In James 4:13-15 it says:
"Come now, you who say, "Today or tomorrow we will go to such and such a city, and spend a year there and engage in business and make a profit."
Yet you do not know what your life will be like tomorrow. You are just a vapor that appears for a little while and then vanishes away.
Instead, you ought to say, "If the Lord wills, we will live and also do this or that.""
I have heard this and read this passage many times but I can't seem to actually learn it. Four weeks ago I wanted to end my time hear in Ozark, Arkansas. I was missing home and I didn't think I had any reason for being here. However God put it on my heart to stick it out, to hang in there. So I stayed. Two weeks ago I was grounds keeping and recruiting and planning for the Spring Discipleship Training School here at Youth With A Mission Ozarks. I thought I knew what God's plans were for me. However, God can change your life in and instant. Last week I found out that somebody paid for my first semester of the School of Biblical Studies here in YWAM. I have been hoping to be able to take this school in the future but God provided away for me to do it this year. The SBS (School of Biblical Studies) is a nine month course on learning the inductive study method of the Bible. Wow! God can change your life in a second if you let Him. Wow! God is simply amazing!
