I used to laugh at my brother for "blogging his feelings." I mean, a computer can't show empathy or help you solve a problem, but I think he was on to something! Now whenever I have an incredible experience my first thought is "Oh my goodness I need to blog about this!" With that being said...
We had a special prayer time during chapel for all the traveling nursing students leaving on Wednesday. I was grateful for the prayer, but I had no idea how powerful the spirit of God would be felt during this time. Hundreds of students gathered around us and prayed for safe travel, protection while there, and most importantly that we would effectively spread the love of Christ to the people we came into contact with. I have honestly never felt the way I did today. I just had a sense that God is going to do amazing things through all three teams. I am so thankful for this opportunity and I can hardly wait to leave on Wednesday!
After our prayer time, a friend of mine led us in worship. One of the songs we sang has become a new favorite so I decided to post the lyrics.
Our God Saves
Paul Baloche
In the name of the Father
In the name of the Son
In the name of the Spirit
Lord we've come
We're gathered together
To lift up Your name
To call on our Savior
To fall on Your grace
Hear the joyful sound of our offering
As your saints bow down, as your people sing
We will rise with You, lifted on Your wings
And the world will see that
Our God saves, our God saves
There is hope in Your name
Mourning turns to songs of praise
Our God saves, our God saves, yeah
This is and will continue to be an encouragement to me.
Talk to you soon!
