DAY 3: Prison Break

So the guys and I not only have started on a spiritual journey together, we have begun another journey as well. That journey is the show Prison Break. It was brought on by Kansas and I am officially addicted. It has become our reward for all the homework we get done. Today, I read five chapters in my book! If you don't know anything about me, I hate reading. So that was huge. This book is blowing my mind. The Gospel is something that is glorious and beautiful and it feels like I'm really experiencing it for the first time.

This new found love for reading and God has quelled my anxiousness for the most part. Today, in class, we studied liturgical prayer and I loved it. I can't wait to study Christian icons and liturgy. There is so much history behind what I believe and I want to know as much as I can. My struggles continue to try to rear their head though. The devil is trying his best to hit me as hard has he possibly can. Prayer is welcome!

There were definitely a couple ways in which God got victory today. 1) I went to the Apple store to see how much it would be to fix my iPhone and they fixed the back completely for free! It was such a financial blessing. 2) For the first time, God used me to bring healing to someone. It was a simple act of faith that paid off! Josh (my best friend and roommate) was complaining of leg pain all day (most likely from skateboarding last night), and I got the guys together to lay hands on it and prayed for it to be healed. He stood up to walk and immediately felt no more pain! It was an incredible experience. I hope God uses me for that more often. He is doing a great work in the dudes around me. I can't wait to see how else he manifests in my life and the life of these dudes.

Prayer and Donations welcome. Thank you for reading.
