I really feel like writing about this, it's been on my heart lately.
So, I have been getting to be really good friends with this awesome girl, Lisa. She's so cool! She just makes people wanna be around her. She writes music, she's hilarious, and she has the most awesome heart for God. I really feel that I can talk with her about many things spiritual and she wont' get tired of it. We were at BFCT (Beaver Falls Coffee and Tea Company), a coffee shop owned by my Humanities teacher. It's awesome, it's in the downstairs of his house so it is very cozy. I got a Banana Bread Latter, yummo! I love fall, it makes me feel cozy. Anyhow, I started talking with Lisa about how comforting it is that God is a sovereign God. I don't think the church she went to before really taught that. So, now that she is here it is kind of a new idea for her and she is loving it. I think it is so awesome to think that a God who controls the entire universe and is utterly perfect and complete decides to take care of his children! When I think about National Security and all of this hullabaloo about the economy and how crazy things can get, it really gives me a peace that passeth all understanding that God is in control of it! If God is for us, who can be against us? Not only is he in control of it, he has deemed everything! He does not live in time, mind blowing right??????
*Sigh*, I was just so excited I wanted to write about it.

Hi, Kate!!! So glad that you found Lisa. God is good! I remember when I first learned (as an adult) about His sovereignty and what peace and comfort that brought to me. It is mind blowing!!
Now you have me thinking of what a banana bread latte would taste like...
Hey Kate - You are Great!!
I love to say that! When I was young I did not learn any catechisms but my kids are memorizing the Shorter Catechism and #7 is great...What are the decrees of God? The decrees of God are his eternal pupose, according to the counsel of his will, whereby, for his own glory, he hath fore-ordaiend whatsoever comes to pass. Great Q & A regarding sovereignty. Glad you have made a good friend!
