1 Corinthians 1:3 Grace be unto you, and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ... I am very comforted to be reminded of the fact that God gives peace like nobody else can...  I know as for me this past weekend I needed some comfort and peace and sunday night I had received both at the exact same time, it was an amazing feeling. Saturday night, I had the worst headache, I was feeling, drowsy and yes, I missed home. To top that all off my neck hurt like crazy and I felt like Satan was trying to drown me in doubt. I had thoughts of is this really where God wants me, am I gonna make it to the other side. last night I started working on a song and the first part of the chorus became part of my prayer. God, help me/ Lord, I'm askin You please/ to send me a star. then I added to show me that this really is Your will and You will get me through this...  Then Sunday came, the day was kinda rough, my neck made some things a bit difficult but it was easier then saturday.  Made it through the morning service but my neck started hurting a little bit more so I stayed back at the apartments not wanting be any kind of burden during the sunday night service,  and as the sun was starting to go down I noticed that it was getting a little bit cloudy. But, I sat out side and started listening to music and then I felt as though God was telling me to look up, so I did.  I lifted my head about as far as I could lift it and sure enough there was a star, not just one star but two stars. One was shinning brighter then the other and then I remembered my prayer. It was an amazing Me and God moment. I was filled with peace and comfort and now I know with out a shadow of a doubt that God has sent me here and He will get me to the other side. Application: Write a message on Matthew 14:22-36 by Friday so in the future when I start to do doubt I have one more thing to remind me that God will get me through it.

The road has been set before me/ the dusty path,that so far has been worth taking/ embracing culture, and befriending all along the way/ worship, praying, laughing, working/ hand in hand even though we don't speak the same language/ God is amazing, ( with a lack of words to describe and say)/ one step at a time, walking with God/ this journey with out Him would be impossible/ not in Flesh but rather in the Spirit, Keeping my eyes on the Cross and staying under the shadowa of His wings/ In constant communion/ always in rememberance/ Of what God has done for me/ I hope to never forget/ so I don't live my life in regrets/ but I prosper in the name of Christ/ for the rest of my life....
