Contemplation

In light of my last post, I've been spending more time than usual simply contemplating the things God has done in my life recently. There's something special about the quietness in which you reflect on God's blessings...just sitting in a room by yourself, in a quiet place (not easily found in a girls' dormitory!), I like to sit next to a window...and just reflect. It's in those quiet moments that I can clear my head and let Him speak to me by bringing to mind all the amazing things He has done. By looking out the window I can praise Him for the creation He has made for us to enjoy. By looking around my room, I see all the textbooks and notepads that represent my education here at BBC. I also see pictures of friends, family, loved ones...all the incredible people He has brought into my life. I browse through my journals and read through the hard times and the good ones, seeing His hand in all of it.

Our God is amazing, isn't He? I encourage you to take some time today to quietly reflect and consider His amazing love and continuous work in your life.
