“Then a great and powerful wind tore the mountains apart and shattered the rocks before the LORD, but the LORD was not in the wind. After the wind there was an earthquake, but the LORD was not in the earthquake. After the earthquake came a fire, but the LORD was not in the fire. And after the fire came a gentle whisper.” 1 Kings 19:11-12
I have never been more in love. God has been all over this place. I have learned so much about my Creator, so much about my role in this story. Though I am just a speck in the vast and glorious story, I am loving every minute of it and am humbled at the work of God. Today, I am struggling to find the words. All that comes out of my mouth is praise. Praises for his manifestation in both camps, praises for a new hope seen in these students lives, praises for redemption. Something foreign and distant, they now can have. They are new, cleansed, and refreshed. A new relationship has begun with Christ. And it was not by me, it was not by any of us. But only by Christ. Only by His blood, only by his love, just Him. I long to be the vessel.
"The Spirit and the bride say, "Come!" And let him who hears say, "Come!" Whoever is thirsty, let him come; and whoever wishes, let him take the free gift of the water of life."
Revelation 22:17
