It's been awesome for me to just sit back and watch how the Lord is growing me. Well, I guess it's not just sitting back. The past few weeks have been so hectic, and I've felt so pulled in so many different directions all at once! But already I am able to look back and see how the Lord has grown me, and changed me! Like last night in clubs, for instance. I was giving the application to our story on obedience. Now, giving the applications is not my strong point and definitely not my favorite. And the first few times I did it, I was so scared and relied so much on my scripted notes, etc etc. But now...it's amazing, that as I've become more familiar with what I'm saying, how the Lord is able to give me insight right on the spot, and to just allow the words to just flow from my mouth with a passion and conviction that can only come from the Lord.
Everything is going so well! The Lord has opened my eyes to so many of my faults and my wrong attitudes, that made my outlook on the things going on around me to be absolutely wrong. I've realized how prideful I am, and so self-centered. The Lord is faithful, tho! I've become so challenged by the verses in 1 Peter that say "but as He who has called you is holy, so you also be holy in all your conduct. For it is written, 'You shall be holy, as I am holy." Wow, to walk in holiness! What a challenge. Not only to just do it..but to actualy define what holiness is! It's been an interesting journey for me.
I love my team. Each and every one of them. They all challenge me in so many different ways. Like iron sharpening iron.
