Terry Peak

tonight was the greatest night ever here at college. God is so awesome!!!! At 6 o'clock i left for terry peak in mikes car with jackie following close behind us. it was cool to ride with mike because i learned more about him and we listened to some good music. he has good tastes. anyways, i learned that mike grew up in California until his parents got divorced then he moved to Casper Wyoming with his father because his grandparent live there so his dad wanted to be near them. i learned a few other things also.

when we got to the condo we ate and played games then jack, the leader, brought us all into a circle and said a persons name and people were to say encouraging things about them. that was awesome it took over 2 hours to get through everyone because there was so much to say. the was so encouraging to hear what other people saw in other people. it just really showed me how encouraging everyone can be and that they see something in you that you cant see in yourself. just a total thing from God to do that tonight. Some things said about me was that i am like the glue in CV always going and supporting it. also erin just told me how much of answer to prayer i was to her, not being a partier and how awesome our late night talks on the bunk are. how much they mean to her. i totally feel the same way about her too. mike and bri said that it is cool that i look at the little things in life, like on the way there i was talking to mike and i just said how beautiful it is to see the canyon at night when the moon is shining through the trees and glowing on the snow. how could some one deny God when they see that. i was just so encouraged by everyone and all the great things we had to say to eachother. I hope God just keeps us all together even when we get busy with work and school.

during that we called shelli and chris because they both werent able to go. shelli had a track meet and chris had to work. so we called them and just told them how much of a blessing they are to us and so on... like we had there in the group. it so lifted up their day. both were really wishing they were able to go and stressed out because of finals week.

after that we hung out in little groups, some people went swiming and some of us, me, just sat around and talked with the other people. i learned that Bri and Skye both went to Lone Tree Bible Ranch the same year that i did. Bri worked there. That is the place I met jon and it was one of the greatest times of my life.

Then we came together again and sang a bunch of worship songs. to see God's power and majesty there in that room was amazing. How we were all praising the same one and only true God. Our voices brought together. i cant explain to you how cool it was and encouraging to have a group together that strong in God and seeking after Him. I just cant explain.

It was a great night all in all. one of the best i have ever had in a long time. the friendships and hearts for God that these kids have is awesome. Seek God with all your heart mind and soul!
