I started The Forgotten God tonight. Francis Chan is such a great writer. He uses the scripture as the foundation of his message instead of picking a message and then choosing scripture to support it. He says that the Holy Spirit is what sets Christians apart from others. It's how we show that we belong to Christ and what empowers us to glorify God. I'm blessed that I have felt the Spirit move within me. Well, I had to, I guess. I never would have allowed God to work within me if the Spirit hadn't knocked me down back in St. Pete. It's such a great feeling now that I'm not terrified of it. It took me quite a well to get over the initial terror of that indescribable feeling.
I'm going home to north Alabama this weekend. Oh man, I can't wait. I love my family and my home church and just being around people that know me and love me and I can be real around. It's funny how I plan my weekends (and would gladly plan my weeks if there were opportunities) around Bible study and church. Oh gee, y'all, this is still all so new to me. I feel like I should be in the kid's Sunday school class because I just still don't know how to live my life as a Christian. I still have so much to learn that I want to study and fellowship with other Christians as much as possible!
My mind is utterly exhausted from taking all this on by myself.
I can't keep my eyes open! Good night <3
