Snowed In... (not really)

Due to the weather, school was canceled today, so I have had time to do some reading and thinking. Yesterday, someone approached me and gave me some information that could affect my plans for the immediate next few years. As I sat there, I could only marvel at the mysterious ways that God works. I do not feel it is necessary to explain much more, only that it is an answer to prayer. This morning in my readings I came across an inspiring quote by Thomas A. Kempis. He wrote, "O God, You Who are the truth, make me one with You in love everlasting. I am often wearied by the many things I hear and read, but in you is all that I long for. Let the learned be still, let all creatures be silent before You; You alone speak to me." As I pondered those words I realized the deep, inner hunger of my heart to commune with God. Thinking back over the past few months I realized I have allowed myself to become so busy and involved with other things, that I have neglected to spend that heart time with God. Pray for me as I re-prioritize my schedule to give God the time he needs, and deserves. I realize that this is the only way I will be able to maintain and pursue the vision God has given me. This is the only way that I will feel complete and satisfied in what I am doing. This is the only way I will be able to completely trust God for His working in my life.
