It Is Well

First of all, Thank you God for giving these men a heart after you, and the musical talent to show it. Earlier this week when I was out in Swift Current for a blood donor clinic, I picked up the new Kutless CD. Wow, I don't I have found a better way to be distracted from homework. I would be working on something and then I would have my eyes closed and just be praise God. At the moment I am listening to a song called Redeemer. "There is a Redeemer, Jesus God's own Son, Precious Lamb of God, Messiah, Holy One" I know it is not their own lyrics, but wow. Once, I started signing, and just kept going till the CD was done. It is not the band that did this. God is amazing, He is like, hmm, well I can't really say. If I had a word perfect enough to describe God, my brain would explode. God created me, with the talents I have. I can have an impact for the Kingdom of God, even if I am not reaching millions at one time.

So the blood donor clinic. Found out that my rest BP is lower than most people. Em I really that relaxed. Then again, my active BP is higher, so does that mean I am stressed. Meh, I gave blood. Just under 5 minutes as well. Only had one person from our group that had a little mishap. She finished giving blood, and was holding the cotton ball and became light headed, it was a grand old time bugging her. It was a good time, was able to spend some time with my mentor. It was a blast.

So yea that was the exciting part of my week. Next week should be fun, teach on Monday, Preach on Thursday. This weekend is going to be full of prep work. Youth Edge is coming up soon, 2 weeks from now. Then a break for a week.

"I've been ashamed/I've been put down/Head in my hands/My life on the ground/Left heaven to save liars and thieves/Sinners like me/Your blood sets us free."

God Bless,
Daniel

Looking up from my notes

Good Evening Ladies and Gents. Just got back from a worship time. My trip back home was nice, not long enough, but it never is. Saw some people that I really wanted to see, still wish I could have connected with some others more.

This up coming weekend I am going out with my Field Ed team to the YFC drop-in centre in Weyburn. One of my friends from here at school worked there this past summer, and told us that we could have many kids or none. This will be I good opportunity to work with youth and share Christ with them.

But need to get back to some studying. Peace and God Bless!

Relief!!!!

I AM DONE!!! Well at least for this week. Just finished up my Hom assignment. I was trying to read Greek. It didn't go to well. I can say I tried, kinda failed, but came out okay. It was nice to have some people to be working along side.

I am so excited to be going home this weekend. I get to see Cassie, and her amazing driving skills. Still have 2 more days of classes and then and then a drive home, but it should go by fast. This month has gone by fast. A lot of things happened. God has protected a couple of friends this week. They rolled their car and stayed safe. God is truly amazing, we went to look at the car and the way the roof was sitting, they shouldn't have made it. Considering each came out with only a concussion, one worse than the other, but still. God had a hand in saving them.

Only a couple more weeks and then its Youth Edge. It should be a blast, the youth group is coming out. Cassie and Aryssa will be there too, they will get to see where I am living and the campus.

Historical Books Paper???

Yea, I am suppose to be writing a paper, but I just thought it was time to break. Plus I just felt like not working at the moment. So, the paper is about how God is trustworthy and how humanity contrasts that. Well, we trust God, but so easily forget how much He has done for us. Israel was pulled up out of Egypt, provided for in the wilderness, given the Promise Land and they still think they can do it better. WOW!!!! Then I was thinking how often do I not trust God. Hmmm. I don't think I could number how many times that is.

On another note, this weekend is Thanksgiving. Get to go home to all the people I love. I like being here at Millar, but miss my home so much. Plus I get to meet someone new, Liam. A couple at my church had a baby this past weekend. So excited!

God blesses us in every way possible. Keep that in mind next time you want to try and do something without him.
