Hey everyone!
Today was a GREAT day! I woke up at noon (first great thing that happened). I didn't really do much until I left for church at 3:30. Let me just say..... it is FREEZING here. It has been in the mid 20's all day. That is fine. Not too bad. It's the wind! Oh my gosh! The wind chill all day was 10 - 15 degrees. I thought I was gonna die. Haha. But anyways, I went to church with my friend Hallie again. We went to Hillsong again this week but we got there early so we could get seats instead of having to stand the entire time.
The preacher that usually preaches (the one that was there last week and I cannot remember his name for the life of me. haha.) wasn't there but they had a guest speaker from Houston, Texas. His name is John Gray. He is the pastor at Lakewood Church in Houston. He is amazing. Phenomal. Brilliant. All of those great words. When he first came out, the band was still playing and he just started singing. It was great. He kind of reminds me of Ruben Studdard(?), I think that's his name, who won the 2nd season of American Idol. Anyways, he's a big black guy and he's hilarious and such a powerful speaker! Here are a few of his quotes from the evening:
"Out of the 66 books of the bible, they all come down to 2 subjects: relationships and real estate."
"God speaks in the language of solutions."
"Dominion was not a suggestion for Adam. It was a command."
"We are not humans having a spiritual experience, we are spirits having a human experience."
"When you know who you are, heaven responds and hell bows down."
"You don't go to hell for what you do. You go to hell for what you believe in."
"God wants your worship voluntarily."
"God created choice. Man created evil."
"Wait and do it God's way."
"I'm loved and there's nothing hell can do about it."
That is just a small fraction of the amazing things he said tonight. Google him people! John Gray. He is an amazing pastor. If anyone from Whitesburg is reading this right now, get him as a guest pastor. He is amazing.
Also, just learned that his daughter was admitted to the hospital a couple of hours ago with a 105.5 fever. Pray!
On a different note, I have 3 and 1/2 sleeps until I get to go home! Woohoo! Please pray that the weather is good! I can't wait to see my family!
Thanks!
Molly
