Plans
FYI i didn't do any punctuation or capitalization checks.
Its funny reading back when i was talking about missions trips and stuff. Cause' at the time i thought God wanted me to go other places and things. But i realize now God didn't change, i just wasn't listening. In a way like i interpreted my own personal thoughts about things and decided they were from God. Obviously God wasn't going to let me go to Honduras or Mexico, but idk i just think its so cool. I wonder if Honduras hadn't fell through if God would have still lead me to Costa Rica ( I'm just thinking....).

Momentarily
I've been reading in John a lot lately, been yesterday I came across something I thought was really amazing. It was John 8:32 it reads " and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free". I was really thinking about this verse, and how many different interpretations may come about from it. I thought about it for a while, which I do not understand why because it is very straight forward. After a while of thinking about it, it came across to me that even when we lie, we are set free. But this freedom it provides is momentary. And in 1st Thessalonians 1:5 it says "for our gospel did not come to you in word only, but also in power and in the Holy Spirit and with full conviction". When we feel this freedom, after a time maybe short maybe long, you will get convicted. It happens to me a lot, my mom will ask me something and just because I am to lazy to form an i just answer yes.
Even with little stupid things like blurted out answers, God still convicts us. Lie is wrong but i think the intention in our heart is very powerful, almost as powerfully if not more then the lie. Its the creation of a deceptive thought. Just doing that hurts me the most. in proverbs is says "A lying tongue hates those it crushes, And a flattering mouth works ruin." wow. If we lie, it's showing "hatred" towards those we are lying too.
I don't know, just somethin' to think about.

Impatient
I have randomly become very impatient, its bad. And most of the things I am struggling to be patient with are not worldly. Is it because time has become real to me? But when I am doing things I love, like missions trips Time momentarily goes into extinction. But when I arrive home I realize how much I've done in two weeks. What about the other 351 days in a year?
wait.
It may sound wrong but life some times is a waste of time. We live in this world that wastes time constantly. Time is becoming in a way a burden to me. Time is becoming finite as contrasted with infinite duration. We have a limited time here but an infinite time in heaven. The Bible says that "there is a time there for every purpose and every work".
I have been planning on going on a mission trip this year, and I decided I wanted to go to Mexico with Tara Weber, but God has different plans. The world told me I wouldn't have enough money for the other trips but God told me different. Last night I realized I had been deciding to much of my life on my own. I realized I haven't been completely surrendering everything "........If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love, I gain nothing."
I prayed, and did not hear what i wanted to, God wants me to go to Costa Rica so,
I will go.
