Two months ago i got to hawaii.
Two months from now i will just have celebrated my birthday in South America
wow.
I feel like the older i get the faster time goes by!
i will be 40 before i know it.
This week in lecture we talked about the nature vs the character of God.
reverence vs intimacy
He is Big
He is Good
It was a good yet rattling week for most students because it makes us question and go deep into our heart issues.
Lets just say i came out of this week with more questions then answers, and maybe that is how it should be most times.
I am looking forward to next week we have our one and only female speaker Faith Dutton talking on Relationships.
Oh man.
Always interesting!!
Monday i experienced something new....something called Zumba class. Basically an exercise class where you dance the entire time. Mainly salsa and latin american dancing, but there is some other cultural stuff thrown in there. So yes that is my new experience of the week. After an hour and a half of dancing i can safely say that my dance skills have improved....which isn't saying much with my skills.
anyways.
Wednesday was the halloween party at the community outreach that i am apart of Meet 'n' Eat. We went in costume (me as an 80s prom queen) and ate with the kids and danced and gave out food and toys. It was so so much fun!
Friday we saw over $15,000 come in in just over an hour.
wow GO GOD!
friday was the deadline for the first amount of money for the outreaches we are going on in just over a month and there was still a need for some. It was amazing seeing God come through. For me it was really testing my faith and trust in Him.
Was i willing to give over and above what i really have in order to trully trust in God? Well lets just say that i am more joyful after giving, and if i think about it i have so so much. why not give.
Saturday....yesterday was a really fun day!! There is a local church that puts on this huge halloween event for the community. They set up a life-sized candyland and over 6000 people come through.
Everything is free!!
there is a maze that they go through and collect candy along the way, games they play for candy, inflatable jumping things, climbing wall, and everyones favourite....hot dogs! Crazy how they can do this every year and continue to make it free! Our school got the priviledge of helping out running games and handing out candy and just hanging out with the kids showing Christs love. This is my third time doing it and it never grows old.
So yes that was my week.
I'm so full of joy and excitement for the future.
Please keep me in your prayers over these next few weeks as i am preparing for my trip to Colombia.
Peace, Wisdom, Trust.
I am my beloveds and He is mine!
