Renewal

It was an amazing night of worship and prayer with my sisters and brothers here at school. This experience just keeps getting better and better. I know for sure that I have been called here "for such a time as this". Life could not have more perfect timing for me. I am in a great school, making great friends and absolutely finding  myself admiring a friend more and more everyday... I know that can sound weird. BUT it's not. 

I got some much needed healing tonight in our night of worship. I found something that I needed to set at the foot of the cross, at Jesus' feet, and let the continual flow of blood saturate it and make it new and cover it. I just love how He can do that. Something I was told today made me think. Do we know that the blood that was shed on calvary 2,000 years ago still flows to this day and will keep flowing until Jesus comes back for us and there is no need for His blood after that. I don't think some people realize that today. That is what we are saved by today, not our works or our good behavior, it is BY HIS BLOOD. And by accepting and realizing that is what He did for us. And to realize that we are sinners and need a savior. WOW... that hit me today and I just felt so much better about my relationship with God. I know that when I struggle with something I can take it to the cross and I can lay it down and He will make it new again. I love it. I have to admit that I mess up on a daily basis. I am far from perfect, if that even exists. 

I think I struggle with things sometimes that it feels like no one else around me does. But that is why I have a high priest that has been through everything I have and can take my sin to the Father and say hey.. I have had to fight that and it is not easy... so I think we should give her credit for realizing it was wrong and wanting to make it right...(repenting). Isn't that amazing... Jesus does that.. the bible says that he intercedes for us... WOW I am one lucky person to have Jesus as my "accountant" LOL... that is loosely stated... But He goes to bat for me when my knees are knocking and I am all bruised up and can't go another inning. THANK YOU!!! I love Jesus so much... 

So that is pretty much what happened for me today... with a little sadness, a little happiness, some excitement and then some forgiveness... we all need that sometimes.... Now I am going to get a little rest. Till next time... May you know that you are loved and cared for beyond anything you could imagine....
