James 5:13-16
13Is any one of you in
trouble? He should pray. Is anyone happy? Let him sing songs of praise. 14Is any one of you sick? He
should call the elders of the church to pray over him and anoint him
with oil in the name of the Lord. 15And the prayer offered in faith will make the
sick person well; the Lord will raise him up. If he has sinned, he will
be forgiven. 16Therefore
confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may
be healed. The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective.
So, this is my last blog before I leave I think. It’s thursday and I’m leavin Saturday morning at 7:00 am from Pensacola, FL!
I just wanna thank you guys for wantin to be a part of all this and I hope this blog blesses you, encourages you, moves you, breaks your heart, gives you joy, anything and everything else there is!
This past(i never know if you’re supposed to use past or passed! they kinda mean the same thing yeah?) week I had the privilege of volunteering for Vacation Bible School at my church, and I ended up being the “adult” volunteer for the 3rd grade M-Z. I thought sweet, I absolutely love kids, BUT this was my first experience with a class of nothing but…. GIRLS! My class had 15 eight to nine year old girls. haha it was definitely a challenge I was not expecting, but I wouldn’t change last week for anything in the world. These girls have been etched onto my heart and I will be praying for them as much as I can. I have a feeling i’m going to end up meeting some little girls throughout my trip who are going to remind me of them.
Through these girls, I got a little taste of how God feels, not some of the time but ALL of the time! I don’t blame em, but it wasn’t exactly easy trying to keep these girls under control so some of the time i was a little overwhelmed and I can’t imagine how God feels when countless numbers of his children aren’t listening to Him and honoring him with what they’re doing. So through this week I have even more respect for my God. I can’t wait to take the bounds off of Him and let Him show me more of who He is and more of His character.
Welp, this blog has been completely random and these videos will be even more random! They have nothing to do with this blog but maybe they have everything to do with you? I’m a work in progress when it comes to confessing my sins but I really have seen the healing that comes from it! Be blessed this next year, i will miss you all!
p.s. if you are a parent of one of these wonderful girls in my class, they were just girls bein girls! Nothing out of the ordinary, they’re all normal.
