Wow....Keep praying

Brief update! Thank you for your prayers! I spoke at the Panhellenic and Inter Fraternity Council meetings on campus yesterday. Delegates from all the Greek chapters on campus were there and 22 houses invited us to come over on Sunday with our friends from the Maze. Most Greek Chapters have about 200 members. That means that potentially 4400 people could receive a personal invitation to the MAZE event and have an opportunity to hear the gospel. These are the leaders on campus. The student body president at UK is Greek.

You would not believe the other conversations I have been having on campus. Here is a text message that I received tonight at 10:30.

"So I thought about you a lot today. And I decided, that you make me feel safe. You reassure me that I can make it through the day...that's how my relationship with God is supposed to be ...isn't it? Listening to you inspires me...gives me hope. Its like you were sent especially for me, to help me learn, understand and forgive God. Thank you, so much for everything Abigail...I feel like I can't say that enough."

If y'all could only sit in on my conversations with "Sarah". Imagine, a cheery looking blond with blue eyes. A little shy with a country accent. Sarah loves the bands "Skillet", riding quads in Tennessee (I had to ask what they were, for other city folk like me, that is a 4 wheeler). A t-shirt, jeans and pony-tale kind of girl.
She loves to laugh, talk about life, and loves being at a school where not everyone knows the move you made the day before.

Behind her timid eyes lays a hurt so deep and confusion so dark that it has pushed her to numerous suicide attempts that even her parents are unaware of. She wants to know, is there a God. Does He really care about me, and can He be trusted.

Do you even realize the impact you have as you pray and as you join in this ministry? I could not have this conversation on my own. I met Sarah because she filled out a spiritual survey in order to get blue and white beaded necklaces at an event before school began. When i called her because of the survey she chose to come meet with a total stranger. God has given me an opportunity to see her, to invite her into my home for dinner, and to pray His protection and truth over her. All of this because You are praying and giving. Thank you. Please continue to pray. The Lord desires Sarah experience HIS love, not just my own. I want her to know Jesus and only He can change her.

From one in AWE of the glorious God we serve,

Abigail
