So a quick entry before I start my day. I don't really remember what I did in the past week but mostly I want to talk about the weekend. First off, classes are going well and life is spiffy. I don't have a job yet but I'm not giving up. I had a PALS meeting last night and I decided to join the fundraising committee. The whole group is taking their pals to Disney on Ice in a couple of weeks. I'm excited for that!
I had such a great weekend. On Saturday night Liz, Eric, Jenny, Brian and I went to Gospel Explosion. We thought it was basically going to be a few gospel choirs giving a concert. We were way off!! It was the most fun praise ever! There were choirs from EMU, WMU and GVSU. People were standing up and clapping and dancing up and down the aisles. It was great! Yay for God! Then we all headed back here and hung out. Jenny and Brian wanted to "turn in early" so Eric hung out with us. We ordered a pizza and watched a movie and Saturday Night Live. We all had a lot of fun. On Sunday I went to church with Liz and her friend Zack. Yay for being uplifted some more! There was always something eating at me in my faith. I figured out that it was that I had this horrible fear that I wasn't going to heaven. So I gave it up to the Lord and I've started living for Him and not for myself. Weeee! Then, we had Bible study and the Gathering that night. So much fun!! They were recording a live album so they went through every song twice. We got to sing "In Christ Alone" twice!! Along with some other awesome songs. I can't wait for that CD to come out...it's going to be great!! We watched this little video clip of God's works in Guatemala. The people in this village have completely turned it around. They used to have 4 jails and they still had to transport prisoners to other jails. They had 36 bars. Now, all of the jails are closed and there are only 4 bars. Since people have stopped drinking and violence is down, people are being miraculously healed, crops have been growing in huge amounts and sizes, and it's even been reported that people have risen from the dead!! It's all possible through God people!! After the clip the pastor said, "This is happening in other places all over the world. But why isn't it happening in this city or even this country? etc, etc. God will come where He is wanted." I want God here healing our sick and giving us prosperous lives!! After the pastor spoke we prayed and I got the message that I am supposed to be doing the healing. I've heard my purpose!! God is calling me to heal His people!! Wheeeeeeeeew!!
Aight ya'll I'm out!
