Prayer and Worship...

I love how the prayer and worship to my Savior can just totally change things. It never ceases to amaze me how spending a couple hours reading my Bible and singing worship songs to Jesus changes me on the inside. I have no idea how it works or even why it works... All I know is it just does.

Wednesday I went to "Mainstreet" at TRBC before Campus Church and I spent some time reading my Bible and listening to music and journaling (sorry not blogging this time)... just writing down my thoughts from this year so far... things that have happened and all the ways that I have been pushed and challenged. All the things Jesus has done and the ways He has broken me only to rebuild me again better... It was a great time of just putting down everything in order... well I didn't really type it in order, but in the end it's in order :)

Then we had Campus Church.. which turned into almost 2 hours of solid worship time. *big sigh of relief* It was awesome. What was partially so great though was, they at one point had everyone sit down and put scripture on the screens for us to look up and The Boy and I shared my Bible while we read the various passages. Then when the music launched into the full worship section it was really neat to stand next to The Boy and worship... just be there together praising our Lord. It was awesome.

We went on a date and it was very causal and nice.. :) Good times, at one point we were talking about various things going on that are just proving to be challenging in our lives. When I went home afterwards, I spent a really long time journaling and praying over the various things. What was so great about all of it is, that the next day The Boy called me really excited to tell me how God had already been answering these prayers of his... and unbenounced to him, my prayers as well. I pointed out that sometimes things like that just prove to be little "I love you" notes from Jesus...

Prayer and worship have more of an affect then we realize I think.

Do You HATE Them?...

Ok, so here's the scenario...

A random person you've never met is standing in the road and is looking the direction traffic is going. You turn and see a truck barreling down on them so you say "uhm, excuse me a truck is going to hit and kill you..." They ignore you, and the truck gets closer. So you try again, "No, seriously you need to get out of the road.. NOW!" They smirk and laugh and say "you're crazy, there is no truck." All the while not bothering to hear the horn or turn around to see the truck coming right for them..... What do you do? "Ok, sorry to bother you, hope you have a good day.." Tackle them out of the way?.. What do you do?

I mean the reality is if you don't tackle them out of the way with force they will die. So, do you hate this random person you've never met enough to just walk away because they won't believe you? How much do you hate them to sentence them to death?

Here's the real scenario...

Every single random person you've ever met who does not know Jesus is going to Hell. How can I choose not to tell them, even if it means disagreeing? I mean do I hate them enough to say "ok, well you have a good day then.."

Last night I teared up when Dr. Caner showed this at Campus Church.... Penn is a vocal Atheist.

How much do I hate them?
