thrive not survive

So where do I begin? I'm just going to go bullet form I think:

• a friend Ian saw someone pray to receive Christ yesterday! I think they're planning on meeting up tomorrow for follow up. PRAISE GOD!
• this whole semester has been a GIANT spiritual warfare battleground. Right from the get-go everyone around me was feeling the attack, and it's still continuing. I'm not even being exaggerative. Out of 6 girls @ DG tonight we were ALL struggling with our times with God. I really don't think that's a coincidence (plus there's a lot of really exciting things going on @ Queen's...)
• which leads me to my next point: please continue praying that we'd have a spirit of unity within the group but also within the fellowships.
  
• pray for me.... my times with God have been sucky but there have been some break-throughs finally. I think partly I'm just really not feeling built into at all. Partly because of my lack of devos, but i'm also not really getting much from my DG etiher... I'm realizing just how much I got from our DGs this summer ladies - you guys taught me so much!
• pray that God would open/close doors for next summer. I'm really unsure about things right now. I'm not really sure if I've mentioned this at all, but there was a prospect of me going overseas to do a development project and get a bunch of credits for it @ school. (which translates to 1.5 credits @ queen's or likely 9 credits elsewhere) BUT things just aren't working out as i had thought. I'm going to find out more tomorrow when I talk to the prof of that course. I've concluded (thus far) that if I don't get accepted into the course, that I'll be going on North Africa project next summer. If I do get into the course, i have 2 options of organizations to work with: Queens Project on International Development or Hope international (yay rainbow).... but i don't know anything really about Hope yet. SO, if those two things fall through - you guessed it, NA! I just need God to open and close doors, and give me a heart (or more of a heart) for the area that he wants... wisdom and guidance would be fantastic too.
• pray that I can minister to my friend Julie in the way that she needs.... and that I woul better balance my life.. balance is SO my archenemy.
• also.... things with God have so not been great. did i mention that already?? oh yeah, i did. I haven't been sharing since montreal - i know... bad. But point 1 has made me more encouraged to do that. um.... there was something else i was going to say but i forget.... yeah i totally forget.. OH WAIT. got it
• i'm playing @ our weekly meeting tomorrow night... PIANO. scareeeee. You guys were the first people I played for other than my church at home and these people are my peers and semi-close friends. semi-close is harder because they can totally make fun of you and talk behind your back about how much you suck. close friends don't. haha i'm being totally paranoid, but pray for me anyways
• OHHHHH that's what I was going to say... (see my title) - God challenged me today not to just survive, but to thrive.
