I have been so encouraged by everyone who has contacted me to tell me you are praying for me. And it goes beyond that, you guys are checking on me just about everyday. I honestly cannot tell you how much this means to me!! It is awesome totally awesome to see that people that I am just getting to know are almost the most concerned for me haha. It's so great how God uses people that you least expect! It's really cool. Anyway, so I figured I should just bring everyone up to speed as to how I am doing even though it's only been a few days. I will be honest and say that I am not completely great, but I have to say that tonight was a great turning point for me, I think. I will back up to yesterday...I did something that I've never done before. I went and saw a movie by myself. To those who may not know me very well...I hate doing anything by myself. But I have been feeling like God is wanting me to use this time to be alone, so why not keep doing the things I want to do?? And yesterday, I wanted to see a movie, so I went! It was a little weird at first, but after the movie started, it was all good. So today I did not work, once again, but I ended up not being home all day and encountered 3 different people to hang out with for different periods of time. It was really wonderful! And all of them, unplanned!
So then tonight I decided to go to campus church. I haven't been in a while, so I thought why not? I am so glad I went!!! My friend Tiff and I decided we would just go for the worship time. God decided to be funny...all we did was worship! There was no sermon, all totally rocking out to God through music. This is how I connect with God most!! And tonight we sang "Jesus' Blood". Wow. It hit me tonight in such a powerful way. And all night, each time anyone spoke, they talked of people hurting and just leaving things at the altar. God was totally speaking directly to me though them. So I hope that I left things at that altar tonight. Please keep praying for me, but I was glad to see glimpses of hope and joy through the cracks tonight. God is Good!
Another great song we sang tonight, these are the lyrics sticking with me still..
"All of my life
In every season
You are still God
I have a reason to sing, I have a reason to worship"
