I had a crazy experience today. Well I went and worked for these people that I basically dedicate my saturday to to plant stuff for them and do a bunch of yard work. Well today I was talking to the lady and I was telling her about the Invisible Children. Then I told her I was going to spend next saturday and sunday sleeping in N.O. in dedication to them. She told me something and it got to me so much. The most she could say was " Why would you do that it's not like those kids in Africa care if you do that." at that point I had to say SATAN GET BEHIND ME. But it just broke my heart to hear her say that. I thought about it and God told me "you know maybe kids in Africa don't know that you're doing this, maybe they could care less even if they did know but since when has anything ever been about getting recognition, since when have you gone to serve just to get noticed, That's not whats serving is about. Doing this 24 hours without any materialistic things and a pack of Crackers and one bottle of water, it may not help anyone in Africa it may not end the War but Tyler I promise it is going to make an impact you'll never forget." I cant wait to see whats in store for that but yeah.
It was so crazy that God told me that because it reminded me about last sundays message about why is life not fair. I thought about The Invisible Children, VA Tech Shooting, NASA shooting, and I just prayed God why would you let those things happen. Nobody deserves that. I just rememebered God is in control God has a purpose and then just like today Dino said "the answer to Whats the purpose for life is to hard for any human to understand" It's the same way We don't understand why GOd does thing but we have to trust him.
Which also reminds me of this sign I saw today It said trust i ssyaing God can Faith is saying God will. It made me think about all sorts of things. but i thought that was a nifty little saying so yeah. Well thats all for today so yeah LATA
Love,
T-BARRY
