I am the bread of life
Dear friends and fellow brothers and sisters in Christ,
I write this post in Seattle, about an hour before my competition starts, and I just want to testify to the Lord's goodness and love in my life.
As i was having a relaxing breakfast in the hotel before case competition, one of my teammates pointed to a guy by the window, sitting by the counter, and said "isn't that guy reading a bible?" and I looked, and said, "yes he is.."
And that conversation led me to think, wow, this guy is meeting Jesus! That is what will really fill him to overflowing, to bring him peace that man cannot give, bread come down from heaven. (and i looked down at my measly but rather tasty blueberry and cheese bagel)
Also, i had thought that my team was drawn to begin the case at 1025, i.e. right after breakfast. However, it turned out that we were only starting at 1120. That meant that I had time to do QT! Once again, as so many times before, God is more faithful to MY prayer time than I am!
I returned to my room, and plugged on my headphones, and worshipped with a song, before using www.wau.org to do my readings for the day.
John 6:44 says "No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him."
"Dear Lord, Thank you for your great love, faithfulness and peace that you bring to my life. I know that You are YAHWEH, the true God yesterday, today and forever. I worship You, bow down and call You Lord of my life.
I echo the psalmist in exalting, Praise our God O peoples, let the sound of his praise be heard, he has preserved our lives and prevented our feet from slipping. Come and listen, all you who fear God; let me tell you what he has done for me. I cried out to him with my mouth; his praise was on my tongue. Praise be to God who has not rejected my prayer, or withheld his love from me! - Ps 66
