So here I am, in the library hoping to get some studying done. The prospect of being productive and/or accomplished is rapidly dwindling, especially if you're equipped with wireless internet and a personal laptop. Alright, so if I'm going to compromise my much needed time for test-preparation, I better write about something meaningful.
My college group has a retreat this weekend. I'm stoked to the max. Although I have expectations, I realize God has an incredible method that's perfectly orchestrated. Above and beyond, all the more worthwhile. A style unlike any other. Excitement is but an understatement once His promises are fully acknowledged and encountering God's presence is one of them (James 4:8, Matt. 18:20). I think what overjoys me most is the tremendous growth my life has endured since the last retreat. Complete surrender and a recommitment to the Savior. Sure I may have eventually rededicated my heart, but it was for then and there. That moment in time was specifically delegated and driven by purpose. His divine plan often overwhelms me with awe. Looking at everything retrospectively, it's almost hard to believe that a single soul could go through such transformation. I'm mega humbled. Truly I am. I know for a fact that certain people wouldn't be in my life, while others would remain. Talk about change internally and externally.
Here's a bit of perspective for you. Try to envision your life without God. We've all managed to emerge as beautiful creatures from the ashes, haven't we?
Anyhow, this entry is not geared for seeming boisterous by all means. I just wanted to merely share the significance behind this upcoming retreat. It's so much more than simply getting away for the weekend.
Expect to see an update, it might be a doozie.
