Prepare Yourself.

So, we had our first prayer meeting today, in Mr. Beigel's room, it was awesome! We sat in a big circle and just prayed. Mr. Biegel is awesome :) It was definately a lunch well-spent. We prayed for various things, but mostly for the light to shine through us at Sardis and light up someone else's darkness with the love of God, which is what my plans have been all along. I prayed for all of Sardis to just feel the love of God, His presence, and I just want them all to know, students and teachers, that there is a different way. That there is mercy and forgiveness and Someone is always there for them when they feel alone and sad. This is the end! Let me tell you! I know everyone at prayer group is just as excited as I am! We are going to go out into Sardis Secondary and just share the Good News, God's mercy, His grace. We aren't going to be afraid or nervous to talk to anyone when God's saying "Hey, go talk to them. Tell them about Jesus." That we won't doubt ourselves or say "You know, God, they're just going to shun us.." Because honestly, if they do, at least you were doing what God wanted you to do, He'll do the rest.

That one person you talk to, that's one life you could save.. One life you could introduce to Jesus, and pray for them and pray for them. Right now, I'm praying for all of Sardis' kids to just open their eyes and HEARTS to God and just know that He is always there, and He promises eternal happiness. Life may not be so awesome right now, but know that with God, things are going to start a heck of a lot better because God will help you through it all; all the pain, all the hurt, all the dissapointment, He makes up for that! With His love, I know I just feel alive!

Psalms 9:9 "The Lord also will be a refuge for the oppressed, A refuge in times of trouble."

And there's no reason no one else at Sardis shouldn't feel that too! Could you just fathom, being in a school with kid's who's hearts were just BURNING for Jesus? CAN YOU IMAGINE?

We could do so much!!!! I know that Sardis Prayer Group is a great thing and I know that every member of it is going to go out and just be the light, because that's what God wants us to do! I can't wait until the day that everyone has heard of Him, felt His love, His mercy, I'm pumped!! We can change the world, and I fully plan on doing just that! And it starts with a group like we have at Sardis. When He returns, I know He's going to tell everyone who stood up for Him and His Word "Good job, my good and faithful servant." This is going to be the epitome of epic success for Jesus Christ.

Heaven is a specially prepared Place for specially prepared people.
Prepare yourself.
