Random Stranger

Picture this.
I'm sitting at a table at Starbucks all by myself just reading God's word and journaling. A woman went and sat at the table next to me. She leaned over and asked, "Are you teaching Sunday School or something next week?" (obviously she saw me reading by Bible). I replied no I am not. She replied, "woah, that is so good of you." She went on to tell me she needed to find a new church because her church doesn't do communion enough. I told her about my church Bentree Bible Fellowship. She said she didn't want to interrupt me too much. She went on sitting next to me reading something on her phone. I just went on doing my own thing.
She started to pack up her stuff, but before she left, she nudged me and left me with some encouraging words. She said, "I have been sitting here all this time watching you read your Bible and journal and work on things. I know for a fact that God has great plans for you. Whenever you feel your getting off His righteous path, the Lord will nudge you. Pay attention when He is trying to get you back on the right path. You have great plans ahead of you. You're parents must be really blessed to have you in their lives."
MAN!
The Lord just spoke right through her to me.
I needed that little encouragement.
She also said, "We probably won't meet again, but I want you to know I'll be praying for you."
A complete and total stranger will be praying for me!!
How Crazy right?!
And How awesome is Our God?!
The Lord works in such different ways. I can't stop smiling.
God is so good!
Right when I don't feel His Presence, He says, "Daughter, I'm right here looking after you and loving you. I am constant in your life. Draw hear to my precious."
Remember everyone, God works through people.
Be a light to someone today. Tell them you love them. Tell them they are special.
Go out and Make someone's day today.

Best Friends

I've learned a lot being in college.
I could tell you all about how Glycolisis works in your body to the difference between Maslow and Roger's thinking about goodness to even the writings of William Shakespeare, BUT that's not fun right?
Something I learned while in college that hit me pretty hard was, friends.
Back home, I have three very close friends. They are my Best Friends.
I am the kind of girl, who doesn't just say anyone is my best friend. I take this very seriously.
This word does not just roll off my tongue so easily like others.
A best friend to me is someone who is always their for me, I can talk to them on a deeper level about how their life truly is, they pray for me as I pray for them, when we hangout we laugh till we cry and cry until we laugh, the center of our friendship is the Lord, we enjoy each other's company, we snuggle (haha), they accept my many hugs I give them even if they aren't a touchy person, they put up with my craziness, and they love me for who I am. This is a best friend.
I pray that the Lord surrounds me with these people. These people will always be in my life to go with me through my ups and downs. When I am getting off the path, they will be the ones to knock some sense into me to get my on my right path.
So, safe to say if you are my best friend, you are stuck with me for life. YAY!!
God put these special people in our lives for a reason. How lucky are we?
So, don't just call anyone your best friend. Take it seriously. Don't throw away those words. When you say them, you better mean them.
Best friends are very special people in our lives. Be one to someone else today. Thank your best friends today for loving you.

Forgetful me

How many times have you told someone, "Hey, I'll be praying for you!" And you end up forgetting to pray for them.
Let's be honest, this happens to me frequently.
It's so AWFUL!
I feel so bad when I do this.
But, Why do we do this?
Are we too busy to remember a single prayer request? Do we not care? Do we forget to pray to our Almighty God?
This is something that I need to work on over the next few months. I need to make it a habit to keep my promises of prayer.
So, I challenge myself and YOU to whenever you say, "I'm praying for you!" that you write it down in a journal or post-it and actually follow through on praying for them.
This shouldn't be too difficult. I mean shouldn't we WANT to take some time to pray to our Father?
God Bless and remember the Lord is listening.

He Misses You

It's Christmas break for many of us and it's a time to rest and relax from our jobs, school, and have a break from our busy lives.
BUT, since we are on a break, loneliness can set in. An emptiness.
If you're like me and you are in college then you can relate.
We go from seeing our friends each and everyday to not seeing them at all.
I am from Texas, so most of my friends from college are about 11 hours away or more, so it's not like I can take a quick drive and go meet them for coffee.
How sad is it that we live off these text messages from our friends. The other day, I got so excited that one of my friends texted me saying, "I miss you so much!!"
Yes, it is good to miss your friends. I'm not saying it's bad.
BUT, in this time of break, Seek after the Lord's presence.
I bet He misses you too.
Take a day, go to Starbucks, O'Henrys (for my Alabama readers), go to a park, or somewhere quiet and read God's word. Talk to Him. Pray to Him. He will listen to you for hours.
Yes, you can miss your friends, but I bet someone much bigger and better misses you too.

