Thankfulness in Uncertainty

"And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose." -Rom 8:28

This morning I was not called into a school to Substitute and actually found something productive to do; spend time with God. I started by reading the bible and then got an impulse to run. A few summers ago I realized that although I don't have an enjoyment of running itself that there are other benefits while I run. The main benefit being: When I run I can collect my thoughts and talk with God. So this morning I ran and had a good talk with God.

This morning in particular I found I was telling God a lot of my worries, uncertainty, and venting a bit. At one point God reminded me of his faithfulness since I have arrived to Rochester, the past year and a half. The rest of the run was joyous, still exhausting, but really full of thanks to God for all that he has done for me. A lot of the questions I had are still there, but I can tackle them knowing that in God's perfect time they'll be answered and that he walks/runs with me wherever I go. I have also been reminded of a talk that Keith Zehr had a camp, which I remember through the song "It ain't whatcha do it's the way that you do it." I need to continue to push forward and trust that by seeking God and seeking to glorify him he will continue to be faithful to provide and work through me!
