| So I thought I'd actually update and not do that stupid thing that I did yesterday, sorry Preeti. Life is purdy good, I am beginning to lack motivation for going to class and doing homework, which is not good. I am loving being a senior and having a light load of classes, but I just want to get out of this school! I had a giant break through in my life on Monday night/ Tuesday morning... life is much better, I just gotta figure out how to do what I need to do. I have amazing friends who are here encouraging me, giving me wisdom, and praying for me! I am certainly blessed in the friendship area. Not to mention my amazing boyfriend, who continues to encourage me and understand (well attempt) to understand me... :) I pray that I bless him and encourage him as much as he blesses me and encourages me!! I am a small group leader with Brittney this year and I'm soo excited because I absolutely love our small group. We are doing a book study on a book called Intimacy with the Almighty by Charles Swindoll. The small group consists of Sophmores on up to Seniors... people who are single and people who are married with kids... people who commute, live in linder, ohio, and volkman. It is so diverse but I love it!! God has already encouraged and shown me some amazing things that is in my life... I am excited to see what all He has instore for me...and my small group! "Yet when I am among mature Christians, I do speak with words of wisdom, but not the kind of wisdom that belongs to this world, and not the kind that appeals to the rulers of this world, who are being brought to nothing. No, the wisdom we speak of is the secret wisdom of God, which was hidden in former times, though he made it for our benefit before the world began. But the rulers of this world have not understood it; if they had, they would never have crucified our glorious Lord. That is what the Scriptures mean when they say, 'No eye has seen, no ear has hearxd, and no mind has imagined what God has prepared for those who love him.' But we know these things because God has revealed them to us by his Spirit, and hisSpirit searches out everything and shows us even God's deep secrets. No one can know what anyone else is really thinking except that person alone, and no one can know God's thoughts except God's own Spirit. And God has actually given us his Spirit so we can know the wonderful things God has freely given us. When we tell you this, we do no use words of human wisdom. We speak the words given to us by the Spirit, using the Spirit's words to explain spiritual truths. But people who aren't Christians can't understand these truths from God's Spirit. It all sounds foolish to them because only those who have the Spirit can understand what the Spirit means. We who have the Spirit understand these things, but others can't understand us at all. How could they? For, 'Who can know what the Lord is thinking? Who can give Him counsel?' But we can understand these things, for we have the mind of Christ."-- 1 Corinthians 2: 6-16 This is a passage we read in small groups last week... I really like that passage because it describes a small group or a close knit of Christians and what they should be a to T. Well that is about all I have to say right now... God is good... Life is good... P.S. Kev you are goot and grool!! |
