Last day

Small group dinner




Today will be my last day home. Well, I am pretty sure I will be visiting and coming back, but today is my last day. That means that I have to pack and get all my clothes ready (which fits in one luggage bag; those are all my clothes). Then I have to unpack in huntsville, and then get ready to take four upper level classes. Before I go into my junior year of college I would love to retell of the events that happened this summer....

As soon as I finished the Spring semester I went to Guadalajara on a missions trip. Honestly i did not feel prepared at the time, but im glad i went. It was a time giving and serving and i even got a prophet to speak into my life. The Lord did great things.

Then 220 conference came around, and getting four of my girls to attend was my greatest joy. Jessica's sister got saved, and all of them were in awe of the Lord, and the Lord did great things.

Summer small group became pretty popular after 220. It really helped all the girls grow in fellowship with one another and being devoted to the Lord. Girls came up to me with things that really challenged my leadership, but not in a bad way, praise the Lord. It was good. It was great. I believe that this summer we have developed a hunger for more of God, and if we continue to pursue Him, I believe that we will be able to turn His face towards us. This past thursday we had our last summer small group, it was one of the most amazing expierence i had in a long time. We had dinner, then communion, washing of the feet, and then prayer...It was divine, it was great.

Pslams 126

1 When the LORD brought back the captives to [a] Zion,
we were like men who dreamed. [b]

2 Our mouths were filled with laughter,
our tongues with songs of joy.
Then it was said among the nations,
"The LORD has done great things for them."

3 The LORD has done great things for us,
and we are filled with joy.

4 Restore our fortunes, [c] O LORD,
like streams in the Negev.

5 Those who sow in tears
will reap with songs of joy.

6 He who goes out weeping,
carrying seed to sow,
will return with songs of joy,
carrying sheaves with him.



This whole past year I have sowed in tears....and now the captive ones have returned with joy, meaning I am filled with joy. All I can say is that the Lord has done great for us, and we (me and the small group girls) are filled with joy!! We are ready for more sowing, for more reaping. May the Lord bless this school year. In jesus name, amen.
