FIVE DAYS!!!

I am getting married in 5 days! FIVE DAYS!!!!!!! My prayer right now is that God turns up the heat and works in my heart to prepare me to be the helper that he has created me to be for my soon to be husband. I am going to be Megan Stafford...in 5 days. I can hardly believe it. Please pray for our marriage to just beam with glory for God. We know that is the purpose of our marriage. Sorry my thoughts seemed so scattered. I'm pretty stinkin stoked!

God's Rockin' Awesomeness!

I haven't been a Christ follower very long (about 3 years) but usually by now, even young Christians have lead someone to Christ. I mean, I have been a youth leader for almost as long as I have been saved, but the only times I have lead someone in the sinner's prayer was after someone else had done the leg work. I know some reading this may think..."You did do your part, someone else planted a seed and you helped it flower." But God has just been challenging me lately to share the gospel and salvation. So, last night during the service @ Student Ministry, God just starting working in my heart telling me what I was supposed to talk about during small groups. He showed me that I was supposed to define sin, explain what a life without Jesus was like, have some of my girls share their testimony. Then he lowered the boom and told me exactly WHO was going to get saved. I wanted to weep and I wanted to shout. It was the craziest feeling ever. Then on the way to small groups God told me that the girl that was going to get saved didn't have a Bible, so I picked up one on the way. So I got to small groups, made a little small talk and then God just starting doing his thing. I just stepped back and hid behind the cross for a while. It was SO amazing how he spoke so much truth through me--I was blown away. Then, he showed me to have the girls close their eyes and raise their hand if they wanted to accept Christ. Not only did the girl that he showed me accept him, but a girl from the school that I teach at that has been coming to church with me for the past few weeks also accepted Christ. When they opened their eyes I told them that a prayer doesn't save them, but the grace of Jesus and the desire in their heart to know him and accept him as the savior of their life does. So I lead them in the prayer. When we finished I looked at one of the girls and said, "You don't have a Bible, do you?" After she had told me two weeks ago that she did. She looked at me with big puppy dog eyes and shook her head. It was the most AWESOME spiritual experience I have ever had in my ENTIRE! life. For the first time ever, God allowed me to lead two people to Christ. WOW! Pray for those girls. Pray that God would teach them who he is and that they would learn how to be true disciples of Jesus. Pray that because of their lives, others would be saved. God rocks my world! Has he rocked yours lately? Tell me about it! I love to hear about God's rocking awesomeness!
