Waiting.........

You know we get told to wait for so much in life. After speaking with one of my role models via myspace today i just realized how ready i am to be used in a larger context. I'm tired of being in the midst of my life process in order to get to the future of where i want to be. I wish people including myself could just realize that God has a plan for their life now. Now matter where, how old, what color, or personality that person is they are a tool in God's giant toolbox for the brokeness of this world. Why when you get older do you lose the zest for life that you had when you were young? Why do you feel like your life is over and you are just waiting on death to come to your door? Man if adults could wake up and pour themselves into those young people that they criticize all the time about not being mature or if the young people would quit excusing their behavior by saying that im just a kid. The crazy thing about a tool box is that all of the tools are different. Yeah some may look similar but they won't fit into the same spaces or get the job done as effectively as another tool. Yet while some tools may be used more than others what if you didn't have the one tool that you needed to get the job done that would suck huh? Well God desires to use each of us in a unique way and people always just disqualify themselves for the job with milliions of excuses not realizing that they are just the tool and the real work has to be done by the workman using the tool. I don't know maybe this is a farfetched metaphor but i just wish i could jump forward like 5 years and be finished with school, married to kristen with twins, and teaching and leading people but i know that im not ready and im frustrated and i want to get started learning and growing. Man waiting stinks especially when you have so much to do.
