story time

So I cannot even describe how good God is.  I have three short stories I want to share with you.

First one:  At THOP we have been praying for three specific people that God laid on our hearts.  One of mine is one of my best friends.  She has been wanting more and more of God and I have been praying that God would give it to her as well as for her to put God first.  Well the last couple of weeks have been amazing!  She has been growing more with the Lord and wanting to talk about him more often.  He is definitely growing in her life.

Second one:  Last Thursday I went to see Derek Webb play at the Pour Cafe.  I ran into a girl I have known since my freshman year of college.  She attends First Baptist.  So we got to talking and catching up.  She was telling me about how she worked at this camp this past summer and how God humbled her during her loneliness.  Then she starts to talking about Ezekiel and then I freak out because I am reading that on my own right now!  We were just talking about how obedient he was for the Lord.  We want that soo bad!  But that night was so encouraging to both of us because God really wanted us bump into each other so that we could fellowship with each other and lift both of us up.

Third one:  This past weekend my church went up to Lookout Mountain Camp for Boys in Mentone,AL.  We go every year for the middle schoolers.  It’s an amazing trip everytime we go as well.  Anyways, this year was pretty amazing.  God definitely broke through people and moved through them.  It was the best Mentone yet.  Also there were two little sixth grade boys who somehow got my anointing oil and went around anointing people and praying for them.  I didn’t know this until the next day but I was so excited to hear that because God is moving in these kids lives.  I was in the back of the room praying for these kids and adults to get an encounter with him.  It definitely happened.  I cannot express how the spirit of joy came over that even when we were singing this slow song about being still and knowing God is always there I just laughed and giggled to myself because it’s true and being reminded makes it even better.

God has done so much this past week and I am so thankful to see it and be a part of it!
