whoa...awesome. say it again - whoa.
sometimes at bible study, i'll just randomly shiver, which kind of makes me think that I'm feeling God moving and working around us. and i was shivering a whole lot yesterday. it was so totally awesome...un-stressable. but i've been revealed a lot of stuff, so i might as well display them in bullet-point format.
1. the set-up was perfect. that's just kind of cool. like, we didn't have school on friday. i didn't have much homework, so i barely did anything and fell into temptation, kind of mad at what i considered a wasted day. right on cue, there was God in friday night. i had recently lost the fire and was going to ask some people to get the fire if they didn't already have it and give it to me. and God ended up lighting (and knocking out) the entire youth group
2. it's kind of those really small things that you do and are the only one to recognize. they can be so small that no one else realizes them, and it can get a bit disappointing. but God sees everything. He sees absolutely every little action you take - nothing is ever in vain. i don't know...just something's that gonna help me when i'm supposed to read a book for european history and study for a chemistry test...He completely relates to what we're facing
3. it's kind of those paths that we don't know about next year - where we're going to school, when we're graduating, what classes we're taking. even then, we can rest assured that God is going to be there - we can even be sure that all of the problems we are going to face, God's already solved them. He's always the only real solution, and He's infinite....every little thing's gonna be all right.
4. it's a kind of dependence...i guess this last week was sort of living for myself again. it's just that everytime i try something like that, i'm consciously hurting myself and i can't possibly win. it's kind of like i need to rely on God...and that's all i need to do.
5. revolution. the question isn't "What can I do for everyone else?" it's "What can God do?"....when He's in me...what do i have to fear? seriously though. He's the only one that could matter. Save them all. the only one that's ever going to matter...deserves only the best, and the world has shunned him. we need to start getting busy, because death is all around us and taking people down.
6. God is good....just watching Him fill up and bring down everyone, still gives shivers. (it's even more awesome that we can't comprehend any of it.) there was a part when i was thinking where i was without God. and i realized that i was dead, in more ways than one. i was ultimately condemning myself to death and refused to think about it. He gave me structure, gave me meaning. and He could have killed me years ago
whoa...never lose the fire. we all have to stick together and express the fire when we have it. it's kind of disappointing that yesterday's time is over, but now it's a chance to show the world what we know and need, and we can't do it alone...whoa
:EDIT:
it was also perfect timing in the sense that we're leading worship on sunday. and that we were pajamas. College (af)fair(e) happening from 1-3 at holland hall middle school gym. everyone go
