Here I sit in my makeshift room for the night, reflecting on the past two years of my life spent in North Bay, and what God is about to take me through in moving to Montreal. You see I had to be out of my apartment by today, but I'm not leaving till tomorrow. So I'm a little lost in transition, but it is good because it is giving me time to reflect.
God has been on the move in my life. Last Summer He took me to Calgary, which I thought was just about making good money. However, it was there that I fell in love with God in a new/deeper/passionate way. Last Fall, when I returned home I felt a little scared that the passion would die, but it didn't. God took me through a beautifully intense LAST year at Nipissing. This year I pursued the arts with a deeper intensity and really found the rare beauty of creativity. Also, this year I found friendships that physically hurt my heart to leave. I experienced community, love, and God through these people. And lastly, through school I was exposed to the relentless ideology of my social welfare courses, which have forever ruined the way I see the world. (In a good way). All this and more has shaped this year into one of my greatest, but not because of these things alone. If it were up to great experience or happy moments the point would be lost. The greatness lies in the fact that I know God today more than I ever have before, and I wouldn't trade that for anything. Him and I are close, and Montreal is just simply a responce to the RELATIONSHIP I have with Him.
So here I go, please pray for me. I really need it!
