Its rainy today and it's made me feel like I should be doing absolutely nothing. Like I'm just waiting for something big to happen, like the snow coming. Sometimes I feel like I have rainy days in my faith where I get tired of waiting and so I curl up and do nothing. I don't talk to people and I don't even wear a smile on my face that says 'Hey, I'm a Christian!', I just sit and do nothing.
Enter into the picture my desire to go to the missions field. I really want to go NOW, in other words, I'm tired of waiting. My rainy day has come and its come to stay and for a while I gave up and decided not to do anything. But my plans are changing and I'm going to "worship in the waiting" and continue to give God glory even though its rainy and cold and I'm waiting for something big to happen. I can be doing things now to further the kingdom and I may learn more than I'd ever dreamed and God will continue to bless me even while I wait on a rainy day.
Dear Gloomy Rainy Horribly Nasty Cold Arctic Windy Day,
Bring it on.
Love Jennifer
