hahaha,
wow right now I can't help but laugh, cuz so much has happened... I couldn't possibly say everything...
and I have to still do homework 4 tomorrow.
but i really have to say some stuff...
My life has been so unbelievably blessed.
I guess I could make another list of amazing things that have happened, without really explaining any of them.
I have been amazingly blessed in my classes at school, completely
apart from my own skill (and in some cases even my own devotion.)
My roomates are amazing
My landlord is amazing
My job is amazing
My car does still endure!
I had this awesome opportunity to witness 2 this girl in my Psych class.
I met this awesome girl named So, who I was able to talk to about God for a long time.
I came back into contact with an amazing woman of God, got to
know another amazing woman of God, and we have started a group on
campus composed of different christian groups that come together as one
church and pray for the campus.
I have been surrounded by Christians to keep me encouraged, and accountable...
Some of my close friends are turning into amazing Christians, inspiring and teaching me things I would have never imagined.
I have had the opportunity to become apart of a ministry on campus, with many people who's hearts are on fire for God.
My house and room are amazing
My finances have been taken care of in amazing ways. (like
this 30$ parking ticket I wasn't sure where the money would come from,
and then 50$ just fell on me out of nowhere.)
Upon finally reaching the conviction that I want to go to
china, I just got surrounded by people coming from or going to China..
the count was 4, and as of tonight, now 5.
Some of the most inspiring Christians I know have asked me to
pray for them, and are praying for me. (an amazing crazy answer to
prayer.)
I just realized that I need some new adjectives, because i've used
"awesome" and "crazy" roughly 1.32 billion times already
I have been able to talk to and encourage many other brothers and sisters of the faith.
And it usually happens completely by the grace and timing of God.
I'm totally stoked because I have faced additional persecution
for my zeal. (both spiritual oppression, and from actual
people.)(though I start to understand why Paul's heart would go out so
strongly for the people who oppressed him.)
God has revealed some really amazing and crazy cool stuff in
his Word recently. As well as in a few books. And through inspiring
brothers and sisters of the faith. And he has kept me from harm, and he
has worked into me and through me Love, Joy, Peace, Patience, Kindness,
Goodness, Faithfulness, Endurance, and Self Control.
I am just so greatful to God for all he has done. I am in
awe, trying to fathom all God has worked in my life. I pray I would not
forget these amazing blessings when difficulties spring up. I fear so
strongly my heart will be like that of Israel, who after being
delivered from the Egyptians through an ocean with walls of water on
either side, turned their face from their God. I pray it would never
be.
Oh God, you are my God, I am one of your people, and you dwell within
me.
