Last night Jeff drove me and his friend Ray back to UCSD. So I shared Jesus with him and all the good stuff, and he found it interesting because he hasn't really looked into any belief. He's never been to a church service and have anyone shared with him the Gospel. He is from Shen Yang providence and he came over to the US when he was 7. A really great and chill dude. Lord I pray that the seed planted inside of Ray will start to grow. Thank You Lord for a great talk. I look forward to chat with him again.
Had a really dry Computing in Art class. I sat in the first row. No lights or whatsoever--just this HUGE powerpoint presentation....so bright. And I had to tilt my head quite high to see everything, especially when there are millions of words on that slide, especially I didn't have any breakfast or lunch, just some cereal.
Anyhow, I've got a good ol' LONG week ahead of me. Please keep my physical and spiritual health in you prayers. I've been feeling really tired overall today.
Listening to Mark singing right now. God's peace just starting to flow within me. I don't know about you, but sometimes when I just listen to Mark speak or pray or say a verse, tears would just fill my eyes.
Deuteronomy 11 is a great chapter.
And so is Jeremiah 31.
Go check it out and read them through!
I will send rain on your land in its season, both autumn and spring rains, so that you may gather in your grain, new wine and oil. I will provide grass in the fields for your cattle, and you will eat and be satisfied.
-Deuteronomy 11:14~15-
They will come and shout for joy on the heights of Zion;
they will rejoice in the bounty of the Lord--
the grain, the new wine and the oil,
the young of the flocks and herds.
They will be like a will-watered garden,
and they will sorrow no more.
-Jeremiah 31:12-
Right on the top of Jer. 31 I wrote:
"About the Coming Days"
Is this prophetic? I don't know. But it's cool that I wrote it sometime before, probably in December! And this past weekend was the dawn of the coming days!
And in NLV, this chapter is called Israel Returns Home.
Just want to throw that out. Pretty cool stuff. We are returning to the Garden of Eden. Our very first home. Back to the garden that bears new fruits in the new season--and walk with the Lord and hear His voice as clear as He hears ours.
I love this word: NEW. It means "not existing before" or "not seen or experienced". We have entered into a new dimension of God's goodness, favor, and works! I believe in the next three or four months, we'll be shaped to inhabit yet another big chunk of His kingdom!
I'm pumped, and tired too!
Mainly pumped.
