This 4th of July I spend with friends camping! It was nice to get away from the busyness of life and just relax . Since we did not bring fireworks and could not find anyone who was shooting them off, we just played with sparklers. If you can tell in the picture, I actually drew out my name with the sparkler -- the camera was on a long shutter speed so it captured every way I moved my sparkler! So cool!
Needless to say the trip was a ton of fun and truely enjoyable. As we sat around the campfire, roasting marshmellows, we all started talking about the unfathonable greatness and largness of God. [These are 3 of my favorite things to do ever!] He is everywhere at every moment in time! Our minds were going a little crazy because we couldn't fit that into our brians.
It is like trying to put God in a box. You can't.It is sort of a humbling to remember that our minds can't contain His wholeness. It is also comforting knowing He is EVERYWHERE. Keeping this in mind, I know God will be keeping me safe as I travel this upcoming year. I know cause He's already there with me. Bah! God is bigger, and I can't even try to imagine just how big. Plain and simple.
So why is it so hard for me to trust Him sometimes? He will always pull through for exactly what is best for me. I think it will be a continual lesson of laying my pride aside and being patient for whatever He has instore for my life. That is a prayer request for sure.
