This is where I Want Him to Be.
All of Us Americans gathered for a warm and wonderful Thnakgiving!
What a fantastic week!? Hear are some of my lecture topics…
We can only Show God to the extent that we Know Him
Isa 58; 6-11… The Lords fasting is to break the bondage of the needy. Our fasting should be for others benefit.
We can choose to Live by the truth that comes from God, or by the lies of the enemy
Romans 8; 14… He loved us so much that He sent His son to the cross so we could become is adopted children
If every Christian family adopted one child, there would no longer be orphans
Are words are powerful. God spoke the earth into creation. We have to be careful what things we speak over ourselves and others.
Salvation is free, following Him will cost you everything, but the blessings from obedience are greater than the cost.
When we are serving the Lord, wherever he has called us, he doesn’t just give us Grace to endure, but Grace to ENJOY
Who comes first….Your family or Jesus?
He gave His best for us, how much more should we offer to him
This is just a summary of the hard and beautiful truths I heard. I want to be desperate for God. A heart that is truly seeking finds His answers. I think I’m almost afraid to find out what he has for my life. I’m scared of the sacrifices I have to make, but at the same time I’m willing to go. My brain is really scrambled; it’s the last week of lecture, I don’t know what to expect on outreach, I’m going to miss the other half of my class, some people on my team still don’t have money to go to Guadeloupe, and my confidence has really dropped. I need to take confidence in Him and not myself. I can sense the heavy attitude over my campus. I was just getting used to the classroom YWAM lifestyle and now I’m being thrown into “outreach” time. I’m looking forward, but I’m easily distracted by emotions.
God is good and his purpose is too. I know I’m going to Guadeloupe to be changed; I just need to be ready to lay down my rights and selfishness. As much as I hate confrontation God is teaching me to confront people and tell them truly how I feel. I think that’s one of my weakest points. I do feel more upfront It’s just really hard. I would rather try and forget about something than discuss the matter. I think my apathy is why my confidence is so low right now. I’m letting myself become stagnant. I need to get moving, start recognizing and battling. I love the idea that when we take part in worship its spiritual Warfare.
As much as I have going on mentally, it truly ha been a good week. Realizing my issues is the first step in destroying them. Please pray for Boldness and patients I’m really lacking both. Pray that His beautiful truth will remain in my mind.
Matthew 10; 37-39
