Campus Challenge: Reflections
In a lot of ways, this weekend was something that gave me a lot of confirmation in the things I’ve been hearing from God. To be totally honest, I didn’t learn much from the whole conference. It was things that I’ve either already thought about, or heard. But it didn’t take away from the weekend one bit.
If you’ve been following my blog, I’ve been basically “mission”-ally focused since the new year. I’ve grown a lot with Christ, and through my interactions with Christ, God has really been putting a lot of things on my heart. And the biggest one has been evangelism, and campus ministries. Also, I was desperate to see people really understand what it means to know God. That includes all aspects of his triune-self.
This year, CC put a huge focus on ‘missions’ and it really just kick started this huge monstrous ball of passion that somehow came to a halting stop while I traveled back from China. It was nice to discover the passions of other fellowships, especially when it resounded so much with what God has been telling me. And I was encouraged to not slow down when the going gets tough, but persevere and keep running the race. To just live out my own passion and trust in God’s plans. But the confirmation of what God has been telling me, finally gave me the courage to just be more bold with my actions. To push for more changes, even though it may cause some people to feel uncomfortable.
To pray hard, and instill an active lifestyle to seek the heart of God; and I truly believe that it includes the thousands of lost sheep all around us that have yet to feel the love of God. It’s a shame I’m back in school, cause I know I’ll blog less often and with less clarity. But I’m looking forward to sharing the joy that I’ve found in Christ to anyone that asks.
