Around the Walls of Doane: Day 4

We have come to the middle of our week and while driving to Doane tonight I realized how easy it would be to loose focus and simply go through the motions. I prayed that God would renew my heart and open my eyes to specific walls on campus. Before heading out on our walk tonight we took some time to ask God to arms us for the battle we were putting ourselves in by asking God to show up. We prayed out of Ephesians 6, putting on the different pieces of the armor of God, and then we headed out.

God honored my request from the car and gave me focus, as well as clarity in what I should be praying for as I passed different buildings. God has been growing my heart for Doane College campus with every walk I take around it. I have been amazed at the way He brings something new to my attention each day.

When we finished up Rachel (on the left), a student who was walking with us the first time tonight, closed us in prayer. I don't know if you have ever experienced the spirit move as someone is praying the exact things that are on your heart, but it is amazing. As Rachel prayed I knew the Spirit was moving powerfully. I felt God affirming me in my faith. I can't wait to head out tomorrow.

By the way, I will be playing basketball after our walk tomorrow night with some of the girls on campus and will be inviting Christina from last night. Pray that she would be able to come and I would be able to have a spiritual conversation with her. Until tomorrow.
