Clarity of mind

Have you ever been confused about something and just did not know what the answer was or how to get unconfused? Well, that is where I am. But I think that we need to keep in mind that God is not the author of confusion... the devil is and therefore if we are confused, we need only to tell the devil to shut up and leave us alone.

Yes, this could be difficult, especially if we have been listening to the confusing lies for a while... but it is necessary. God does not want us confused about anything. He does not want us to sit here and wonder which direction we should go. He wants us to be of clear and sound mind so that we can best honor Him in all that we do. It is important to seek God in times of confusion so that we can shut the devil's lies out and ensure that we are able to clearly think and help others see that the devil is who wants them to stay confused.

When we have a big decision to make it is important that we do not let ourselves get confused. If we spend so much time debating back and forth then we will allow the devil to have a place in our lives and cause us so much confusion that we can drive ourselves crazy. Making decision are easy when we seek God and His guidance...allowing for Him to show us His plans for our lives.

"I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord, plans not to harm you but to give you hope and future." Jeremiah 29:11

Blah...Blah...

Well - this week I started my final 14 weeks of school until I can officially graduate with my Masters of Divinity degree with a focus in Chaplaincy. I am so excited that this journey I have been on is close to coming to completion. It has been a long 5 1/2 years to work towards completing my Masters degree...and thankfully I have already received two degrees along my way to keep me motivated. 

Even though I am having a lot of trouble focusing on my homework right now that I have been given to complete, I know that I need to complete it and to the best of my ability. 

So as the next few weeks of school go by I thank everyone for their prayers and for their support in helping me stay motivated in order to arrive at the finish line. I know that God has given me the ability to complete this assignment for Him to continue to do His work. So for this reason, I know that I will have the strength to get through these next weeks in order to be awarded my MDiv and find a position in order to continue to do God's work on a higher level.

Thanks for your prayers...
