Praise Him!

It seems amidst the hustle and bustle of making preparations for college, God has been working. A girl in my room at PCC when I stayed for Pre-Med camp told me Monday that she accepted Christ. On the plane to PCC I had prayed that God would send someone to me that I could be a blessing and help to. When I met her, I immediately knew she was the answer to prayer. I talked to her long into the night for several days, and it seemed she had had a very hard childhood and was currently in some very bad situations. She told me she was already saved, but upset at God. I prayed for wisdom in the situation and the right words to say, but it seemed nothing I said was efficient. I went home feeling as though I had let God down. She and I kept in touch, and when she said she had gotten out of the bad situations and accepted Christ as Savior, I knew He had had a plan in this. We don't always know the outcome of a situation, but we must be obedient to God's calling anyway. I am so thankful that this girl found peace and became a child of God. I know it was nothing I did or said, but the Holy Spirit working in me. It is so wonderful to know that God would use me in such an awesome way. I look forward to being used for His service in the future! Please pray for my friend.

I'm so proud of you. When you allow God to use you He will do great things. Is she coming abck to PCC? If she is I would encourage you to start discipling her.
