Good afternoon everyone! I hope you're having an amazing day like me! I've even enjoyed the random sun showers that we've been getting all day - it's like the weather is as indecisive as I am!
I just got out of my Christian Leadership class, and it was absolutely wonderful. That class has always been my favorite, but today even more of a blessing than normal. We had to break off into groups to analyze a passage in Scripture (Acts 6:1-7) to determine the leadership principles that the apostles' utilized. I was placed in a group with only guys, which made me just a bit hesitant to share because I know that sometimes men can be put off by women trying to force their opinions. However, after I shared my analysis, the group elected me to act as the leader of our group in presenting the views to the class; our professor complimented us on our analysis and praised us for really grasping the principles in this passage, acknowledging our group as "Sam and her group."
I know that's really not a big deal, but I was beaming afterward. As I shared before, I've really been struggling with seeking God's will and what He has called me to do in order to be a useful instrument for Him. There have been very few times in my life where I've experienced the amazing sensation that I'm doing "what I'm meant to do" (as cheesy as that sounds). Whenever I am in my ministry classes, sharing my faith with others, working back in the student ministry at my home church, or leading worship, I just feel on fire. It's an indescribable sensation. God is so faithful to put us where we need to be. Our heavenly Father wants us to be filled with joy! He longs to bless us!
Oh, and here's some other exciting things! This Saturday, I get to work at the local zoo to help put on their Halloween event for kids and I'm super excited! I also get to go back home next weekend, and I get to plan my best friend's birthday. I'm taking her to Disney World around Christmas time so we can go to the Magic Kingdom along with one of our best guy friends. I'm so excited to do this for her; plus I'm always excited to get to go to my favorite place ever! Yes, I am a little kid at heart <3
