Forever God is Faithful

So most of you know about how this summer is not going to work out for me. Yep, i will not get to work with those kids or work at my church. I emailed my Children's pastor Carol about when I should start and any detail i need to know before i get back and she responded and said that it's no going to work out this summer. I have mixed emotions about this...

I'm so dissappointed that this didn't work out. I was really looking forward ot this. Yesterday I was so angry. Angry at everything, i didn't want to talk to anyone really. But Micah (my awesome mentor) called me, we talked for a good hour or so about this. She encouraged me soo much! I'm so glad i talked to her. She was telling me that this is a good learning experience for me. Since im giong into ministry and i would love to work in a church someday, and this experience showed me to try and go through and not get peoples hopes up, with whatever i'm going to be doing. (that sounds very vague but here we are). Basically when i say im going to do something i know that people will be counting on me and this experience will encourage me to go through with it. I love micah and her wisdom!! :)

So I have no idea what im going to do this summer only God know whats in store for me now! This excites me but yet scares me. I'm the kind of person that needs to know stuff ahead of time. I know God has something awesome for me this summer it just hard to realize this sometimes. Tonight I went to My Pastors house for a college bible study and we sang Forever. I really spoke to me here are the lyrics....

Give thanks to the Lord, Our God and King
His love endures forever
For He is good, He is above all things
His love endures forever
Sing praise, sing praise

With a mighty hand and outstretched arm
His love endures forever
For the life that's been reborn
His love endures forever
Sing praise, sing praise
Sing praise, sing praise

Forever God is faithful
Forever God is strong
Forever God is with us
Forever and ever, forever

From the rising to the setting sun
His love endures forever
And by the grace of God we will carry on
His love endures forever
Sing praise, sing praise Sing praise, sing praise

I know God has something planned for me this summer because He is faithful, forever!!!! If he gives me a job or not it'll be His will and and he WILL be faithful!!!!
And my wonderful dear friend Emily really encouraged me too with this awesome verse....

Psalm 37:23-24--"If the Lord delights in a man's way, he makes his steps firm; though he stumble, he will not fall, for the Lord upholds him with his hand."

This is soo true I just also need to be faithful toGod and once I find out what i'm supposed to do this summer I will let you all know Thanks :)
