What a busy week this is with BCM presidential things, family, class, projects, and our BCM back to school retreat this weekend. I'm so excited that I get to take part in so many great activities. I do have an honest confession, though, this past week I have been so busy and so intent on finishing my homework and accomplishing tasks, that some days I allow those things to replace my relationship with God. What a shame that is because when I am walking closely with God, he is there during those tasks to remind me that they are for him, thus making it not about me and all about him.
This glitch in my attitude struck me while ago. I was thinking about how blessed I am to get to lead other students in ministry and how blessed I am to be able to teach other students the things that God lays on my heart. Did you hear that? How blessed I (emphasis on I) am. This is when I realized that this thinking is what gets me into trouble. These tasks and the teaching and the leading are not about me at all. It is all about the one who created me to be this leader/teacher/task accomplisher. Blessed be the name of the Lord, not me.
What is it in your life that you need to give God control of and glory for?
