It's been a hectic week.
Graduation. Followed by a steady string of things to do, including: baseball games, jam sessions, fixing (or trying to) a car, a graduation celebration, bowling, a movie date, canoing, and work. And to top it all off, I have to be packed for Ecuador by tomorrow. By 6:00 AM.
All of this is fun of course, but exhausting. I already feel like I need a break from vacation. There is one lesson, though, that stuck out to me from my experiences this week. I'm glad all of this is not what I live for. Bowling with friends, movies, hanging out- it's all great, but I don't see how anybody finds any true peace in it. If I based my life on what I was going to do next, I wouldn't be a very happy person at all. I love to do stuff and have adventures, but only through/with the peace of Jesus Christ. In Him I find true contentment, and in Him I find my rest. And thank God for that!
I should probably be packing, so I'm soon to go. And I'm ready to go, because Ecuador is a place teeming with the movement of the Spirit, and I'm eager to see how God is working in the lives of our brothers and sisters in Christ. Praise the Lord, because He is the ultimate peace and comfort!
