Good morning to you over there in California! By the time you are starting your day I have had breakfast and lunch! After my breakfast I went on a walk throughout the campus. Everything is very green here and quite beautiful! I walked and walked just enjoying the clean air and my surroundings. I went all the way to the back gate and looked out to find a...I guess a highway. I continued on around the campus and found a little bench and sat there for a bit just taking in what great things the Lord has given us here on earth! I eventually ended up in my dorm room and knocked out. Apparently I'm not over the time difference just yet.Psalms 25:4-5
Make me know Thy way, O Lord;
Teach me They paths.
Lead me in They truth and teach me,
For Thou art the God of my salvation;
For Thee I wait all the day.
As I go through this year at Word of Life, I am praying that the Lord shows me His way. I want to walk His way-whichever way that may be. I want to be lead by him in all that I do. At lunch I sat and talked with Ivan again, an RA from Serbia. We talked about much, but what really stuck with me was that I need to ask Him to give me a yearning for the Word. With knowledge of the Word comes appreciation and closeness to our Lord. So after lunch I took my Bible and took another walk out to the soccer field where there is a weird sort of post with three steps. I sat there for an hour or so reading, praying, and being encouraged.
Dear Lord,
Thank you for bringing me safely to Hungary and to Word of Life. May you instill in me a love and yearning for not only you but for your word. May my thoughts be set on you, my heart desiring only you. Grant me mercy with my studies as I hear they can be overwhelming. May you show me your ways and paths. Help to differentiate between what I want and what you want. In everything I know you are by my side.
Unbelievably beautiful Victory! Thanks for sharing.
