Every Little Area

I know I promised to be short, but I just had to share God's faithfulness.  Be blessed.
Last week has been an incredibly busy week.  I had the privilege to attend an OCC nConnect conference in Belize. Awesome speakers from around the Caribbean and the US taught on topics like conflict resolution, personal life of a leader, and coaching. These are things that every leader needs to hear from time to time.  I wasn't unfamiliar with the topics, just that God will always have an area He wants to mold me and teach me with truths that I hear.  He was faithful to minister to me and shape me even more into who He wants me to be.
The part that was amazing for me was viewing God's faithfulness in helping me to get ready for the few days away from my family and responsibilities.  That started to unfold from last weekend, when I realized that I had a lot of stuff to accomplished before I left.  I was starting to get overwhelmed.  I didn't see it happening at all, and I couldn't even begin to try and figure out a way forward.  Then I started to feel a bit stress out which came with temptations of who to blame.  All that happened in a few minutes, and through that whole dark thought process, I was able to hear God's voice inviting me to trust Him with forming a schedule that will work for me.  My first thoughts were, "really! You, God will show me a schedule?"  His response caught me off guard; "You won't see the schedule, Just trust Me as to what to do first, second and so on, and you will see it all get done."  Thinking back to times when He has kept His word, it was not hard to let go and trust Him.
So....I did.....I let go.  He showed me what to do first and I did that and completed it. Then the second, ....  He also navigated me with the things that I had to get done alongside these major projects.  The peace I felt was and still is indescribable. God really did it.  I always knew He was able, but to see Him navigate me through my schedule that I see myself as responsible for was humbling and amazing.  He cares about every detail of my life.  His invitation to abide in Him extends to every area of my life, every day of my life.  I was able to leave to the conference knowing that I accomplished what I needed to so my family functioned without me.
God cares about all of your life also.  Let Him lead you and teach you.
