Unspeakable Joy Part 1

God is something else! Today, the Lord has just been moving on my heart in so many ways. Many of which, I do not understand yet, but I trust that the Lord will reveal it to me later. Last night I went and learned more about fellowship at one of the two women's Bible studies that I am in. I had had a pretty rough day, so the condition of my heart was not that of going to Bible study...but gosh am I glad that I did. I find it so assuring to me that God knows my heart deeper and more intricately than any person in the entire universe! He knew I needed that fellowship and He was abundant in blessing me with intense and encouraging conversations.

I love being able to laugh, cry, learn and grow together with all of my sisters in Christ that God has brought into my life this year. It is so amazing that I trusted in the Lord to lead me to Georgetown College, and that He quickly placed all of these wonderful people who are just as hungry, if not more, to grow in their love and knowledge of the Lord. Yes, there have been those days where I don't see my joy in the day, and yes, I fall into the old slump I used to live in. BUT, God has been faithful (as always) in making sure someone is there to hold me accountable and to guard my heart and fill it with the hope and trust that He isn't finished with me yet. Once I saw myself slipping, I realized that "Katie...you need to see the joys God has brought to you today." Now that I am focusing on that, it seems that the Lord has opened my spiritual eyes to see the world more like He sees it. I also find that there are all these little things that give me this unspeakable joy that sets my heart on fire. All I can do is praise the Lord for the words I can't find for His gorgeous creation and simple treasures that I used to overlook!

Peace. Love. Faith
