God, thank you so much for the time tonight, to be able to praise and worship together campus wide. Jesus Week. Thank you for your unconditional love, the sacrifice of your only Son, of which we don't deserve. But, through your grace and mercy, we have hope and new life.
God, this night was just amazing. To be able to sing and shout, I wish it went on for longer! This week's just been pretty busy. (2 chem labs, midterm, phys assignment, biol assignment, biol test, calc assignment, calc midterm to come). I've been relying on your strength, you've taught me not to worry, yet I haven't really chilled with you alone lately. With that, the quality of time with you have suffered.
Tonight, seeing people come together across the campus, across the fellowship come together and worship and praise as one voice, one unity in the body of Christ- it was so encouraging.
To be able to focus on You, and You along, God, was refreshing and well needed, and a wakeup call to me that you are everything I long for, not my academics, not my reputation, not my achievements. Nothing else can satisfy my desire and passion.
I ask that the Holy Spirit will dwell in us so that we may live pure and godly lives so that others may see your love and goodness reflected in us.
Prayer is so powerful. All night, I know the Spirit worked throughout the night. Pray. Pray. Pray. I felt a peace that I haven't had in a while, and all my worries and life was left outside the door. It was so good to slow things down, time didn't matter anymore. I only wanted to focus on God. It's 2:30am, I've had a long day and I'm still not exhausted. Hmm...Weird.
"..rejoice in the hope of the glory of God." Romans 5:2b
May Your glory fall on the campus, and Your name be lifted high all across Waterloo this week!
Sola Gratia.
