To Struggle is to Lean and Learn

Its funny, I am really starting to believe that if a day is without new drama - something is wrong! God is definitely teaching us a lesson in patience and trust - DAILY. Sometimes I find myself looking forward to a time when things might "settle down" - then when I really think about it, I realize when those days do come, I will probably be bored and begin to miss these drama-filled days here at Eagle Rest.
I used to crave stability and wanted my little house with a front porch and a big tree in the yard and now I dont care so much about that - I just want to know where we are headed! But, if I keep myself in check, I realize that God is the Master and I am just the servant - He doesnt have to show me anything ever. The times He does reveal a lesson or a reason are blessings and I should remember them as that istead of feeling that I deserve an explanation for why I am going through this or that. See, if I am truly trusting, it wont matter. The drama will just appear to be a part of the journey towards knowing my God more and more before I am with Him forever.
