Be still and know that he is God.

So here's my other story that I said I was going to talk about. I finally got to ride my board at school for the first time and that was to practice for IGGS. So I safely got to the plaza feeling all excited and happy that I got to ride my baby haha. I set my stuff down, bag & board, along the side of the stairs and then said wassup to everyone. We started our practice about 5 minutes later, so I was doing my thing and paying attention to that. A few minutes later while we were waiting for Ethan's instructions, I turn around and see that my board ISN'T THERE ANYMORE! For some reason I wasn't too shocked. I was just like what the heyoool, where's my board?! At first I thought, okay maybe someone's messing with me and just hid it, so waterbears righ. So I kept thinking about it & I was like okay, maybe they aren't messing with me because it's still not back. Two thoughts came to mind 1) someone stole it or 2) it roled into the bushes. I thought more on the someone stole it idea because it just seemed like it knowing that it disappeared in a cool minute. I did not want to interrupt the practice with my drama so in my head I tried to stay optimistic. I thought, okay if someone stole it, it's fine because that means I can buy a new one haha. Then I started praying, "Lord, whoever stole it may you just give them the heart to bring it back & realize what they did was wrong. & if they don't bring it back just bless them." So I guess I let it go & tried to accept the situation because I viewed it as a win-win situation if I do or don't get it back. If I do get it back yay! If not, still yay cause I get to buy a new one with hot pink wheels like I've always wanted. So I just let it go & let God take control. 30 minutes into practice I turn around and these two guys (they weren't the ones who stole it) on their boards were yelling and trying to ask us, "Whose board is this? (pointing at it)" I heard them so I ran to them and said "Oh man that's mine!" & one guy said, "Well be careful cause this is a bad place to put a board. I almost rode into it." [If you know bruin walk, it was all the way in the middle of the plaza like where people walk through] So I told him I was sorry & that I think someone tried to jack it but gave it back. So from there I felt truly blessed cause God is good. So now I'm happy not only because I got my board back but because I learned a lesson. Never underestimate God's power even if it has to do with simple things or if you feel you can handle it yourself. Be still and know that he is God.
