One.

Decision.December 1st. The deadline. The day for folks to decide whether they are going to China, SBP, Common Ground, School, Staying at Home, Taking on internships. The prayer and begging for wisdom and discernment during this time has been exponential. I think today marks a new journey for me and almost all of my close friends. I'm excited to see what it holds.

Gospel.We have our last CO meeting of the semester tonight too. Wrapping up our serious on American Idols: tonight features the American Dream, Money and Success. Guarding tonight in prayer, praying for numbers and readied hearts as the gospel is preached.

Spirit. I feel the Lord moving. Across our campus into new hearts. In our own hearts. Teaching us new things, Challenging us beyond what we could have ever imagined. My prayer is that we recognize what He gives. Knowing that all things come from Him. Giving thanks. But also that we approach everything in prayer. This truth needing to be preached most into my heart. I pray we do nothing apart from God and His presence. For what is any sort of progress without Him?

Peace.It's strange how peaceful I feel in the midst of such a crazy week. I think the Lord just wants me to know how much He is in control. If I just continue following the path that He is calling me to, everything will work out.

Trust. Trusting in His plan. Trusting Him to be in control.

Surrender. Surrendering my will. Surrendering my control.

Truth. Psalm 29:
Ascribe to the LORD, O heavenly beings,
ascribe to the LORD glory and strength.
Ascribe to the LORD the glory due his name;
worship the LORD in
the splendor of holiness.

The voice of the LORD is over the waters;
the God of glory thunders,
the LORD, over many waters.
The voice of the LORD is powerful;
the voice of the LORD is full of majesty.

The voice of the LORD breaks the cedars;
the LORD breaks
the cedars of Lebanon.
He makes Lebanon to skip like a calf,
and Sirion like a young wild ox.

The voice of the LORD flashes forth flames of fire. The The voice of the LORD shakes the wilderness;

the LORD shakes the wilderness of Kadesh.

The voice of the LORD makes the deer give birth
and strips the forests bare,
and in his temple all cry, "Glory!"

The LORD sits enthroned over the flood;
the LORD sits enthroned
as king forever.
May the LORD give strength to his people!
May the LORD bless
his people with peace!