Our Generation

A few nights ago, my Beloved friend, Lindsay Joy Jones, texted me this very very long text message about this idea of making a DAY OF PRAYER. She is so passionate about having our generation grow closer with God and spreading God's love around the world. Showing people that the Lord is crazy about them. Well, after the long message, she insisted on calling me. Of course, I encouraged it! Her excitement astounded me.
She told me all about how she just feels that our generation is going to do something fantastic for the Kingdom of God. That we are going to rise up and take our place. That we are going to show people the love of God; and we are going to be a light in this dark world.
What she did was set up an event on Facebook making December 19th (today) a DAY OF PRAYER where anyone and everyone spends their day praying over our generation, praying for family and friends, and whatever comes to mind. A day to chat with God, Our Loving Daddy.
How cool is that?!
Honestly, I am so blessed to have a friend like Lindsay Jones.
Now, let's just think about this a minute.
Over 300 people have joined the prayer event and more are still joining. Over 300 people will be praying ALL day. The Lord must be up in Heaven looking down on His children with great joy saying, "ohhh yeah, those are my precious kids!" He must be applauding and getting so excited for this event! I bet He has told all of His angels and they are all gearing up to watch us pray to Our Heavenly Father. They are cheering us on. They are so excited too!
Now, come on tell me that's not the coolest thing to think about?!
The Lord will be listening to us all day long. He will never take a break from hearing our voices.
So, Join Me today as we pray together for our generation to rise up and show everyone the Love of God today! You can sit, kneel, stand, be in a yoga pose for all I care..just pray.
God Bless, and let me know if anyone has any prayer requests! I got you covered!
Love to All.

Don't Forget!

I was sitting in church last Sunday and something came over me.
It's hard to describe, but I'll try my best.
I felt this wave come over me. It was like someone was yelling at me saying, "Lindsay, you are so unfocused on the Lord right now! God has just blessed you abundantly, and what do you do...leave? Come back to the Father. He misses hearing your voice. He misses your conversations. He misses His Daughter."
Man, was that a wake up call or what?
I looked back on the past 2 weeks, and it was right. I had lost focus.
So, let's just say I've been pretty busy.
Finals are this week, and I have been preparing for them. Also, I'm trying to get my Christmas Crafts done for friends and family.
These are good things, but I have been so so distracted.
Distracted in the bad way.
All semester I have literally had to rely on God for everything.
I waited on Him to provide things for me like good friends, a job, etc.
And, He has PROVIDED!
It brings me so much Joy that He answered my prayers. I had to take the time to wait, but He finally said Yes!
BUT, just because He has blessed you with great things, doesn't mean you can't still rely on Him.
WE NEED HIM. ALWAYS.
Life is going well for me right now, but that's when I need Him the most.
There are so many good things happening in my life right now, that I am not focused on my Almighty Creator.
My Amazing Savior.
My Abba Father.
My Daddy.
He is ALL we need.
Why do we lose focus?
Because He has blessed us, and we think everything is fine and dandy. BUT it's not. We need Him more than ever.
So, run after Him. Seek His Face because He deserves it, and we need Him desperately.
If you have felt this way then, "SHOUT UNTO GOD WITH A VOICE OF TRIUMPHANT. SHOUT UNTO GOD WITH A VOICE OF PRAISE!!"Go to Him and talk to Him now. I bet you anything that He misses you.

My Letter, Join Me?

So, for my lovely Foundations Class, my last and final assignment is to write a letter to myself giving myself advice, encouragement, and prayer or anything I want..haha! My teacher will mail this letter to me next year around Christmas time. So, if you would also like to join me in this, it could be fun! Let's all write a letter to ourselves to remind us of how Awesome Our God Truly is and what blessings He has given us!

