...because He knew my life would be boring without it. :O)
my true friends are the ones who ask me how Epic went. thanks to those who ask about it. means a lot to me. shows you care and understand how important it is to me.
Tonight was our first Epic meeting of the year! It was very blessed as always :O)
i was sitting in the back just reflecting on how crazy God's plans are. About three years ago [maybe 4], God had a vision to start Epic at UCR. Two people stepped up to put that plan into action and pursued and invested into 3 of us. Well, all of the hard work, caring, and planning turned out to be successful and now those 3 students caught the vision and are devoted to Epic.
Last year, Epic became official on UCR as a club on campus. It was answered prayer. We started with 3 people, averaged about 22 at our weekly meetings. it was amazing and PURELY only God who orchestrated everything.
This year, we have another classroom. it feels GREAT having our own room. our very own room dedicated to Epic to be free to worship God and talk without outside noise. We have a new staff team and as always, they are always dedicated, super helpful, caring, and awesome!! I can't get over how many lessons God has taught and is still teaching me through serving in Epic. it's so mind blowing to me. i never thought in a million years that i would be co-leading a club. responsibility scares me, especially when it involves others' spiritual lives. but God has taught me a lot through my insecurities and has given me so many encouraging staff, co-leaders, and friends. God has shown me that he CAN take me higher than i could ever imagine.
i just need to do my part and follow Him wholeheartedly.
