Day 10

            WOW! I can't believe I have made it to Day 10! This is the longest I have ever had a New Year's Resolution last I think! 
             Today was the first day that I actually prayed for someone out loud and in public.  That in and of itself is pretty amazing.  I did kind of drag her into the corner of the cafeteria at school though so we could pray instead of doing it in the open. LOL It's my inner chicken! Buack buack buack, Buack Buack, Buack!
              A couple of days ago I prayed for a girl over the phone and her back pain was better.  I ran into her in the school cafeteria this afternoon.  I know it was a God set up because I should've been in class at that time but the professor let us out early and I had some time to kill so I thought I'd grab a bite to eat.  I asked her how her back was and she said that she still had quite a bit of pain in her low back muscles.  So I asked her if we could pray here; she agreed.  So we went over in a corner that was less conspicuous.  We began to pray, and pray, and pray.  Nothing happened, it didn't get any better.  I felt my had get really warm, but she didn't feel a thing and the pain was still there.  I am going to be honest, I was just a little bummed.  So we left the cafeteria and talked about God and I shared some of the things in my life that have led me to where I am in my own personal walk.  Even though she didn't feel relief from the pain right at that moment, I am in full belief that God touched her this afternoon and I am believing that she will wake up pain free in the morning, in Jesus' Name!  I know that God is a big God and His desire is to see us living whole and healthy lives all the time!
              I am so grateful for all that He is teaching me in this process.  I am especially glad that I already learned not to take credit for people getting healed or I would undoubtedly be trying to figure out what I did wrong to cause her not to get healed.  Instead I know that I can trust God and that He is working on behalf of that young lady to bring some awesome things into her life :O)