Here's mine!

Dear Lindsay Meredith Thompson,
Remember the Lord loves you with a crazy love. He is always there to chat with, tell things to, and He listens intently. ALWAYS. You are probably stressing about finals, but don't. You are stronger. You can do this. Don't fret! The Lord will give you strength. Rest in His love.
I want to remind you of all your blessings. Your amazing heartfelt family. Your mom who is always there to listen and love you. She is the best mom ever..no but really. Take time to pray for her now. She deserves your prayers. Her love for you is incredible. Her laugh is contagious. Her love for the Lord is evident; learn from watching how she lives her life and be like that.
Your earthly father is a born leader. He is always there for you. Call him anytime and he will answer. He is a precious dad who loves you very much. He has grown in his walk with God a lot and his trust in the Lord is everlasting.
Your brother is so sweet. Remember he DOES love you. He is hilarious and sarcastic. He keeps your family on their toes, but that's okay. He is a Christian, but be praying for him always. He needs the prayer.
Your precious friends are the best. They are there for you all the time. You can cry on there shoulder and laugh with them till you feel like you're literally dying. Keep your friends close. Don't be afraid to ask them the tough questions and get in a deep conversation. Deep talks bring you closer even if it doesn't seem like it at the moment. Love them forever.
Your sisters are always there for you too. They love you with a sweet sweet love that is somewhat indescribable. By now, you have established your true friends, and your sisters are your forever friends. There is no way of getting out of it. You are stuck with them, which is the best thing ever.
Lastly, the Lord is such a huge blessing! He is your Almighty Father. His Love is all you need. So, take time today to read your Bible, pray to your Daddy, and journal about your Sophomore year because I bet it's been crazy awesome!! I mean, you are Lindsay Meredith Thompson, it must have been awesome! Haha! Just kidding. But really...

P.S. The Lord loves you a lot. a lot. I mean a whole bunch. Remember to LOVE GOD MORE THAN LIFE ITSELF. You learned that your Freshmen year in the Fall.

P.S.S. If Rachel Stokes is still poking you on Facebook...well...KEEP IT UP! DEFEAT HER!

Alpha Love and Mine,
Lindsay Meredith Thompson

Get Back to the Longing

We get so caught up in our lives doing school, studying, hanging with friends, sorority functions, eating, sleeping sometimes, etc. We forget about our Almighty God.
BUT WHY?!
He is Our Savior.
His love carries us through life. His love is everlasting. His love conquers ALL.
I was reminded today to GET CAUGHT BACK IN THE LONGING.
What does that mean?
It means, you should be longing to spend time with the Lord. To be yearning to be in His presence all the time. Praying Constantly. Telling Him everything. Living your life for Him alone.
Long for the Lord.
Long to spend time with Him daily.
So, Go back to the beginning. Call on the Lord and spend time talking to Him again.
Finals are coming up, and we can't do it without Him.
When we are lacking sleep, Rest in His Love. When you are weak and weary, Look to the Father.
We need Him.
Let us all walk in the light of the Lord today.
And remember, "Love God MORE than life itself."

He Finally Said Yes!

I have some very exciting news everyone!
I interviewed for a camp about a month ago, and they called me late last night.
They offered me a job this Summer!!
I couldn't believe it.
I am officially going to be a Camp Counselor at Pine Cove Christian Camps at the Ranch for the first half of the Summer :)
All year God has been telling me, "Daughter, be patient. I will give to you when you are ready."
Those words from God were so hard to take. I wanted things to happen instantly.
I wanted good friends. I wanted to find a home church. I wanted to work at Pine Cove. I wanted to make an impact on the world, etc.
I wanted and wanted and wanted things to happen, but God said to wait.
So, I waited patiently upon the Lord. I prayed constantly. I told Him if it's His plan for me to work there, then let it be.
AND HE FINALLY SAID YES!!
God listens to our prayers.
His plan for your life is so much greater. Remember to trust Him with everything.
Give up your plan because God's is far greater.
When you are worried or struggling or confused, Look to the Father. He listens intently. He is the One you go to with your struggles and hardships. He is always there.
So, remember to wait patiently. Time is in God's hands and His timing is PERFECT :)
Love to all!
And God Bless.

