My days

My days...

They aren't spent doing much as of late. I don't have a job, I don't have a car, and I don't have my own place. Could be call for disater, but its not. I worked a few days this past week so I now have a little pocket change(very little!), I've been able to sleep in - or at least try to sleep in! I have spent time with my niece and nephew, I have seen some friends, and I'm currently staying with a great family from my church(they are amazing people!).

I had a great conversation today about being spiritually empty and going nowhere. I have some friends who are feeling that way, and in some ways I am as well. I know that, at least for me, Satan is taking hold and trying to twist things around in my little brain, making me become cynical and not happy. But I'm not going to allow him the pleasure anymore.
I just spent a great summer with amazing people, who taught me, and stretched me more than they will ever know. I also spent a lot of time in God's word - which sadly, hasn't lasted since I've been home. You always think its going to be so easy then WHAM! You get clobbered in the face and you're almost back to where you started. I am not down that low yet - and have no intentions of getting there. God will be triumphant in my life!

At the end of my summer in Ecuador I prayed(along with my team) that God would give me a(particular) mountain...He's definitely proving faithful on this one!!

Joshua 14:12 says "Now give me this hill country that the Lord promised me that day."

God has promised me great and mighty things. Now its my turn to give him a promise back - the promise of me.

Blessings.
