I was in Nashville this past weekend because two of my good friends were getting engaged. They both have very strong faith in Jesus Christ and it was just really cool. They shared such a cool love for each other and for God that it was pretty amazing to see even just how they looked at each other. The joy that they shared with each other was really awesome and it felt like the whole weekend could not have gone any smoother. There was a total of 30 people there from out of town including family and about 8 other friends from college and from growing up and it was just an awesome time.
One thing I took out of the weekend was the idea of relating things in the present to those of the past. I have had some awesome times studying the Bible with a lot of the people that were there; that fact I think encouraged the idea that the whole time I could just feel God’s presence. Even at a bar I felt like God was there, my friend is a country singer and he was singing at a bar on Saturday night, so we all went to the bar and just shared in an awesome time of hanging out and singing songs that were about shared times that we had together. A couple summers ago we would always go down to a river and he would sing the same songs; I immediately, every time I hear the songs go back to those times that we shared and I just feel so blessed by God. Is it weird that sometimes there are just those people that you can see Christ in so clearly? And that they seem to bring out Christ in you at the same time?
