So Much To Do! So Little Time To Do it....

I'm definitely still feel overwhelmed. There is just too much information for me to handle by myself. I am glad that there is starting to be an interest in local history. I am also glad that eyes are starting to be opened about all the possibilities, yet I still have this nagging feeling that things will start falling apart again. I've been in this present situation for so long now that I've forgotten how good it feels to have a stable job. I envy those who do.

I know, however, that if I had a stable job now that I wouldn't be at all concerned about what is happening around me. I wouldn't care less about local history...maybe...or I wouldn't be as active as I am now. There is just so much to do. I do feel nervous.

We need a venue. We need to generate enough interest to justify the many costs involved with maintaining a building. There is so little time to do it all...and there are added pressures being placed on my shoulders. I don't like this feeling. Yet it is when I feel this way that I turn to the Lord the most. I start by reminding myself that he is in control.

He knows my situation and my needs. He understands the time pressures and the feeling of being overwhelmed. I need only to hand my cares and concerns to him, knowing that he has my best interest at heart. God's timing is perfect. I realize that when I consider the rapid growth of the society and the many projects that are now "blooming" under his guidance. Oh, Lord...let me not forget that you have everything in your hands and control belongs to you. Too many times I let myself get overwhelmed and worried about my circumstances not realizing that everything is going accordingly to his plan...not mine.

The Lord will provide the funds needed, the venue needed and the support needed for the museum. I just have to continue to press on, gathering the information and making the needed contacts. I can't wallow in despair when something appears to go wrong. I have to give it to him....and watch what happens.
