So I'm just going to cut straight to the point. These last few weeks have been hectic, terrible heat... and terrible situations. I don't know about you but it seems like one thing just ends up building on top of another, until you've got this one massive stinky heap just sitting on your shoulders waiting for you to crumble under all the pressure. Kinda like your unwashed laundry sitting in the corner waiting to be washed, it just keeps growing until it takes over your entire room. Disgusting, I know.
Over the last few weeks, so many things have happened... exams are finallyyyyyy finished, new prefects are announced at school, old seniors leaving etc. And to top it all off it seems that Zim is getting better again! So there's hope!
However, through all of these amazing events happening, for me personally I've been feeling this heaviness in my chest, which keeps growing. I don't know maybe it's because I'm leaving Zim soon and leaving all the amazing people that I've met, or even just some situations that have kind of surprised and overwhelmed me all at the same time. All I know for sure is that it's been real hectic. But do you want to know something that i've come to realise over this whole period?
God is still good. ( I know right! Mind blown! )
So many times we can focus on the world's situation rather than God's creation. I've noticed that when i get worried, instead of giving it to God... i end up trying to figure it all out myself, i try to do it all on my own, kinda like seeing if God would be able to handle it. So the situation strangely becomes the god in your life, rather than God Himself, you get me?
Did you know that creation, just creation, sings the praises of God 24/7? 7 days a week, 52 weeks a year, and forevermore? Creation will never stop declaring the praises of God, no matter what the circumstance or problems it might be facing, drought, death, war. Creation will never ever stop.
And I love this one lyric from this song called 'So will I' by Hillsong, it sings ' If the stars were made to worship so will I, I can see your heart in everything you made, every burning star a signal of your grace. If creation sings your praises then so will I'.
I mean like... how beautiful is that?????
So instead of being overwhelmed by the circumstances, I should rather be overwhelmed by the control that God has over my situation, and join in with creation as we both sing His praises. I've come to and still am realising that all God wants is you, He just wants a willing heart, He doesn't care of your flaws, your imperfections, your mistakes...because in His eyes, he just sees you as perfect, and He wants you, all of you.
I hope this resonated with someone and I would love to hear your thoughts on this as well. So please feel free to drop me a message.But this is all I have for now :)
Love, Caity.
