All done now

I just took my very last High School test EVER!!!!
Ahhh I don't know how well I did on it, but that is not the point. I'm done. Well just about. I have a quiz next block but we don't even have our books to study anything so it will be a joke...and I have to make a poster for Monday's in-house day. Ahh.
So close.
On a more serious note, all year I have thought about leaving High School. This is my last year to be with these people. My last chance to tell them about Christ and show them that they need Him. I am a chicken and I do not share with people nearly as much as I should...The past couple weeks have been really difficult. I know that God has given me opportunities-very specific ones-and I have been struggling because I know it is what I need to do, but it is so hard. I am praying and getting into God's word. Paul says in I Corinthians 2 that even HE was not confident in himself as he shared the gospel. He said he did not come with big words and fancy concepts so that the people's faith would be in God's power and not in his words. This passage encourages me so much to talk with those around me, especially those that I know God has specifically told me to talk to. I have a sort of 'list' and I have a few more to go...I have to plant the seeds; God will choose what to do with them after that. These people may not make decisions to follow Christ right now, but what we talk about will force them to think about life and life after death.
That is the only thing keeping me from staying home. These last few days that I have here will be great opportunities to share with others. I just have to obey God and do it!

Be an Ezekiel...look at him as an example. God told him to share the gospel, if he didn't he would be held accountable for their blood...the same goes for us. If we fail to share the gospel we will be called to answer for why we were so scared.
Rely on the strength God provides, not yours.
