DNOW: Before

In a few hours, I will be heading off to West Rome to be a leader at DNOW this weekend. I've never lead a small group before, so I've kinda been freaking out the past couple of days, but I'm extremely excited. Six 11th grade girls and I are going to get to hang out this weekend and talk about Jesus.... and I think that's pretty fabulous!

The theme for this weekend's DNOW is Awaken. My prayer for this weekend is that God will completely awake our souls and create a passion in our hearts to seek Him out in our lives. A lot can change over a few days when we let God move... and I can't wait to see what God does in these high schoolers, my girls, and even myself. I'm expecting some big things from my big God. :)

So God, move in us this weekend. Set our hearts on FIRE for you. Don't let this be just another weekend... change our lives forever. We may be going into this weekend with heavy hearts, Lord... myself included. Break our chains, give us peace, give us You. Let Hannah, Samantha, Megan, Vanessa, Emily, Chloe, Anna and I bond this weekend and become friends that can trust each other and help each other run to you. Rock our worlds, God! Awaken our hearts! You're all that we want!
