I'm back from the WORD Retreat. WORD stands for Worship Obedience Relationship Discipleship. I had a good time out at the camp and I think I saw God working in the lives of a lot of people. The retreat gave me a lot to think about and taught me a lot about God and what it means to be a servant. I had fun and met a lot of Christians from different churches and I think I made some new friends. God did a lot for me on this retreat and if I could do it again I would!
I still don't know what I'm supposed to be doing with my life or what's in God's plan, but one of the things I surrendered this weekend is my future. Relax and enjoy the ride, I guess. I know God is working in my life and directing my steps because that's what He has promised to do and I want to be faithful to Him. I still get scared, afraid, depressed you could call it... Right after the retreat was over I got really scared and sad thinking about my future, even after all these amazing things God showed me... but in Christ my future is SECURE, because He is GOOD and all His thoughts toward me are good. So I'll follow Him and let Him give me LIFE.
Oh, that sounds just great, doesnt it? Come to Jesus and He will give you depression and sadness! Ooh, sigh.. when will I learn to write something about FAITH, about HOPE, about CHARACTER, about VICTORY? I saw a lot of that this weekend. A whole lot. A very large amount of FAITH, and LOVE, and CHARACTER and my life is different now and will continue to be different. THANK YOU JESUS!
