so tonight was amazing! i am just in my room, normal as all, when i hear a call for me to come down to the front door. i go down to the front door to find one of the girls from the town (she is like 14) just weeping out our front door. i stand there as she is crying and telling me how her boyfriend doesn't want to be with her and she loves him and how she doesn't want to be here anymore.
so, i feel so awful for her, but what can I do. so i'm just standing there hugging her, feeling completely unprepared to deal with this situation... and then am like God you just have to take control of this. We get her calmed down and she comes in and asks for some water. Her friends had gotten her all loaded on a bottle of wine (she is a tiny girl!). so she walks into our living room and we sit there and have a really good conversation about God and who he is and how he loves her. She tells us how glad she is that we are there because no one listen to her and she just really loves this boy. She also tells us how she is wanting to love this boy. I start to tell her how God loves her so much and how he loves her more than she even loves this boy. she looks me dead in the eye and says "i think i want to go out with God... do you go out with God? i want to go out with God" i was like "yeah all you have to do is tell him what you are feeling and ask him out" she is like " i want to go out with God"
so i ask her if i can pray for her and what she wants to pray about. she says she wants to pray that she gets over lee and that they can talk and for us to be successful because we are nice people. we spend sometime praying for her and asking for healing and for God to just really show up in her life... then this girl prays for us! it was sooo amazing and wonderful and satisfying! God is so awesome!!
then this girl promptly asks to go outside so she can be sick and I got the honor of holding back this girls hair while she was sick out our front door! it was an awesome night! then we walked this girl home and chatted with her parents briefly and headed home! we spent some more time praying for her when we got home and now i am just sooo excited! God things are going to start happening in this girls life and i am sooo excited!!
good times!
