Those that live in America are extremely blessed! We have freedom of speech and freedom of religion, amazing! God is so good! I just read a book about a guy who was imprisoned in Iran for 9 weeks. Not only did the book get me stoked to fall in love with Jesus so much that it doesn't matter if I get imprisoned or not, but it got me deeply thankful for the amazing blessing that we have in simple things like being able to talk about our relationship with God anywhere in America!
God also asked me to fast from speaking for 5 hours today. It was the hardest fast I've ever done! If anyone knows me in person, they know that I like to talk about Jesus a lot! Cause He's so awesome! The crazy thing is that when you're trying not to talk, God teaches you even more about himself! And the more you learn the more you want to tell people! And then God just creates this hunger inside you to tell the whole world about him! Oh GOD! TO PROCLAIM THE WONDERS OF YOUR HOLY NAME!
It seems that only once we have our freedoms taken away are we truly able to enjoy the fullness of them. Thank God that we EVER get to talk about how awesome He is.
Hey Nate that's awesome! I don't know if I could stand going for 5 hours of not talking. But then sometimes I think I talk to much.
ReplyDeleteHaha yeah its pretty crazy! It definitely gets you closer to God because you can hear His all the more clearly!
ReplyDeleteHey Nate!!!
ReplyDeleteYou have no idea how much of an impact you left on me! You really showed me the joys of Jesus! He is so awesome! It's so amazing this feeling I have, Like a relationship with Him, It's just so hard to explain, but It's so awesome! Oh God is so good! I really cant wait to see you some time! School is almost out and I'm trying to do as much for the kingdom of God this summer. Its gonna be a blast. I hope your having a great time, and I know you are cause your telling people about Jesus! So awesome, and I cant wait to do what your doing! I love you brother! Jesus Loves you! And God Bless you and the people you talk too!
Love, Seth Urquhart
