Tonight was the first night of our freshman Bible study I am co-leading with my friend Natalie. 3 freshman joined us tonight and we had a great time answering fun questions, sharing stories, eating candy, laughing and praying together. I am so excited for this semester, and all that God has in store for these girls! They were all so eager to share with each other and really grow in their relationship with God this semester, and excited for what He is going to teach them! It was so encouraging to see.
After we prayed to close the night, one of the girls shared with us that she saw an image while we were praying of a gold clock, with a pendulum ticking back and forth. She said she felt like God was saying how important our time as a group is. That it is golden, and we should be treasuring it this semester.
I am so excited to get to know these beautiful ladies!
This night also brought me back to my freshman year, as I sat in that same room, meeting the girls I would get to know and love, and my wonderful Bible study leader. It is so amazing to me that I am now in that same position Alissa was. A senior, preparing to graduate. And so different from the quiet, shy, insecure freshman from four years ago.
As I shared my testimony with these girls tonight, it was wonderful to reflect on all that God has done in my life. How incredibly faithful He has been and will continue to be. How the hard times have also brought about the most lessons and growth. And how He has broken and molded my heart so that I now have desires to do things, go places and love people I never would have imagined!
Isn't God AMAZING?!
