Emmanuel!

God is with us!

I could go at length what this means to me, but I'd rather be succinct at the moment. You'll get a lengthy post from me in about 6 days when I do my usual year in review (which will almost certainly include the lyrics to the song "New Year's Eve" by Five Iron Frenzy).

God is with us. God is with me. God is with you.

These past 5 months and 2 days I've worked in ministry. Crazy. I love every student at CCF, despite what my actions and appearance MAY sometimes indicate. Perception, unfortunately, is reality. I have no idea what I want to do with the rest of my life - but I'd be content with ministry.

My biggest obstacle is myself - but that doesn't matter, because Emmanuel.


Emmanuel. "GOD IS WITH US!"

I'll keep leading small groups. I'll keep running A/V. I'll keep making powerpoints. I'll keep praying my butt off at the Well. I'll keep talking to students about their lives. I'll keep trying to cook things. I'll keep using the paper cutter that is "of the devil." I love you guys, and most of you may not ever read this.


Emmanuel.
Emmanuel.
Emmanuel!
