Tonight, we learned about what it means to be baptized in the Holy Spirit, basically it's to encounter God in some way that prepares you for ministry. I asked God that He would show up and He did! There were things I needed to confess beforehand, but really the main thing was me giving up the control of my career. If you know me, you know that all I've wanted to do for the longest time is be a chiropractor, so I can make lots of money and do missions....but I feel God pointing me to some other ministry. I began praying for God's spirit to show up and for whatever reason I was crying and I felt a huge weight on me, I realized in my head I was thinking that I had been counting the cost, but in my heart I hadn't. I never really in my heart had given it to God and it was because I was believing a lie that God's plan was somehow not going to be good, by the end of my prayer, my crying turned to laughing because I realized how Great and Good God's plan is! I might have to give up my career, relationships with friends, family, or the pursuit of a wife but in the end, God's way will always be greater. I can't wait to see what God will do in Wyoming.
