How to survive on nothing but Christ for 4 years (and counting)
So the craziest thing just happened. A woman named Dana just phoned me. I met Dana 4 years ago when I was part of an Alpha program. She was instrumental in my early days as a believer.
Anyway, a lot has clearly happened n 4 years. I mean, she's got two kids now. And I'm in university. And 4 years old. We had an interesting talk in regards to the gifts of tongues (she brought it up.) Apparently making off-hand comments such as "I'm not a charismatic by any means." fosters conversation. Anyway, I'm a cessationist. She's a charismatic. But the awesome thing is that she said "What is important is focusing on God's will and if you need to be corrected, he'll do that, and if I do, he'll do that." Yay for humility. I should learn.
She phoned cause last night when she was praying I came to her mind, and apparently the Lord told her that I am "confused" and need to "return to him." Sounds like my own personal Old Testament life. She's bang on though, or should I say, God is bang on. Prayer and Bible study is needed, and God, I need you to show me where I need to go and what I need to do with my life.
Hallelujah. Let that resonate. Praise the Lord for old friends who speak words of wisdom.
"Oh Christ when You're ready to come back
I think I'm ready for You to come back.
But if You want to stay wherever exactly it is You are,
that's okay too - it's really none of my business."-

Sometimes, Noah, you are that old friend.
Thanks for everything.
