Hey you resolved attendees! Hope you guys are having fun in learning God's word! Praying for you guys always! Stay safe.

Bible study today was at my house, and since some were at Resolved, there weren't much... maybe at around 15-17 attended, but the total amount of peole doesn't matter. As long as God's glorified, its good! We learned about pride and how Satan targets out pride. It happens to all of us... Even me. Thinking you're better than everyone else... and getting all competitive... and thinking your important now that you have a "title" and feeling all cocky about it. Eeeh, uncomfortable... but true. We should always be humble with what God has placed in our lives. And we all are uniquely made in the eyes of God. We are all important in the eyes of God, and not even a "title" at church can make us more important than someone without a "title".
Anyway, before bible study, me, hannah and kuya la ron were talking about Regen! And guess what?! Its in TWO weeks. Pretty stoked maaan, seriously. Lets just say my first time at Regen was pretttttty memorable.
Before attending Regen, I have been going through tough times with the past and bringing it to the present. Ouch. I was literally broken into pieces and nothing could fix me. Maybe like things that pleased me (like hanging out with friends) for a little while, but I still felt broken in the end. I wasn't that excited for Regen because I felt a little iffy about it and I was a little discouraged to go... But I still went because the church has paid for me already. So when I got there, I didn't know what to expect. But when I left Regen, I was a different person. God stole my heart there. I don't know how else to word it. Words cant even explain how much a cried out to God and realize my need for God. I came there as a broken person, but left as a person who was fixed and molded differently by the hands of God.
It was simply amazing how God has been so patient with me and been so gracious to me to even think about loving me and saving me from my brokenness. I deserve His wrath because of how many times I've rebelled, turned away from Him, etc. Praise God for He is WORTHY of my praise and your praise.
This year, or in two weeks, in Regen, I pray and hope that many will meet God for who He really is. I pray that those who haven't realized their need for God, will realize it there like what happened to me.
Eeeeeeeh, so excited :) And this time, many will be coming from the youth... not just 5 kids. LOL
Yaaaaaaay <3 Praise God! I can't wait to see and hear what God has in store for me there... yaaaaays!
J, I'm excited for Regen too! I'm so glad that more are coming w/ us. I pray that we'll have a really meaningful weekend at Biola! I too learned so much from last year's conference.
ReplyDeleteAh, YAY! :) (Ohp, I'm a few days late.. still catching up on my blog reads!) It's really encouraging to read about how excited you are for Regen & how much you're growing in His love. I pray that you are all continuously building firm foundations on Christ!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for praying for us... I learned SO much at Resolved. :) Praise God. I missed you all though! But no worries, I'll see you soon :)
