Discovery Weekend


I normally wouldn't post about a weekend but this past weekend God taught me some amazing things that I feel the need to share. The first thing even though it's something simple was to be flexible. I had to get to the church early so because my campus minister was my ride there. At dinner we had a gibberish menu that we had to order from, so we had no idea what we were getting for 1st, 2nd, or our 3rd course. On a missions trip you never know what each day is going to be like so you have to be flexible no matter what happens. This particular excercise we had eat all of our first course before we got the next one, so you had to figure out creative ways to get things done if no sourt of silverware was given. After dinner the campus ministers explained that everything we did this weekend was a test to get to know who we were and see where we fit in for a missions trip. Late Friday night I couldn't sleep well so I went into the sanctuary to talk to Jesus and one of the girls happened to be in there reading her Bible and we got talking. God has perfect timing and a plan for all of us and it is amazing to just sit back and reflect on yourself and God! This weekend went by in a blur but God was there the whole time. I learned some new ways that I can just sit and reflect on God, and how He continues to amaze me everyday. I could refer to verses when talking with people and I could go outside and take a walk and know that God is with me just by looking at his beautiful creations. The relationships created this weekend are relationships that God formed. I love Jesus soo much and It is absolutely amazing to just watch all the things that God can do just in a weekend. Just imagine what He can do in a summer!!!!!!
