Woe to me

I'll be honest, I was half awake when I wrote yesterday :p so Christopher would get off my back. I knew what I wanted to say yesterday but after I snoozed after 1-2 mins, I forgot my whole point.

I have been running around too much. Yesterday I spent 4hrs cooking fried rice, it could've fed 40-50 people. I don't have too many moments of peace because I am always in the midst of serving or always busy trying to get something done.

I am being exhausted because I am not giving Christ the time to give me rest. This is how this passage relates to Elijah. He had been going around and doing things in the name of God. At the end of the day, he flat out said to God in verse 4 "It is enough; now O LORD take away my life, for I am no better than my fathers."Elijah man of God got worn out, it was not until he went into the cave until he was refreshed.

So whats the point? Turn off the noise - which includes visual noices such as facebook, aim and such when you read your bible and spend that time meditating on the areas of our lives we need to surrender over to our Lord Jesus.

What was I saying yesterday? I am worrying about getting into the college of nursing, I am worried about leading my smallgroup, I am worried about my living situtation for next year. The problem is I am not spending my time in the quietness to let God speak. If I was letting him speak, I would be reminded of his promises - the ones he promised to us when we would let him be Lord of all.
