You are faithful to a thousand generations

its been so long since i updated. the retreat was amazing because God is so faithful, i cant even put into words how wonderful He is or describe the work He did in us that week. speechless. but now school has started, a week earlier than last year i might add and well im not too happy in the sense that i dont like taking classes cuz they bore me, but its the spiritual battle that im coming into that makes it all worth it. its like i sersiously have to walk by faith when i go to that school, im constantly under attack by the enemy, im surrounded by death, and in the midst of it i really cant see where im going. im just letting the Lord lead, walking blindly by faith, which is what He desires. i think He cant stand it when we plan, cuz then we arent as open to hearing Him speak. and sometimes we completely disregard His plan and just follow our own. so no more planning for me, just gonna walk by faith. Praise the Lord for His faithfullness. He knows me so well, far better than i know me. its like He knows when i am going to need Him so He totally speaks to my heart, fills me with power, and sends me out in love with Him. i completely needed Him today and i honestly dont know how i would have survived if i hadnt had an awesome devotion this morning, so what does God do? sets my heart on fire... man i love Him, He's amazing.

i think we need to be grateful for what we have, i realize i complain a lot, as does my generation and we have so much! its like we are so blessed and what do we do complain about everything... so im gonna stop complaining and just turn and thank the Lord for He has given me more than i need and definatly more than i deserve. so thank God today for what you have and see how truly lucky you are compared to so many. in acts it says that apostles were stoned to death and burned in hot oil. this last week two christians were shot and murdered when they went camping, police found them dead in their tent. so think about what other saints have suffered for their faith, how blessed are we? how easy is our life? and pray that one day we would have the strength and faith to suffer for Christ like that.
