wow....

So, this past weekend I had the opportunity to lead a middle school girls group for our church's D-Now weekend. It was amazing. God totally recieves all of the glory for everything that happened. One of the best things to happen was on Saturday night after the big city-wide rally (that all of the churches in town who were participating in D-Now were at). God just led me to tell the girls not to speak on the way home and to be in prayer instead. When we arrived to our host home we gathered in the living room and continued in silence and prayer. The whole way home Satan was on the move, but so was the all consuming God. I kept praying that God would just show His glory and that many girls would be healed from sins that night (talking about confessions of sins and if any girls weren't 'saved') and the more I kept praying the more Satan attacked. It was so crazy, but so amazing at the same time. At the house, God just led us girls to pray for one another and then I explained to the girls about the process of confession of sins as God directed me to. OH MY! God totally broke down the girls, and ME to confess things that were going on and let me tell you, there was MUCH HEALING that night. God totally cleaned house!!! I got to see first hand some amazing things that God wanted to do in the lives of these girls and because of His grace, He let me be a part of it.
In chapel today, I finally understood a concept that had really been confusing to me. It was about faith ( a topic that God continually explains to me and I'm still learning about). If I understand this correctly, Christianity is not about how MUCH faith we have, but rather the OBJECT of our faith ('faith of a mustard seed' and such).
Well, Saturday night, I definantly put my faith in God and he TOTALLY showed jus a sliver of a sliver of a sliver of some of His incredible glory!!!! The more I see of his glory, the more I want to see and to experience. It's like for the first time in my life I am actually YEARNING for God...it's a great feeling.
I hope this all makes sense and thank you for letting me share in my joy.
Have a great day!
