Well it has been a busy week but a very productive one. We have a our first game on Sunday. I am excited to start playing but cannot believe it is going to be my last year. It is so crazy to think about. I know this year is going to go by so quick. I was thinking the other day about where and what I will be doing this time next year and I realized I DONT KNOW! I really have no idea where I will be living, where I will be student teaching the possibilites are wide open. This has never happend to me, I have always know for the most part where i would be and what I would be doing (going to school and playing basketball somewhere). Like I have said before it is definatly bitter sweet. It is exciting and scary all at once. I do not even know how to think about my life not being planned around basketball.
Saying all that above though has really help me draw closer to God and realize that I have just been sitting back in my safety zone and just coasting through using basketball as my reasson for not getting up and doing more. Now dont get me wrong, I believe God blessed me with the ability to play basketball as my way of being a witness for him and his way of shinning through me but I am moving to the fourth quarter and need to pick up my game. It is amazing how if you truly seek God and really want to listen to him and follow his plan for your life how willing he is to show you and how clear things become if you just make him the center.
My blogs may seem repeative in some ways but I just cant quit talking about how God is working in my life and am so excited about each day of my life and excited for whatever is next because I know he has a plan for my life as long as I live my life for him. It is so comforting to have something that you know you can lean on and know you can trust with everything you have and he is going to be there every step of the way.
I am here on earth to live my life for Jesus Christ and at the end of everyday the thing that I have come to realize is when I look back on each day what am I looking at? What am I basing my day on how good or bad it was? It shouldnt be well I got a lot done or I had a good day in practice, or I got a lot of homework done but it should be What did I do for my Lord and Savior today, how did I live my life for him, did he shine through me today? God has a plan for me and all I want to do is stick to it.
"For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do." Ephesians 2:10
