So clueless...

I'm not sure if any of you are priveledged enough to be in the public school system this time of year but IT. IS. CHAOTIC. I have been so busy with school and it seems that I have a perpetual to-do list that grows more and more each day.

As I had one of my hastened quiet times this week (during which I usually justify half-hearted prayers and bible readings with minor exhaustion), I realized that I had really strayed from asking God to prepare my heart for the summer. I have rarely asked for financial provision and abundant blessings for the individuals in Kenya. I have almost never prayed over L4L. This is unacceptable.

God is going to use this summer in many countless ways, and also use others to bless me. I am certain however, that he is already working to bless me with perspective. Paper grading, dicipline reports, lesson plans, copies, paperwork, and meetings are so insignificant when compared to our mighty God and the way he wants to move in us and through us. It's my prayer today, and everyday, that I never place mundane, daily tasks higher on my "to-do" list than making much of the God that I serve. I welcome the members of L4L, friends, family, and followers of this blog to hold me accountable for my narrow-mindedness and lack of spiritual focus.
