I used to be afraid about the future. That nothing would be as good as InterVarsity in college. But now I see that as I follow the LORD, he's not going to lead me to places where there is less of Him. Now I see that He will take me to places where I grow more deeply in my faith. IT'S ONLY GOING TO GET BETTER!
Okay Okay
God challenged me to make a list of everything I want from Him. I am opening wide my mouth and he is going to fill it to overflowing, I know it.
Here's my list:
1. Energy for this weekend on movie sets.
2. Humility
3. More faith when I pray
4. 35 PA hours
5. Gift of Healing
6. Gift of Interpretation of Tongues
7. A job this summer I can enjoy and make a lot of money at.
8. Katie to come to faith.
9. Mauai's transformation, my interactions with him to be full of God's glory
10. Such intimacy with God that not having a boyfriend doesn't bother me.
People who don't go to prayer and worship nights are missing out! God is EVERYTHING! Nothing else is as good as you, LORD. You are the precious one. It's all about you. You heal us and sit us down on green grass by still waters. You give us husbands and boyfriends and friends and money. But YOU are the real treasure. Help me to realize this even more.
God, there is SUCH JOY in your house. Give me joy this weekend on set.
At prayer and worship night God grew out Katie J's left leg so it is now even with the right leg. Also, when Erica and I prayed for Katie's back, she felt her back get super hot. She almost asked me to take my hand off it was burning so much. But my hand was cold. HOLY SPIRIT!!! Moving moving moving. I love it when the Holy Spirit moves. And it wasn't by my power. I wasn't even feeling that confident. I was trying to find the right words to say, but God did His work despite my lack of everything.
I felt such peace and joy today. It was so great.
Also, Alex gave me words of encouragement. That he loves my positivity and the initiative I took with prayer. I love Alex. I love my community. We are enjoying each others' company more deeply in Christ. I want to invite more people into it.
Lord, give me love for others. Sometimes I have a hard time loving those with weaker faith or those who don't pray well. Lord, fill me with your love for them. Because that was me at one time and you loved me just as much then as you do now. Thank you for your deep, penetrating love. I can't believe what grace you have for me. Praise you, God.
Now I see so clearly.
