The Summer 2014 Race

I knew that over the last six weeks, God was going to teach me many things and guess what, He did.

The first thing he taught me what that as times get stressful or days get long, I need to take each day as it comes. God is with me every step of the way and I need to let him be God. Psalm 10 say, "Be still and know that I am God." I need to let him do his work.

Another I learned was that I'm not at Sandy Cove because I wanted to come. I'm here because God wanted me here. If Jesus is all you have, you have all you need. Day after day I am reminded that I am not alone in this race. God is by my side every step of the way. Together, we will finish this Summer.

The next thing is that God has never failed us and he isn't going to start now. When your car breaks down, that isn't God failing you, that is God showing you that your possessions have no worth when you finish the race of life. God will never let you down.

I also learned that it is time to let go of the past. All of my mistakes, I need to give to God. Isaiah 43:18, "Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past." The rest of your life begins now.

God is the reason you get up every morning and are breathing. He provides you with food, a shower, clean water, and a bed that will be there when you go to bed at night.

God helped me get through each and every day this Summer. Some days were easier than others but not a day was wasted. God is good, all the time.
