I Don't Even Know What Day This Would Be. :/

This past Sunday, the 24th, was pretty awesome for many reasons. One, it's always nice to chill and fellowship with friends. Another reason, God is awesome! :) Every Sunday night there is InterVarsity leadership meetings. Usually starting at 6pm with a donated delicious meal, then moving into talking about leadership skills, and ending the night with Bible study prep/TNF prep and other "ness". This past Sunday night looked a little different. We started at 7 and ended a little after 8, instead of 9:30. What was planned was to prep for what we had to, whether that be Bible study or TNF. It was good and all, but it was after we were done doing what we usually do that recharged me AND my fellow brothers and sisters there!
We ended up sharing our hearts on the regular meetings, and just in general our hearts on how InterVarsity is supposed to be student lead, but as of right now, isn't. The passion started to rise. I shared how I was excited to finally see a glow in everyones eyes and how this was the first night out of the entire year that I had seen this! I was so excited and energized that I started to shake. :) haha. As we continued to talk, Michelle asked the important question; "What's next?" And that was definitely the right question to ask. It didn't really get answered right then and there, BUT I believe it will not be forgoten! To end the night we ended in prayer, holding hands as a united body of Christ.

Today was...um...ok. Had breakfast with Ali(which was good!), went to class, took a nap, ate lunch, went to class, went to prayer(which was also good), was bored, read some of Captivating(which was good :) ), saw Bea!, was bored again so continued reading, and then the time came for small group. I was getting a hold of people to see if they were going to come and respons? No. I do admit/confess that I didn't do my job on informing one of the girls of when it was, so my asking was really last minute, but once again I was discouraged. I felt the discouraging thoughts and lies flow into my head, and I didn't try and stop it. I felt tired of fighting the battle. I knew I did not, whatsoever, have the strength to fight against the lies Satan was piling in my head, but God did, and did. I told Gabi and the Holy Spirit totally spoke through her saying: "You are a warrior remember? Warriors don't win unless they fight w/ all their heart!" I began to cry, which was much needed. She then quoted a song we have claimed our theme song for the year, We Win by David Crowder. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HS9TZxvbi9M This song also reminded me that we have already one this battle that we are fighting! We already know the outcome, we win! Satan has no hold on us, because he has already lost! :) HA! Therefore, I will press on! Jesus lead on!
