But with the thought of exams coming up soon, and another 5 months in sixth form has been getting me down a bit, I'm just wanting to get a time travel machine and go to November now! I've been feeling more and more uptight about being in Sixth form and recently things got to me quite a lot with problems with a teacher and various meetings to sort it out, I've just wanted to drop out! But I know this isn't what God wants me to do, he wants me to keep going and stick it out, even if it is tough and just like one long waiting game, think this is a big lesson of patience in my life, and learning to wait. And whilst waiting, do something where I am now!
Yes, God is going to be using me in Watford in 10 months time, but he wants to use me NOW, in Nelson with my church, and in Accrington with my sixth form, I now feel the reason I am there is to try, in my last months of being around, and get God's profile higher in the sixth form, to love and show compassion to all my fellow Sixth Formers, and just to do what I can in God's name! And also of course to try and get some decent A level grades, and work as hard as I can giving God the Glory!
I know its going to be a tough 10 months waiting, and a tough 5 months in Sixth form, but God has set me on this task and journey so I am going to stick it out and do what he says to do, and to learn some patience along the way!
Here is a verse that I was given a few years ago that sums up what I think God is trying to say to me at the moment, just found the reference in my bible!
Hebrews 12v1 - 2
Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us.
