Thursday nights on base are evangelism - everyone does it - everyone has to do it. Am I over joyed? definitely not.. am I at peace with it? I am now. So on Thursday Chasity, staff, Taryn, roommate, and I were in a group to go around Mt Lawley area... our base group met at the park and we split up. We went to a bench first just to receive guidance from God about the next few hours. So we sat by the pond on a bench covered in nasty little hair loving spiders that, thankfully, only went on Taryn and Chasity and we prayed that God would speak to us about the night. So as I was sitting there with my eyes closed trying not to distract myself, I could see the little beems of light coming through my eyelids from the sun that was starting to go down over the trees. So as I sat there looking at the moving streams of light.. with my eyes closed .. yes I'm strange.. all of a sudden it all went really dark... no light. I wasn't startled or anything it was just like a change.. like "oh this is different," Like how your now shocked when you open your eyes after blinking.. anyways enough description. So it was all dark and then in the middle was this even darker silhouette of an old man and I could barely see and facial features becuase it was so dark, and he was whispering but I couldn't hear him. So I kept staring and kept listening to this man and I couldn't get anything I couldnt see his lips well enough to read is lips. So I opened my eyes like.. omgoodness what's going and on. And still I have no idea what that means. OH and this other thing. We prayed to ask God what direction we should go in to see if we all got the same answer. So I had north in my head all along and was like .. God please .. like if you're gunna show yourself subtly do it now, please God. So then I had this feeling like "I already told you.. go north!" So I was like.. alrighty then North it is. So then Chas said Lincoln street and Taryn said in the direction the wind was blowing.. so get this.. lincoln street ran east to west but was located north of where we were sitting and the wind was blowing towards lincoln street = north. HOW COOL!
anyways so thats my excitement from the last few days.
