CC Oceanside J.H. Winter Retreat









Last weekend was such a blessed time. The Lord allowed for some of us from the college to go out and help out at the Calvary Chapel Oceanside Junior High Winter Retreat. It was so great, the Lord was definitely just empowering His kids; it was a blessing to see. He rained down the Holy Spirit and blessed us also by raining down a foot of sparkling in the full moon frosted water while we were there. It was an amazing weekened being reminded of how He is not contained into a certain order or program of working. I was able to share twice and in both of the teaching God was just hitting me so much of how He works outside the box. Some times we have to put our traditions and pre-concieved notions down, and just let His Holy Spirit do His awesome beautiful work. We can't be so ignorant to think we have the way God always want to work figured out, "Who can search the mind of God?" We are not to be so caught up in trying to figure out how He does things and why. We are not always called to understand, but just believe. We are to just to be men and women chasing after His own heart. That's all that matters. Loving Him is to be our priority, letting Him change us into His image, and submitting to His will so HIs wonderful plans can be brought forward. Pr 16:1 ¶ The preparations of the heart belong to man, But the answer of the tongue is from the LORD.
