humbling ourselves to do what God wants!

hey everyone! im just sitting at home right now with my friend kelly! we just went on a walk haha and i think thats the most excerise i think i've had since i walked 4 miles with candace! haha. so first of all i wanna say i know God will speak through you in Charleston this weekend mr Allen && im prayin for ya! also, lady rams lax-GOOD LUCK TONIGHT! its y`alls last game, take 'em out :] haha. Pastor Chad i forgot to say this yesterday-im glad sanjaya got voted off too haha, and i cant wait to hear your sermon sunday morning!! anyway...on to my devotion from last night. i read in 1st Peter, verses 5:5-7 which say, "LIkewise, ye younger submit yourselves unto the elder. Yea, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility; for God resisteh the proud, and giveth grace to the humble. Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he will exalt you in due time: casting all your care upon Him; for He careth for you." i've been talking a lot about humbiling yourself lately, these verses tell us that God resists the proud but he gives grace to the humble and that we should do what God wants us to do, not what we want to do. We should only care what he wants for us, not what we want. I've been thinking about this a lot lately, like i want to be a forensic scientist [crime scene investigator] but i want to make sure this is what God wants me to do, b/c i dont want to go to college for this occupation if this isnt what God wants for me, you know? i want to follow where God leads me, so im gunna keep praying about it and see if this is for sure what he wants me to do. everyone should humble themselves before God and be subject to what he wants for us, because God loves us, and he only wants whats best for us :] so im gunna keep praying, and mr allen -im still asking anna to come, im gettin here there i promise!! haha
i love you all.
God Bless!
