Is it okay?

Is it okay that I have absolutely no idea what my future looks like? Wow, things change so fast, I cannot keep up.

I only have two more weeks in Joplin. I'm not ready to leave.

If I were to summarize this summer, I would call it the summer of sitting at the Lord's feet. I'm learning to be like Mary. To have her thirsty spirit for Jesus. Her heart.

" Mary appeared three times in Scripture, in three different episodes of life, and on each occasion she was sitting at the feet of Jesus (Luke 10:39, John11:32, 12:3). This was no accident of writing or editing. The Holy Spirit expressly emphasised this as her way of life. She was always there when Jesus was around, listening and pouring her love out to Him. She was much more than a groupie who hangs around for the thrill of being near a celebrity. She was, rather, someone who could peer into the Savior's heart more clearly than most and understand His emotions." -After God's Own Heart, Mike Bickle
