"Food for thought" from my class work
So I thought I would share very briefly about what I am learning in my classes. Everyday for 3 hours we listen to speakers, on different subjects. Our first speaker Don Price spoke about "The Father Heart of God" which I had never heard phrased that way, but here are few ideas to think about....
What is true freedom??
-The ability to do that whay you know is right. An integration of your inner life with your outer life.
A Definition for Humility- A willingness to be known for who you really are. A yielded will. "God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble." James 4:6, 1 Peter 5:5, and Proverbs 3:34.
Here is a basic concept that really hit home with me....
That God sees us as being just as valuable as Jesus.
Finally I will leave you with a quote that our speaker gave us:
"Listening is so close to loving that it's hard to tell the difference." -David Ausburg
I know this seems like very random thoughts, but these are definetly some ideas that have stuck out in my mind. I thought they might mean something to some of you, and if not, know that they mean something to me.

Sounds like it is a great experience. If I was only 30 years younger. Be safe and have fun. Love your Aunt Holly.
Seren- my heart wells up with all kids of feelings when I read of your adventures. The experiences you're having are incredible! Pro soccer teams / church fainting / 2 min showers / playing with sick African children, in Africa no less! These are the experiences that one has when they're ALIVE. What's the quote: We're never more truly alive than when we're recklessly trusting/following God? Your living inspires me and rekindles my life. I'm praying for you, and you're prayed for by dozens who love you. Further up and further in!
