Hello Is Anybody In There

That is what I feel like God has been saying to me. It is stupid how we just refuse to listen to God. He is talking and I am just not listening. I can say that I am but really I am just not listening. I have been so frustrated lately at how I feel that I am not able to serve in the way that I feel I have been called. I know that God has called me to be a youth minister. I have felt and seen the evidence of that calling for almost five years. I was a youth minister for three years at my parents church and then felt God calling me else where to be in more of the background of a youth ministry to help grow myself in God's word and develop some more leadership skills. Anyway recently I have really felt the "itch" to be in more of a minister role. Tonight through reading God's word (I finally listened) I realized that God has given me that oppurtunity through being middle school director, but more importantly I have been ignoring the oppurtunities to minister to people that I come in contact with everyday. There have been so many chances for me to help people spiritually and emotionally. I have just been blind to all of it looking for the "big" things that I can do. I realized I need to look for every oppurtunity to be able to fullfill God's calling in my life.
It seems that I have lately had all these expectations about certain situations in my life, and none of them have panned out the way I wanted them too. It can be frustrating when this happens. I just feel that maybe someone reading this may need to hear this. I want to share with you some advice that a really great friend offered me. "Take a step back. breathe. rest. there is more. there is something that is better than you would ever think........don't worry about what you think you missed or wonder what you did miss, go forward. live today." I have just been wanting things and not listening to God and by doing so have set myself up for some dissappointment, but I have learned to just know that God's timing is right and that he is in control and that I just need to follow his lead and trust in him.
