so wait, wait, wait. have i ever talked about HOW GOOD THE LORD IS!!!!!!!
THIS IS THE SEASON FOR PRODIGAL SONS!!!! THIS IS SUCH SUCH ANSWER TO PRAYER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AHHHHH
I now officially know 2, YEAH THAT'S RIGHT! 2 prodigal sons. This one's name is Cheyenneeeeee <3333333 oh i love her so so so so much. I've been friends with this girl since KINDERGARTEN! i even lived with her for a month temporarily when i was without a home. she has the biggest heart for people, and is sooo happy-go-lucky.
last summer, i was there when she accepted Jesus Christ into her life, and it was SUCH A JOYOUS CELEBRATION! everyone was cheering and ecstatic, but once that short short time of celebrating ended, she seemed to fall back into the life she'd always been living. Parties, focusing on boyfriends, forgetting completely about Jesus Christ and her new life that was waiting for her. Things would always be so dry for her, and she would never seem to have that supernatural joy that she'd had last summer.
THERE HAS BEEN LOTS AND LOTS of prayer for that girl! lettt meee just sayyy, that people really do love her. more than she understands, and God is so good to hear all of our prayers! A specific prayer for Cheyenne was answered last week, with dramatic results! the prayer had been for something drastic to happen so that she would come to the realization that Jesus doesn't want to see her wasting her life on fruitless things anymore..............and whadduyaknow.......WABAM, the Lord showed the me/everyong else who prayerd just how closely He listens.
Last week, Cheyenne was in a major car crash. A driver going about 70 mph hit the side of her vehicle! It was so serious, that police told her, she should have died from the impact. Her car went spinning off the road, while the other car crumpled to pieces! The car that Cheyenne was in was completely totaled, and the other driver was carried away on a stretcher, BUT BY THE GRACE OF GOD Cheyenne walked away with not even a scratch! She has a little whiplash, but nothing compared to the pile of metal formerly known as the car she was in. Last Saturday night, she gave me a call saying how God had been speaking to her so intimately, and she really wanted to come to church. So Sunday came, and we sat together, and prayed, praised, and worshipped side by side. The service was alllll about how serious having and not having salvation is. A definite reality check that spurred her to rededicated her life to Jesus Christ!! Now, she wants to dig into her Bible, she's dead serious [no pun intended] about living a Holy life for our merciful Lord and Savior, and says that nothing is better than His comsuming love!
i stinkinnnn LOVE Jesus! He never had to die on the cross and save us from death, just like he didn't have to have grace on Cheyenne during that car accident. But PRAISE Him for his ever-abounding mercies that are new every morning! She is ONNNNN FIREEEE for Jesus now, and i ammmm Lovingggg every second where i can watch my oldest friend fall so in love with the God of the universe!
All Glory and Honor and Power and Praise and Worship and Blessings to the God who saves!!!!!!