Worrying OH Worrying

I go to this worship time every Tuesday called Shiloh.
And every single time I leave, my mind is so crazy.
Thoughts just running through my head.
Right about now I should be studying for my HUGE Biology test, but I just can't because my mind keeps running.
I have learned recently that I am a Worrier.
Here are just a few things running through my head:
-What should I do with my life?
-I wonder if I will get a job at Pine Cove Summer Camps or not?
-Should I go on a mission trip this Summer?
-Are my grades going to be good enough to get in the Nursing Program? Should I keep striving to be a nurse?
-Are the friends I am making now, friends who will be life-long and always there for me through the bad times and good?
-Is my brother doing okay? I miss him.
-How are my Africa friends doing?
-I'm interested in a boy, but is he interested in me?
-Am I invisible to certain people?
-Why can't I trust God with EVERYTHING?
-Why am I thinking so much?
-Why do I keep worrying?
So, these are only the few things running through my head...I know it's a lot.
Do you ever feel like all you do is think and worry about your life.
Why do we do this?
Because we aren't trusting God with out lives.
We have to fully give ourselves over to Him.
Why is this so hard? Because we want to control our lives. We love plans. We love the power.
STOP WORRYING and Do something awesome for the Kingdom.
Think that way.
"Trust STEADILY, Hope UNSWERVINGLY, Love EXTRAVAGANTLY." 1 Corinthians 13:13

Struggling

Trust is a very hard thing.
I'm obviously still learning.
Today was just not my day.
I had not been worrying about my future for weeks. Letting God take care of it all because His plan is better than mine.
But today, my trust in the Lord was tested beyond belief.
At Samford this morning we had to sign-up for classes for Spring Semester. I woke up at approximately 5:45am. At 6:00am the registration crashed. I preceded to wait until 7:20am to sign-up for my classes. BUT, some students got to put in all there classes and get there teachers at 6am because it didn't crash for them.
I was not lucky enough to enjoy that precious moment.
I waited and refreshed my computer page over 100 times until it was finally my turn to sign-up for my classes. I clicked Submit, and saw the dreaded news.
Out of 4 classes that I needed, I only received one class. I had to go back and pick different teachers at random times that was not what I had planned. It was just awful!
I still can't get into an Anatomy class that I REALLY NEED!
I sat in astonishment.
I couldn't believe it.
Why was my plan not working? I had my days planned to a T. It was going to be pure BLISS.
But now, I have miserable classes.
I had to rush to Biology class at 8am and then right after I called my mom.
Man, do I miss her!!
She can't help me since I am now independent and on my own. I am okay with that, but all I wanted was a hug from her. She let me know that it would be alright. God is in control.
Really?!
God is in control?!
What is He doing? I had a plan. It was perfect.
But, that's not what He had in mind.
I keep asking myself, "Lord, what do you want me to do?"
The Lord is really testing my Trust in Him. He keeps saying, "Beautiful Daughter, Look to me for guidance. Seek after Me alone. Trust in my Love, daughter."
You have to give up your own plan. give up your own thoughts. Give it up.
Let the Lord have your worries, your plans, your life. Because, He is so much better.
So, this week I will be working on Trusting Him.
Please send a prayer my way. And I will be praying for you too.
Love to all.
God Bless!

