Pablo

Proverbs 19:21
You can make many plans,
      but the Lord’s purpose will prevail.


Beautiful Jesus
How may I bless Your heart?
Knees to the earth
I bow down to everything You are
Beautiful Jesus
You are my only worth
So I will embrace You always
As I walk this earth
-Knees to the Earth Watermark

God has a purpose for everything. His purpose is beautiful. Today I prayed that I would find Chris. I also prayed that God would hold the rain until I got to GW. He answered one of my prayers and said no to the other one. He had a purpose for me.

God bless me with a "bubble of dryness", but I could not find my dear friend. I decided to sit on the bench and spent about ten minutes trying to figure out if I should wait or leave. I finally made the choice to head back. God had other plans for me because as soon as I hit A-wing it started to pour.

I tried to look for him at the library, but failed again. So I made my way back to the bench and sat next to this guy. He asked me if I walked to GW in the rain. I replied by saying that it wasn't raining or sprinkling. It was dripping so it was no biggie. I also added that there was no way I was going to walk back in the rain so I was stuck until further notice. At this very moment I spotted David and asked him if he saw Chris. David said he already left.

It stopped raining so I started my journey back to GCC. My new friend followed and we started to talk about school and summer. I was looking for some type of opportunity to tell him about my club. I saw NOTHING. Eventually he mentioned that he always saw me around campus holding my bible. He said I must be really religious. That was my chance. I retorted that I wouldn't call it religious because religion was based on practicing the same thing over and over again. I told him that I had a relationship with God. He said oh so you want to get closer to God. I said exactly, because there is room for change and growth. I told him that I'm going to have a club next year that will talk about the bible and God's love. I hope that talking to this guy planted a seed in his heart that will grow into a life giving tree.

Psalm 37:3-6

Trust in the Lord, and do good;
dwell in the land and befriend faithfulness.
Delight yourself in the Lord,
and he will give you the desires of your heart.

Commit your way to the Lord;
trust in him, and he will act.
He will bring forth your righteousness as the light,
and your justice as the noonday.
