Man, what an amazing day it has been so far. Incredible workout for Chest and Triceps at the gym. Then I came home to have twice-as-incredible Scripture Workout with the Lord, Himself. He has shown me some cool things through the book of Romans thus far. Most of all, I've realized a greater amount of the need for Jesus than I ever have. Paul says in Romans 4:14-15, that "For if those who are of the law are heirs, faith is made void and the promise made of no effect, because the law brings about wrath; For where there is no law, there is no transgression."
First of all I realize this is deep, but Jesus actually showed up and taught me some things. I'm so glad God gave us the Old Testament to show us our need for Christ. Without Him, I am really nothing.
Paul went on to talk about Abraham living out his faith by believing FULLY that God could do the impossible by letting Sarah have a child at their age. God showed me through that, that even though I feel dumb when I think about all these tough classes I'm going to have to take to become a doctor, if I really believe that He is worthy to follow, He can make this all work out if it is according to His will (ignore the run-ons).
How awesome it is to have yet another reminder of His love and grace and mercy He is constantly filling me with!
--Praying for one of my best buddies, Shane Kelley, as he's toughing it out in Highway Patrol school.
--that God will soon show me if He wants me to pursue a relationship with this girl or not..
--Above all, though, that Jesus through the Holy Spirit, would lead someone to Him by using me today.
