A Time to Trust

So, the second post for the night. I always feel like my motivation for blogging goes in spurts. Anyway. Tonight was my last real bible study with 3:11. We still have two weeks to go, but one is a "surprise" night that Phil (one of our leaders) ruined, and the last one is our Christmas party. Sidenote: the surprise is going to Edinburgh to go to their Christmas, German market and get mulled wine and other very Christmasy things. I'm hoping to get in a little ice-skating as well. Back to the story though, this was our last real study. After us girls had finished, Ros had everyone gather around Ashten and I and pray for us, as we are both leaving at the end of the semester. It was such a blessing. Yes, I have to leave these beautiful people that I have just started to get to love. But all of us huddled together, sniffing and crying quietly (or in Mari's case, not so quietly), talking to an Almighty God, that is the way to go. I hate that I have to leave. But more than that, I am so blessed to have been able to come. My friend Cath read out a verse for Ashten and I tonight. Above all, I am thankful and overwhelmed by this God. 

"The LORD bless you and keep you; the LORD make his face shine upon you and be gracious to you; the LORD turn his face toward you and give you peace."

Numbers 6:24-26
