A little thanks and A little revelation.

Ok...so I know that they didn't plan this, but tonight I had to wait on the brigde across from the school for my mom to pick me up, and I was all by myself...gathering odd glances from all who passed....and then like practically EVERYONE came over and talked with me....

Jrod, Abby, Stephanie, Megan, Michael, Amy F. , Amy S., Adam, Brandon, Ben, Jason, Andy, Rachael, Millie, Steph's friend Nate, and uh...hmm..I feel like I'm forgetting someone....oh well, there were a ton of people and without them I would've been depressed and embarrassed by the time I got home....so thanks for all of your impeccable timing...it made my evening.

Also...(watch out, I'm pulling out my religious side...) I was spoken to by God.

Yeah, so maybe I shoulda put this one first since it's prolly more important than people finding me alone on the bridge, but what the hey...

Anyways...yeah, God has spoken to me. See, my church has sold our building, and we've been without santuary for almost 3 years...we've had so much trouble with the buyers not paying rent, and things of the like that we haven't really had much time to accomplish our ultimate goal: to build a new church building.

So, in light of our lack of moving forward, our pastor had come up with the idea that we should create a "Mission Counsel"....basically, a group of people willing to attend meetings and share their feelings about our new-in-the-process church. They would be the ones in the congregation really pushing to find ground, and start getting this thing done.

Well, when I first heard about this, I thought that I'd like to be on it...this is really important to me and I wanted to be out there in front, doing something about it. Although, I'm only 15...and thinking that I would be too young, I pushed it out of my mind.

Then, all of the sudden, this afternoon our congregation was meeting about it, trying to find about 8 ppl to form this Mission Counsel...and I felt God speak to me....

Before I knew it, I was being put in with a few others, all with the church in mind....we're gonna build this church.

I know, this prolly isn't a big deal to anyone that reads this....but honestly....God spoke to me....he touched me..and I feel so moved....

I'm not sure why He wants me to be on this counsel....but I have a feeling that it's the right thing....

AND....I really like Andy.............................
