God did a lot today. It was an intensely cool day.
Megan and I went for coffee at Bordertown this morning before class, and had a really good talk. There was a lot of reconciliation involved, which was a total answer to prayer. God is merciful. I couldn't swallow my pride to bring the issue up, but Megan did. The Lord is faithful.
Classes are going better, mainly I think because I'm actually taking the time to prepare for them. Go figure. :)
This evening, however, was the coolest time because God gave me boldness to share a little of my relationship with Jesus with a couple of girls at work. I don't even know where the words came from, or how the conversation even started. It just happened. One of the girls I know thinks I'm crazy. It amazed me, though, that she had only really just heard the name of Jesus. She didn't even know who I was talking about when I just used "Christ" to refer to Him. I had never experienced that before. She doesn't believe in God, though, because she thinks science has disproved His existence. But then, she also said she doesn't know very much about God or Christianity. Which is sad, because that definitely says to me that she only has vague opinions that are based on lies she's believing. But I have hope for her, and I am praying that she will just not be able to get our conversation out of her head, that she will meet more believers (ones who will be kind to her, not judgmental or preachy), and that she will just be interested. Tonight happened for a reason.
But today I can only say that everything was a testament to Jesus' faithfulness in my life. And His mercy, and His grace, and His love. He has blessed me. :) I have to mention, I found myself worrying about this weekend, because of the guy thing. I was starting to feel really distressed...I was worried he would distract me, and I just prayed that Jesus would help me not to be attracted to him. But I actually started to feel a little sick in my heart over it. So I was worrying and worrying in my head, but then this still, soft voice echoed in my mind, saying "trust Me." And so He brought to mind different verses and songs and I started singing and all of a sudden I felt uplifted. I love this! I LOVE it when He does this! It's so COOL!!! I cannot wait for East Asia.

Hi Morgan,
Your post reminded me of Acts 17, the first time Paul is talking to "unchurched" people in Athens. When they called him a idle babbler, but somehow the Holy Spirit gave him the perfect words to speak to them so that they would be able to understand.
Just thought I'd add a little encouragement.
Hope you are having a good semester. Can I come visit you soon and hear about your ensuing trip to China?
