I want you to read what one of my students posted on her blog. This is awesome. When you have a bad day, or things don't go just right as a minister, and then you read this....you realize it's all worth it.
Turn the Radio Down and Just Pray...
Lately when I drive I have just turned off my radio and just talked to God... (without closing my eyes of course)...
It's a refreshing thing to do... I started really keeping up with it last week and do it every morning going to school and heading home... the radio isn't going to change... I've heard the songs a million and one times... I'll be okay.
I just talk to God about my day... people that I want to remember and keep praying for... and just my life.
I hardly take the time to thank him for Everything he does for me and has given me... I normally just go about my day not even thinking. Last Wednesday night opened my eyes to this and helped me to realize that no, I'm not perfect, but God doesn't expect me to be... he just wants me to live out my life honoring him.
Lately I've talked to God about my friends and family... praying for some, thanking him... I've talked about my problems, but not in a way that it's just whining and complaining.... I've talked about myself and being the best person I can be... I ask him to help me reach out to someone... have patience.. kind heart... not be selfish... not be ungrateful....
It's hard to cope and deal with these things but we have an AWESOME God that will help us through these rough times... we just have to come to him in prayer and just talk to him....
just try it... but if your driving or walking, please don't close your eyes!!!! :)
