What's New Caribou

I was starting to worry that I wasn't going to get a bunch of mailing addresses from my friends back in Denver, but they totally came through! Praise God! He is so awesome! =) I love him! So for those of you who were willing to do that, THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! You made me very happy!

Last night we had our weekly prayer meeting. We actually didn't get a whole lot of praying in, but it was totally awesome anyway. Before the meeting I went to the campus early, which isn't unusual for me, to read my Bible some and do some prayin' 'round campus. It was sooo nice out! It's wonderful to have sun and heat back for a while. (In case you can't tell, I'm very much a summer girl, winter is not my season). So I read some more of 2 Chronicles, which I am two chapters away from finishing, and then I thought I was just pray around the campus. I walked the whole campus, it was great, and just prayed over each building as I passed around it. It was a really good time, very enjoyable.

Since it was so nice out I had a feeling that we would end up praying outside, so I tried not to tire myself out too much. When I finished I got something to eat and headed up to our meeting place. Sure enough once everyone was there we resolved to go outside and pray! What we did pray was good. I have to admit I couldn't hear what anyone was praying because we were in a line and I was on the end. But I laid back on the cement where we were sitting and just looked up at the sky as the stars began to show through. It was so beautiful. I just lay there and praised God for what He had made. I felt as thought I could reach up and pull the the bottomless blue down around me like a blanket.

So we finished praying, which didn't take long and started talking, and Anna wanted to play a game. I thought that was a great idea because for whatever reason I was in a particularly good mood last night, joy of Lord, amen! The guys weren't really into that idea, but Aaron came up with a massage circle, so we went inside the Music building and did a massage line because the circle was too tight. It was most pleasant! After a few minutes we switched it up and did it again. It was fun! And then we just stood around and talked for a while. It was a really good meeting. Although we didn't pray a whole lot, the Lord blessed us with some extra joy and the time to share it with one another in His presence, and that makes a difference in the world.

Tonight I get to meet with my friend Daniel. I'm really excited about it, I think God is going to do something amazing for him. He's been in a bit of a tough place for quite a while and really needs the love and peace of Jesus in his life. I'm excited that the Lord has put me in a position to show him that kind of love. I find that I'm quite surprised at how much I do care for Daniel, with out much reason to. I don't know him particularly well, we aren't really that close, but I love him very much. As a friend and brother that is. I want so much for him to know Christ and the love of the Lord as I do that I think I would do pretty much anything if it would help him believe. Really believe. Not just to say he believe, but to truly, down from his toes to the top of his head, believe and see that in him. I want him to live and thrive in all the glory of the Lord, which He wants to share with our dear Daniel. So, the Lord will meet with us tonight and bless our conversation and fellowship, and it will be awesome!

Thursday the Serbia team that is on CSU-P campus is going to be fasting and then we'll get together and pray. Friday we're going to get together and stuff envelopes! yay! I'm very happy =D
