I FOUND Him

Most of you that just read that top head line are thinking that I am talking about my Prince...Well, I *think* I have found my Prince but that is for another blog. I have found Jesus..I know, I know..Some of you I can see the confused look on your face but it's not like that. I have known Jesus for 12 years now but I am talking about his Love for ME!! It's a new love...a love that I have often found myself trying to find it in other people. It's a sacrificial love. (I have been using that word a lot to describe love, lately) Here's a little story I'm going to tell you.

I attend a young adult group on Monday nights called SOMA (which means body of Christ). We meet every Monday night at 7pm. It's about 300-400 young adults (18-30) that attend this worship night. Well, the young adult pastor there, Sammy (who by the way if your not reading his blogs I highly recommend them. GOOD STUFF!!) was talking about Bachloer and Bachlorette series. It was one of my favorite sermons he has done. When I was sitting there next to my good friend Andrea, excited that we were in a new building and we were going to get Chick-Fil A that night :), I was sitting there thinking.."Oh,great!! Here we go talking about how God made someone special for us..blah blah blah. See being Single and hearing a lot and I mean A LOT of sermons on being single and Love are pretty much repetiative. I was anxious this night though because I had a feeling that Sammy's sermon might be a little bit different. Boy was I right!! His blew every other sermon out of the water. It really hit home for me. I just remember sitting there and thinking about everything that he had said. Just letting it soak in. It sure did soak in. I remember leaving and discussing with Andrea and Craig about the sermon. When I got home I just cried because it was so close to my heart. I have linked the sermons so you can hear them yourself. They are very powerful!! I wish I could just go more in depth about this discover right now but it will have to wait for another blog entry, because I am unfortunately writing this on my lunch break. I just can't contain the joy, happieness and love that I have in my heart right now!!!
