A Glipse of the End

Greetings from Northeastern!

Last night was a really uplifting night in what has started to be a bit of a string of discouraging days with classes getting started and all that. I skipped out on the mandatory presentation featuring the author of "Three Cups of Tea" and went to the Agape Christian Fellowship. It's basically the Campus Crusade for Christ here at NU. There were about twenty or thirty of us in this room at the Student Center.

Immediately when I got in the room I could feel and absorb the love for the Lord and the love for everyone from the Agape people That's pretty awesome cause the term "agape" is Greek for the selfless type of love. I grabbed a slice of pizza after meeting a few Agape members. There was some small talk with a pretty diverse group. Then the leaders of the Agape, Paul and Allie, got up and gave a little talk about what all goes on in Agape. They've got this Fall Retreat to a lake in New Hampshire the last weekend of September that I think I'll go to; it'll give me a chance to get out of the city.

After giving the basics, a guy named Colin came up to share his testimony which is always awesome to hear how other people found God. You could also see the laboring and working the Lord had done within Colin during his walk with God thus far.

I left that meeting with a great smile on my face and thinking that if I don't accomplish anything else during my time up here I want to be like Paul, Allie, or Colin. I want random unknown people to take notice of my love for others and most importantly, my love for God.
