So tonight me and karina went to our school to pray.
We wanted to just pray for our campus, and for all the students that go to it.
It was a little risky... considering there was teachers, staff, and custodians on campus.
But we knew we were doing something right, and that God would watch over us.
We decided to lay in the very middle of the quad...before we started I looked up at the sky and saw the moon. I smiled, and then looked at Karina.
She took out her bible and we were reading about the 7 bowls of God's wrath in Revelation. We were talking about how sad it was that a lot of people we knew were going to have to go through that if we didn't speak up. We were talking about how if we really loved people, we would try to steer them in God's direction and lovingly show them the truth.
We decided we wanted to pray with our eyes open and looking at the sky.
All I remember at this point is karina's gasp when she first looked up.
Then of course, I looked up, and I got the chills.
There were now clouds, and they were moving past the moon. Funny thing is...the clouds were ONLY over our school.
Hello God?!
He definitely made His presence known at that moment.
We felt more at peace with what we were doing, confident that God was on our side, and smiling :)
We prayed for boldness and wisdom. We prayed for all the students. We prayed for certain students. We prayed about other things.
Then it was over.
But I felt SO at peace.
And while we were praying, and looking up at the sky... I realized something;
Why were me and karina so scared to talk to people at school? All we need to do is look UP and remember that GOD is BIGGER, and He is in US. There is no doubt about it.
Just like Mark said at Christian Club, there is MORE power in me and karina, then there is in the rest of the school. That should give us assurance.
God is so powerful, and I KNOW He is able to transform lives. We may not feel like its even possible at ALL, but through God..I know me and Kari-ri can do it.
We can be that light.
Thankyou Jesus :)
