank you lord!
11) i rely on myself way to much
12)i don't know how to receive unconditional love
13) if "love is patient, and kind" 1 cor 13 then i don't know what it means to really love others well.

14) Job 33:1 "He knows what He is doing with me, and when He has tested me, I will come forth as pure Gold."

15)ahhh 1)He knows what he is doing with me 2) he is all about some sanctification and not letting me settle for what i so long for COMFORT 3) "i will come forth" sweet reminder that we're not stuck in this season4) come forth as pure gold.. its crazy to think we will be better off, and look back thankful for the testing/discipline(hard for me to see right now, but i want to believe it!)

PTL for new mercies tomorrow..
