Tuesday, I shared a little about the information overload, this past week I have begun to prepare for 5602 Reformation to 20th century history. Initially this felt like just adding to the overload. So I began to pray for God to reveal himself through the words of others as they encounter God and to encounter Him in their words. God was faithful in this. As I read some of Luther’s writings on the doctrine of justification by faith I found God asking me the question of faith. “Do you trust me?” I say yes because I followed You to WVU. But that doesn’t seem to be enough. I have to somehow give up this information overload somehow and trust that He will provide me with the answers. This can not mean do not read the material but somehow trust that He will guide my thoughts and give me the words to share through the Spirit. I don’t understand this yet but it is riding hard on my heart.
This weekend we have our Winter Retreat. I have worked hard to get all my school work accomplished so that I can focus on ministry this weekend. This was mostly successful.
