For this post, there's no theme or story tie-in. The thing I want to highlight this week are people I'd like you to pray for. It'll be brief but prayer for these folks is very much needed.
The UT Campus: it's a very liberal campus which was expected, but I didn't think the students here would be so apathetic to the Gospel or even spirituality in general. The amount of times "I don't really think about faith or religion" astounds me more than all the atheists I've talked to. Pray that God would drop the walls that people build around their hearts.
The UT Nav students: they are very much caught in the midst of a spiritual battle here. The vast majority of their classmates/professors are most likely not Christians. This makes them rely on God more, so pray they are able to do so more and more.
"Beau": I don't remember what alias I used for this guy previously, but Beau will do for now. This is the agnostic student I met two weeks ago to read the bible with. I met with him again this past Monday, but this time I just wanted to focus on trying to build a relationship with him and not pursue any other agenda. I think a friendship could develop. Hopefully I'll gain his respect and be able to talk more with him about Christ. Pray that God would take away whatever idols Beau has and leave a void in his heart that only God can fill.
"Ryan": This is a guy that's in the Navs but has been pretty flaky. I don't want to give details, but he needs prayers for God to comfort him.
Fall Retreat: This weekend, the ministry will be going on a retreat. It's a good time to get away from school/work and to hear from the Lord. Pray that the Lord would move in the hearts of the students this weekend.
Game Night: JR and I host our weekly game and pizza night tonight on his floor at 7. Pray that the residents would be hungry for free pizza and good conversation!
Thank you for your thoughts and prayers! Message me if there is anyway I can improve my communication or pray for you specifically!
