Hey guys.I hope that your week has begun well. For me, this is a very defining season for me. My four years in campus are finally coming to an end. It has been quite an interesting journey, full of ups and downs. As we like to say it in SALT(our university fellowship): It's been real!It's been fun! It's been Jesus!!!! 
However, this final year has really taken a toll on me. Things didn't quite turn out the way I would have wanted them to. At the end of the day, God's plan comes to pass. As Paul said in Romans 8:28,"And we know that in  all things God works for the good those who love Him,who have been called according to His purpose."(NIV) Therefore I know that all my experiences have been ordered by Him, the very one who fashioned me in His own image. Today I was feeling quite low and somehow disillusioned, simply because some things weren't working out as I expected, but then a song came to mind and my spirit was uplifted. As most people know, I have a strong passion for music. A group that has been a great blessing to my life is the Gaither Vocal Band. The following  words are from one of their songs. 

There is no problem so big that God cannot solve it,
There is no mountain so tall that He cannot move it,
There is no storm so dark that God cannot calm it,
There is no sorrow so deep that He cannot sooth it.
If He carried the weight of the world upon His shoulders,
I know my brother that Jesus will carry you.
If He carried the weight of the world upon His shoulders,
I know my brother that Jesus will carry you.
I know my brother, I know my sister, that JESUS will carry you.




Find comfort and encouragement in these truths.


Hebrews 13:5-6
"Keep your lives free form the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said,
                "Never will I leave you; 
                  never will I forsake you."
So we say with confidence,
               "The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. 
                What can man do to me?"


 Be blessed my friend. Rest in the everlasting arms of the Lord.
