Hey all! i just got back from my West Virginia mission trip with my church today! IT WAS AMAZING!!! and let me tell u I was sooo very skeptical about going and it having any effect on me but honestly..it has impacted me SO MUCH!!! I feel so great!!!! Words cant even begin to explain how I felt wednesday!!! It was incredible!! This is my new favorite verse!!!
*** "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understandingin all your own ways, aknowledge him and he will make your path straight." Proverbs chapter 3 verses 5 through 6***
That verse alone made me cry!!!! and many who read this might not understand and feel the way i did a week ago: "yeah whatever! people like that are such phonys!" but i guess unless you experience it yourself you never fully understand the love some people have for god! I know i certainly didnt! The majority of my life i never felt superly close to god. I went to church and sunday school but i always never felt that close to him the way some of my friends did! But now i get it! And to some it may sound ridiculous, and thats ok. Im not trying to sound phony and righteous at all cuz im not! Im just writing about my own thoughts and experiences! and whether you agree with them or not is perfectly fine! But i just have to say that i never have felt this before!!
