I know I should be transcribing now. But Daddy just tossed me the book I asked him to buy off Doulos, Elizabeth Elliot's "Passion and Purity", and I curiously decided to flip through and see what it was all about...
And I haven't been able to stop crying since. Oh it's not like a soap opera or anything like that, and I haven't even read it seriously like every word and dwelled on it, but just flipping through like I did, God jumped out of the book every few pages and touched my heart so deeply, oh so deeply, I felt He was just speaking to my very heart again and again and again. I can see there is much to think and pray about there, many answers to questions I have been asking so far... and I can't wait for exams to be over so I can really concentrate on reading it and absorbing God's replies. :) It was just being answered so very directly through the words in the book that made me cry out of gladness, out of reassurance that God really is guiding us, directly and intimately.
Thank You for these tears, Lord. Thank You for this book. Thank You for the many people whom You have "conspired" with to bring me to this book, chief among them being Ade and Daddy (thank you to you two too. :P).
Thank You for Your love, without which how could humans ever feel alive? :)
Thank You God... for showing that You care. :')
(Going to transcribe now. What interesting ways God uses to wake one's mind up :P)
