September 17, 2010 it has been a week that I've been in Israel. Its weird how slow or quickly time has gone by. I can honestly say there are times when it feels like minutes are like hours and its driving me insane, but then on the other hand it feels like hours are just mere minutes. I think this feeling is coming from the fact that in my heart I do and do not want to be here... I know that sounds crazy but its something in me. I know God brought me here (not really sure why, but since when are we ever truly sure.) to use me in some way or to grow me. While I was typing that last sentence I see that it is both. But i still can't seem to shake off this feeling of two opposites raging inside of me. Well that is just a little bit of whats going through my head this past week.
Class:
Joel went over a descent amount of stuff today, everything from Jesus' childhood to the baptism of Jesus. It was a busy day for my mind i had a lot of questions pop in and out of my mind. Truths about God truths about us and everything in between. For example one of them was God is not fair... Because if God was a fair God we would all be dead, another one is at this exact moment in our time we are worshiping God in heaven (crazy i know)!
So this evening has been really interesting I had an opportunity to sit in on a yom kippur messianic service. It was very insightful. But after is what blew me away was Ramsey, me, Nathan(some British guy), and Doug where talking about how the gifts of the spirit are for today's age not just for them back in the day.
I have a lot of homework to do now and some researching for class tomorrow... i have to figure out if the Locust that John the Baptist eat where plants called that for the really grasshopper things.
Please pray for me i need it and the other students here as well, and please pray that i get this report done so i can go to bed! NIGHT
