so i went for UTown CF(i think? haha not so sure but i know it's a campus-wide one) tonight and had a great time studying God's Word there. being able to share thoughts, stories and experiences, it kind of opened my eyes to yet another world i have not seen before. to a world of different Christians but most of all, to just a huge world of God's children, all made in His image but all same and different simultaneously. it's a wonder, really. to be able to see different spirits, different opinions, different attitudes. it's humbling. to take it all in and think, wow, God, this is all You.
i also felt very encouraged by a friend who told me how thankful she is to have me here as a sister in Christ to guide her and just be a friend to her. i never really saw myself in a position where i would begin speaking into people's lives, but now i see where i am and i think, i can do this, with You. only with You. it's amazing, how God orchestrates events and brings people together. we adjust our focuses together and we look to God at the same time, all while encouraging one another never to stray away, never to give up, never to look at our problems and think: whoa, look at these problems i have. they're huge.
instead, we look to Jesus and know that our problems are tiny compared to His capabilities and abilities.
it's been a timely reminder, God.
to come back to You in a time of trying to catch up with studies, volunteering work and even getting to know people. everything's so new that even getting to know You has become somewhat a new experience. and that's great, because we get to see You in a brand new light. we get to mature, to grow in You, and see that nothing is ever more important than You.
thank You Lord, for tonight.
for all that i have.
for all that You have called me to do.
thank You, above all, for saving my life.