Take the Time

I've learned over the past few weeks that you have to take the time to be alone every once in a while.
Isolation is not my forte...
I am a people person.
An Extrovert to be exact.
Hence, I am NOT good at being alone.
BUT, God put me in a place of aloneness. He said, "daughter, you need to learn how to be alone with me."
I kept asking people to hangout or get lunch or coffee, but people seemed to be busy. I'm pretty sure God was just yelling at me saying, "Hello! Daughter, come be with Me. Stop thinking about others and spend some time with Me!"
He put me in a place where all I had was Him.
The Lord commands our time.
I spent hours on the quad these past few weeks just chattin it up with God. Praying. Journaling. Reading His Word.
We need to make sure we have that precious quiet time with just Him. Because He wants you to be in His presence. To spend some time talking with Him.
He rejoices over us when we call on His name.
I picture Him looking down on me saying, "Daughter, tell me your life. Show me your needs. Tell me everything. Don't skip a thing, because I love you."
How Precious is Our God that HE WANTS TO SPEND TIME WITH US!
How Beautiful is that?!
So, this week when you are feeling alone, isolated from the world, or discontent, LOOK TO THE FATHER. He will always be there to listen. He will always be there to comfort you.
Our God is Sovereign.
SEEK HIS FACE.
God Bless.

Blessings Galore

Let's be honest, I was terrified coming to college.
"Was I going to make friends? Lifelong friends? Was I going to fail all my classes? Will I become lukewarm in my faith?"
I was frantically worrying.
BUT, through prayer God has blessed me abundantly.
Here's a quicklist of amazing things God has done in my life so far in college.
1) He has blessed me with a great hall! 4th EASTLOVE. I am able to just walk into my friend's rooms and get encouragement, pray with them, and love on them. God is good.
2) I struggled with my Biology class at first, but as of right now I have a B! There were times of sitting on the steps of Pittman just crying my eyes out because I felt I couldn't do it anymore, BUT the Lord said, "NO daughter of mine will fail." And now I'm getting it! God is good.
3) I am blessed with amazing sisters all around me. I am in a sorority called AOII (Alpha Omicron Pi) and loving it. I wasn't sure at first, but God said, "Daughter, this is where I want you. Be a light and spread My Love to your new sisters." And I am ecstatic that He has placed me here. Sisters in AOII and Sisters in Christ! God is good.
4) I am blessed with a really wonderful friend named, Christina Lynn Rickman. She is my Big Sister in AOII. She is such a blessing in my life! God knew what He was doing when He put us together. I love her and hope we are friends for a lifetime. God is good.
5) My family is so precious to me. I have cried three times so far being away from home. I love my mom and dad and brother so much. They are precious blessings in my life. My mom is so wise. What a role model she is for me in my life. She has gotten me through so much in college like reminding me that God is going to use me in so many ways this year, to be a light for people, to read my Bible daily, to pray constantly, to be open to change, to love on others unconditionally, and she has also gotten me a great Biology tutor, reminded me that God speak to us through His Word, and I just LOVE my mom so much! God is good!
6) I am blessed by my new friend, Kaitlyn Teem. I am so happy to be able to call her my Sister (AOII). She has really been there for me even into the late hours of the night when I just need someone to talk to. She is there. We both tell eachother what's going on in our lives and we pray for eachother. She even prayed over me one time when I had an awful day. I think that is love right there, to place your physical hands on someone and pray wholeheartedly over them. That is love. She has brought so much JOY into my life this year. God is good.
7) I am blessed by my new friend, Lindsey Kelley. What an adorable girl! She is absolutely precious! She is also my new sister in AOII. We love to have long room talks. We go into eachother's rooms and just talk and talk and talk. We also go to get ice cream and run a few red lights..oops! YAY! She is so amazing! Love her! God is good.
8) Okay, Let's just say there are so many wonderful people in my life. Here are a few more: Rebekah Grubbs, Jordan Webb, Nicole Smith, Kristen Minor, Rachel Stokes, Amy Vu, Kelly Geasley, Taylor Pigman, Halley Smith, Jane E, Lauren Windsor, and more. Sorry if I missed you, YOU ARE STILL LOVED! God is good.
9) Also, my friends back home! Lindsay Joy Jones. Ariel Nicole Samuels. Paige Little Sister Hartsfield. Yall get me through life. I love you precious girls. God is good.
10) God has taught me so much. Honestly, I haven't learned this much in a long time. I have learned that JOY is always attainable, Prayer is Powerful, God speaks through His Word, Friendship is a two-way street, You can't keep giving of yourself or else you will burn out, and Earthly love no way compares to the Lord's LOVE. God is good.
God bless all of these people and Praise God for the things He has taught me so far!
God is good!

