What a day.
Today was the best day of the summer. I gave my testimony to a group of 25 teenage boys and girl today, i had been thinking about it from the moment I woke up this morning to the moment I pored my heart out to these kids.
I prayed for two hours before I gave my testimony and just thought about what direction I wanted to go with it and God rapidly brought ideas and verses into my head. Before I was supposed to go I felt sick to my stomach though, which was weird because I don't usually get nervous about speaking. However when I started speaking God just brought the words and the pace and everything those kids needed to hear. I shared parts of my life that I have never shared before and every boy in that room was captivated as I spoke. There was a shaking in my voice for the last half of my testimony but I knew I wasn't gonna cry, God just stirred up so much passion in me. I just hope that my story hit home for one of those kids.
After chapel though I could tell that the kids thought of me differently, yeah all week I was the chill, goofy, girl counselor who they didn't take all that seriously, but after chapel I could tell they respected my ability to get deep and to just help them to understand my snd Gods love for each of them.
I wish I had more time with them for they are just starting to open up, but tomorrow is the last day and it only goes till two.
Thank you guys for your support this summer, God has blown my expectation out of the water, for how will I ever jump right back into school and daily life now?
