College students

Ok one more for today… I told you about going to Pinegrove Baptist Church last Sunday and enjoying the whole experience, but I didn’t tell you about the self discovery I made.

We traveled down and back in a carpool of trucks (we are from Texas) and cars. The truck I was ridding in was driven by Brian, the smartest guy in the whole world, in the middle was Floppy, an amazingly talented 21 year old, in the back was Alyssa, Jon, and Chris. The back three are the top of their class, have been invited to world class smart kid conventions and other impressive stuff.

As we traveled everyone was discussing all kinds of smart stuff and I realized that I was the dumbest person in the truck! This was very humbling. How can I lead this bright group of kids? Soon they will discover who and am and how much I don’t know. Oh well, God is not impressed with me, He is not concerned with my credentials or competencies, He is looking at my heart.

It is kind of cool to be the dumb kid. When I do something good then it is an event and when I mess up it is expected. I am so thankful that God chooses to show off His strength in my weakness! I pray that I can keep leading these super bright college kids to be the hope of the world!
