So I must say, God knows me so very well! It's so true that you cannot follow the leading of the Holy Spirit and NOT be happy! I mean, I know the winter has yet to come but still. Oh my freaking gosh! This place is amazing! We have been working a lot today on preparation for the school (which i have some cool stuff to say about) and after so many hours of being cooped up inside, we decided to go for a walk to the lake. Can you say absolutely GORGEOUS! Finland is such a beautiful country. The lake reminded me a lot of home in PA. It felt so nice. The air here is probably the best air I've every breathed in my life! If I could somehow get my air from here and take it home with me, I so would. It's so clean feeling and the smells are just amazing! I have been in such awe of nature here. I've been noticing the Glory of God through His creation of this county. God ya did good thats all I have to say. Seriously, next summer you should take your vacation to Finland. Not Helsinki or city places, but get out into the forest. It's breathtaking!
Well now that I have convinced you all that Finland needs to be on your places to visit list, let me tell you something cool that happened today. Well I must say, God is seriously the coolest EVER! I mean, think about it, He's the God of the universe, who created Finland I might add, and He likes to talk to ME!!! Um, yes please. Today we spent the morning praying for the students in the school. We asked God for encouragement and what He wants to do in them during their time in the school. As we started praying for one of the students God immediately told me that He wanted to show this student more of His Father's heart. At first I was like, wow how typical and I somewhat dismissed it. So I kept listening for something else and got a scripture. It didnt completely go with what I had heard previously but for some reason the Father's heart just kept nagging at me. It wouldnt leave my mind. So I told Mary and Mirjami what I had heard and they asked me if I knew anything about this students backround. I said no, and they went on to tell me that he doesnt have a good relationship with his father but he is in the process of healing from that. WOW WOW WOW! Seriously, hearing from God is such a privilege that I do not take for granted one bit! I LOVE hearing from Him. I LOVE when He speaks. It's always so good. I love Him SOOOOO much!!
Ok well I'm gonna go talk to Him now. I'm so in love with Him!
just beautiful!! I am loving all of your updates!
