Now let it be said, this verse is about God and not me =)
But wow, what a weekend. 1) I got to hang out with me best friends in the world. 
2) I was the second best man in my best friends wedding (oh Tim, I will get you). =)
2) I was the second best man in my best friends wedding (oh Tim, I will get you). =) 3) I got to dance the night away to Miley Cyrus and dueling banjos.
4) My sister and I were baptized together with our friends friends, and family around.
And now i am back to work holding signs….and that is okay. But it wasn’t at first.
To be honest, over the past two days there has been a lot of anger going on inside. I am scared of change. I am annoyed that i have already had to say goodbye to two of my close friends because i wont see them before January and so now i know i wont see them for the next two years because they live so far away.
I am frustrated that i am still in Vermont guarding man holes so that pedestrians wont fall in. I am annoyed that God has given me such good friends and I have to be 7 hours away from them. I am ticked that God has given me such a good family and we seem to be getting closer and closer and now i can only think about how in 3 months i will be the one leaving them.
and then…. I think….wow I am SELFISH
Man. who is this life about? what am I doing? I am running and running. None of these things i have done this weekend are bad. In fact they are all great things, but when I get caught up in the moments or the blessings of God, and take my focus off of Him, that is when I have a problem.
Ps 46:10 “Be still and know that I am God”
Ps 46:10 “Be still and know that I am God”
God knows the dangers of being busy. He knows what happens during changes in our lives. We as humans get crazy. Emmotions happen, and fear or excitement for the future enter into our lives and we can either turn that to God in submission, or we can get caught up in the moment and try and take over ourselves.
LORD, take these anxieties and slow me down. Let me go your pace, your direction, and where YOU want me to go.
I get excited about life, this trip, God, and even going to bed when I think about these things, because God wants us to be content in Him, no matter where ever He has us, or whatever He has us doing.
So this verse isn’t about stopping what we are doing, but finding stillness amidst all that we are doing in bringing it back to God.
so, Be still and know God
