Well, it is almost noon and I've already had three appointments! Now am I ready for a nap! This last week has been super crazy...summary? Let's just say its involved angry parents, wrong buildings for class, crazy papers, naughty kids, and being locked out of the building my evening class was in, paper in hand, looking at the professor lecturing through the window, trying to decide whether I should knock on the window or wave....curious if I would get arrested for an attempted break in...and then trying to decide whether to laugh or burst into tears...so I did a little of both!

I'm so thankful that yesterday is over, and God has given me a new day! I was glad to have also made it to Bible Study today...last week I was too exhausted, but it was great to have that followship today.
We looked at John 7, and reflected on how Jesus' brothers didn't understand why he didn't go public with his miracles. Similar to Mary in chapter 2 perform the wedding miracle, even though His time hadn't come. His brothers didn't understand who he was or his real purpose.

Today I have been reflecting how true that is for me. I know what God can do. I see it first hand. Yet, I often try to force him (oh pitiful human that I am) to do what I think he should do. I want him to do his miraculous work were I want to see it done.
