Japan isn't so far away
I'm getting pretty excited about Japan. =) I was just reading my friends LJ, and it got me kind of excited. He's in Japan for this quarter, and he's keeping a photo blog of stuff going on. It's so colorful. >)
So this last week was a little rough for me. I met my Japan team, and I was just feeling really insecure. It took me a little while to think and realize though that God is bigger then me and all of my issues. >) What an AWESOME comfort that is. =) I realize feelings of insecurity is sin. Why? I don't believe God when He tells me He has plans for me, when He tells me I am made COMPLETE. Insecurity tells me I'm self-absorbed and I'm not looking toward God's greatness, but my own ability. Am I incompetant, do I fall short of the world's standards? Heck ya! Is that who I REALLY AM? Is that what God constantly reminds me? Nope. I am PERFECT according to Him. .. hmmm... I still need to contemplate this idea more... >)