Love Languages

So, I have come to the conclusion that I now have more than one Love Language.
I might even have three.
Crazy, I know...
But here we go!
Number One: I am OBSESSED with HUGGGSS! I might have a serious problem. I love them so much. I love physical touch. I know it sounds creepy, but it isn't I promise. Let me digress. The feeling of a best friend holding me while I cry on them or you are so ecstatic to see your friend you jump into there arms! I love those moments. I love walking arm and arm with someone. It just brings me Joy!
Number Two: This ones a new one since being at college. I LOVE QUALITY TIME. I am a people person. Shocker right? NOPE! But, I have noticed that whenever I ask my friends to do something and they can't because of schoolwork or they are just plain busy, it makes me somewhat sad. It's not like I want to be with people all the time, but when they say no to things multiple times, it makes me sad. I feel like they don't want to be with me and they don't love me. WHICH I KNOW IS FALSE. It's just a feeling that I need to get over. Sooner rather than later. I will be praying through this.
Number Three: Last but not least. I LOVE ENCOURAGING NOTES! I freak out when I get mail. LITERALLY. I feel so loved because that person who wrote to me had to take time out of there day to write me a note and send it to me. For those moments, they were thinking about me. It just makes you feel so loved. I LOVE MAIL!
So, as of right now I love HUGGGS, HANGING OUT, AND MAIL.
This is so crazzzzyy!
Love Languages are great, but I have to remind myself that GOD'S LOVE IS SO MUCH GREATER THAN ANY HUG, NOTE, FRIEND TIME. His LOVE Conquers ALL. HIS LOVE IS INSANE! And He is truly CRAZY about you! So this week, when you are feeling unloved, feeling alone, feeling discontent, Look to the Father. Seek His Love. Seek His Face.

His Plan not Mine

Learning to listen is the hardest part.
Last weekend, I was struggling with questions like, "God, What do I do with my life? Are you even listening to my prayers? Hello, Do something please?!"
I am still undeclared as my major, and I feel so lost at what to do with my life.
For 3 weeks now I have been praying constantly to God, telling Him I want to do what HE wants me to do. For Him to show me what to do with my life, but no answer.
I became impatient.
I got to the point to where all I could do was cry and cry. I wanted to know so badly.
Should I be a nurse, youth pastor, teacher, counselor..I don't know!
Right after I had my crying session in my bed for 10 minutes, I got a text from my lovely mother. It said, "Lindsay, I know you're struggling with what to do with your life, but remember reading God's Word is the best way to hear from Him."
WHAT?!
I had forgotten that God speaks to us through His Scripture!
For weeks on end I had been praying. praying. praying. AND don't get me wrong. Praying is a very good thing, and He is listening, but you also have to be in the Word.
This week let's focus on DIGGING DEEPER in His Amazing Word.
Be open to what He has to say to you in His Word.
SEEK HIM WITH EVERYTHING YOU HAVE!! Now legggggo!

The Search for Finding Joy

This past week I had been going non-stop. Never taking a break. Studying. Class. Sorority. Shiloh. Eat. Sleep some. And Repeat.
I was tired of routine. I was tired of just going through the motions of life.
I needed something.
I felt an emptiness.
Why did I feel this way? I was happy, but not Joyful. There is a difference.
I started praying to God to give me unending JOY. Ohh and did He bring it.
I was driving from Panera to go see a movie, Courageous, and I turned up the volume in my car. I listened to a song called Where I Belong by Cory Asbury. There is one part where I just lost it. Tears running down my face because singing to the Lord made life so much better. I could feel His GLORIFYING PRESENCE! He gave me JOY!! From listening to one song, it captivated me in a new way. I couldn't stop smiling. Since then, I have been not just happy with my life, but JOYFUL.
The next day, I read in Jesus Calling...Guess what it was about? JOY! Crazy, right?
Here's a great quote from the passage, "Let your primary focus be communing with Me, worshipping Me, glorifying Me. Then you will be able to SMILE at others with MY JOY and LOVE them with MY LOVE."
God's JOY is ALWAYS attainable. Just Ask Him.
