On last Sunday night we were invited to a special service at the First Assembly of God church by some of the local friends that we'd made. Some people we'd met were leading worship that night and it was a joint youth and adults praise night. It was an awesome night of worship.
Just the chance to be there was great. I honestly didn't really want to go. I was tired of hanging out with people but I went in just wanting to worship God. That's exactly what I got to do and it was awesome. I was able to just be there, uninhibited and lift up praise to God.
That night was a commissioning night for the new leaders in the church and so as the pastor was praying over the new leaders, I was like God, this is the prayer for our team. Let us just be a team that will love you, a team that just wants to seek your face, and a team devoted to you. At the end of the service, the pastor called up all the young adults and youth in the congregation and prayed over us as well, empowering us the to be the generation that rises and leads. It was a special night to say the least.
I was so excited that night and so joyful. But so quickly after coming back to "project stuff", I was brought back to earth. And even though emotions come and go, I know God is faithful.
