Prayer

You know, as I grow more as a Christian I realize how selfish, independant, weak, prideful and well, how much more I need to grow. Listening to Blake and Brian talk at dinner yesterday really got me excited about Africa. I have 2 days to teach, 1 day of review and 4 days of finals and grading....then rearrange my room and all Africa. Today I did some preparing for the trip and I got a real sense of how independant and controlling I am. I asked God to really grow me this summer, stretch my faith and make me dependant on HIM alone. PLEASE pray for me. I am very self-sufficient, but I need to be a learner, a helper, and a servant this summer. At church tonight Pastor Matt said he prays that God will keep him humble so he doesnt have to be humiliated. I pray that God will keep me weak so that I dont have to cry out in desparation! Brian assured me, God isnt an amature at this, He knows what He's doing. How great to be in the Father's hands!
