+++++++++ Moving on to some thoughts ++++++++++++++

I started my summer Job well we are in training at the moment. This is a very fun experience at the moment getting to know everyone that I am going to be working with this summer. I am an intern at Capitol Hill Church of Christ along with some other cool cats.

Yesterday, I had a moment when things just clicked together. You know that minute when things you are learning in your personal time with God meets you and just clicks.  From the book I am reading, morning devotional, to small group that night.

I got to work early yesterday, not much early but enough to start working on reflective questions in Chapter 1 of Helping Hurts and the Initial Thoughts of Chapter 2. I did not completely finish before we circled up for devotion. Amanda was doing it and she gave us time to reflect on the Glory of God. 

I sat back down at my couch and worked on the questions again and when I was finished I read Exodus 21-22. These verses I highlighted because they jumped out at me. "But if the servant declares, ;I love my master and my wife and children and do not want to go free,' then his master must take him before the judges. He shall take him to the door or the doorpost and pierce his ear with an awl.  Then he will be his servant for life. " Exodus 21:5-6

I have always sang the song:

"Pierce my ear, O Lord my God.

        Take me to your door this day.

        For I will serve no other God.

        Lord I'm here to stay. 

     For you have paid the price for me;

        With Your blood you ransomed me.

        Now I will serve you eternally.

        Lord I'm here to stay."

It caught me by suprise to be sitting and reading then finding the verse that is the rule for Israelites. If they decide, choose to stay the master would pierce his ear. What else can say Glory to God. 

There is so much about the amazingness of the Glory of OUR God. IT is for US to decide if we want to get closer to see the Glory of God as the Holy Spirit reveals it to us. This is what I believe. God speaks to us through the Holy Spirit just as he spoke to the others. 

At small group, (very small group) we had time of fellowship sharing a meal that I am thankful for. We sat down for the devotion and we covered what they talked about last week. 

The question that is posed: How do you feel connected to God?

Now as you read I want you to think about this question too because I want you to leave your answer in the comment. I will give my answer later on. 

After we gave each other the answers, one that stood out to me was a girl who said condecsions that happen that aren't condecsions. I call it a "God thing"

The reason we talked about it was this summer we are going to read, Crazy Love by Francis Chan. We watched the Awe Factor.  Oh for anything to feel cared for and small to God.  For the fact that God cares about us being that small.  Go watch it, hit the link.  

When I feel connected to God when things just click, when you get that revelation you realize the world through another look. 

Now I want comments!!!!!!!!!! Post your way you feel connected to God??????
