ihaveweirdpants: i mean, i had a horrible cross country meet. downright horrible. i was so mad at myself, i mean really mad. and still in the midst of it, i could see that God hadn't abandoned me. i asked myself where God was and i looked around and saw Him all around me. i just didn't know it at the time
lock-in was so awesome. details soon.
:EDIT:
i don't know...maybe it was just one of those things that you had to be at to understand. the lock-in was so awesome...so unbelievably awesome. it was that one relief from everything, a momentary complete freedom from all of those responsibilities you always seem compelled to face. i was even saying that if i managed to survive the week, i would be so refreshed with the lock-in coming up...and, luckily, i survived. and in the fiery storms of stress and criticism and pressure, i finally found comfort in the only One that couldn't let me down. it was just like comfort, but it was like times ten or something...it was just plain so awesome. what characterizes TCCC lock-ins is prayer...plainly, that's what it is. and when we're blessed to be in His presence, amazing things happen. and my prayers were answered...just for a moment, everything was right. absolutely everything. [in the midst of the storm.] just to be with You...i should give it all. just to be with You...i should live my life for You. in everything i do, let it be for You instead of me. sometimes when you get caught in your everyday turmoil, you just sorta forget why you're living. and especially on those chaotic days, you find yourself no longer thinking. which is a bad thing. i finally realized the next time i'm stressed out to a max, i'm supposed to forget about everything and think about the only thing that ever matters: my relationship with God. everything's gonna work out in the end... no matter what. all the junk we go through. as long as we stick by it, it's worth it in the end. God just plain rocks. just to be with Him, i aspire to be willing to do anything. anything at all... if it's in His will, let it happen.
You said Your glory will fill the earth, Like water the sea.
You said, "Lift up your eyes; the harvest is here, the kingdom is near."
Yous aid, "Ask and I'll give the nations to you."
O Lord, that's the cry of my heart.
Distant shores and the islands will see Your light as it rises on us.
yes, i am a Christian. tell your friends.
