The way I see it, many times what we want and what God wants coincide. Not always, but I think that if we have the great desire to help others and want to to something for God and His purpose, God will move us to act. We will want to do His will if we have the love in which to do it. The only time we don't want to do what God wishes us to is if we are going against His will and His plan for us, or we are sinning/ tempted. Wow, that sounds amazing!

I can honestly say that i've never been able to experiance God in such a literal fation. For me, it seems to be in circumstances, situations that never would have been possible without Him, but also as a as a desparate need to change my direction in life. I've had a few of these experiances, one a bit more personal than the other. (I'm not gonna go into details on that one, it would be a bit TMI) The first is an experiance I had when I was in college. The denomination leadership group that owned a Christian youth camp that I had a great attachment to was selling it. This is the camp that I had been saved at, if I had to point to a time. worse than that, I heard rumors that it might be purchaced as a hunting grounds or for some other non-christian purpose. I wasn't sure what to do, but then I found out that there was an organization that wanted to purchace the camp and preserve it as the Christian youth camp it had been, but they didn't have enough money. So I did the only thing I could. I got up in front of my church one Sunday, (I had actually planned it the previous Sunday, but it didn't work out for some reason) and asked for donations. I had a number of people ask me about it afterwords, and was able to distribute flyers. A few weeks later, I found out that a very generous doner had leant them an interest-free loan for the amount they needed to buy the camp. More astounding, they heard from the donor that he heard about the organization when I had spoken up in church. If I hadn't spoken on that Sunday, that person would not have been there, and the camp wouldn't be operating this year. As amazing as this is, I sometimes feel frustrated that I can't seem to tell when I'm doing something because I want to, or if it is indeed Him working in me, guiding my steps and decisions. I've been praying for you throughout this sickness, and I will continue to do so. Don't give in, I really enjoy your comics and I'll wait as long as it takes! Hello,
