My mind is being blown up... PT 1

So... my mind is being blown up. :)

What do you mean by this you may ask me?

I have had my first week of Bethel and today started week 2. It has been MORE then amazing to see the way that God has provided in amazing amazing ways.

One story from the trip down to California.....

So the boarding crossing at times can be a bit tricky. Because of the nature of this school they used to give people a hard time getting across. As well, we were told if you don't have the money to go to school in full they can be harsh about that and not let people cross. I had this all in the back of mind because I was worried.... :)

So we get to the border crossing and it went SO smoothly. Beyond smoothly.

1) The border cross remember my Dad because of his trips that he had in recent years. He actually in fact can speak Spanish.

2) When I get into the office he begins to explain to me (as he looked at my passport) that I am american citzen. That even though I don't have my passport. That I can apply for a social security and WORK in the states. WOW.... That was such a huge blessing to do know that. There have been tons of rumour and misunderstand of how this whole dual citzenship thing works. But when you have the border guy telling you this. It gave me a real isurance. All this to say... he didn't even LOOK at my finances. Haha. That was something I was a little worried about because I didn't have the complete amount that was in the paper.

Praise the Lord. This was just a huge continuation of God goodness to me. (and us)

hehe.

Hmmm.....Now being at Bethel... Where do I begin....

I feel like I have so much to share with you guys but no idea how to start. So I will start with one story that deeply has changed my life.

*Did you know the God loves you! He really does, everyone. HE LOVES YOU.

And that when we insult ourselves or look down upon ourselves or other we actually insult the work of God. If we are created in his image be it christian or pre-chrisitan.

*That if you don't love people you probably don't love yourself.

* That we as christian are supposed to call out the greatness in peoples lives. Regardless of thier state or they are going to become a convert. But we must really learn to love people regardless of them coming into agreement with our ideas.

* That you are amazing. YOU were created to be amazing. You are and anything less then that is a lie. We have the holy spirit living inside of us and because of that we have LIFE. The devil/creation/God KNOWS that fact about you. (Being amazing) But we are ones who don't know what we are.

*Humility is not thinking of yourself as less. But remembering where greatness comes from. We are thinking more of GOD.

* (Something to Ponder) " You become what you see you are "

" Your not what you think you are

Your not what other people think you are

You become what the most important person in your life thinks you are"

(Now think about that......

Now think about that in relationship to God being most important.... MIND BLOWING)

So I leave you with those mind blowing statements. I hope they speak to you (as I try to write franticly in my notes... I hope that the message crossed over. ) If you have questions or anything you want to ask or say... PLEASE post.

MUCH love to you all. I will post when I get some more time....

Dennnnnise.
