I got this sweet word from God today.
Today at chapel we had a guest speaker that does church planting. So after, during lunch you could eat lunch and talk to some of the church planters that came. I feel my heart being pulled towards church planting a lot...I don't know if that means in the near future or later on in my life, but I see that in God's plan for my life. So I asked all my friends to go with me cause I didn't want to go by myself...me feeling uncomfortable by myself...even though I really felt like I needed to go. I asked Rich, Joel, Drew, Bre, Alexa, Chels. no one wanted to go. so I was like sweet whatever I guess I will go by myself (not a big deal at all...i made it a big deal)
SO...anyway it was really cool. Got some sweet insight. Most the guys have a vision but don't really know what the next step is. They are just waiting around until God tells them what to do next. It's really cool to hear and see grown men just up and quit their jobs and move to a different state because they felt like God wanted them to plant a church. no job there, no friends, nothing.. yet they listened. (Kinda what you are doing Jill..mmm) I was walking back to my dorm thinking man that is cool. I wish my friends could have heard that or at least be interested in it...and He spoke ever so quiet...Almost a clear voice maybe it was in my head who knows. BUT!...he goes, Hannah stop waiting around for everyone else. Just Go.. wow..like I needed that to hit my face hard. I keep on waiting around for people, hoping I can pull them along and get something out of it, but that can pull me down most times. I just gotta go hard and fast after God's plan or i'm gonna miss it.. I'm going to miss the sweet opportunities He has planned for my life. They may not be comfortable all the time or what I exactly want to do, but I can't keep waiting around till someone can do it with me, I just have to go.
I don't know what that will look like in the future exactly but I know I have to be independent from my friends who are not following after God's plan. I hope most will follow me or come right along side of me, but I cant wait for them to...i just gotta GO!
ONE WEEK! I GET TO SEE YOU JILL & KATE in the same room !!!!!!!
