I love it when God meets with me. Amazing things happen and know that my heart is with Him. I have delayed posting this because I needed to really think about it and try to understand it more.
Some of you may know that one of my favorite places to go is Azusa Canyon. I can always find God there and I go up there all the time. Sometimes it is like I know every twist and turn like the back of my hand. Last Thursday evening, I was just at home debating what part of my homework to work on. I suddenly heard God loud and clear saying "Go up Azusa Canyon. Right now. Go." So I got up, and asked God, what I should bring. He said my guitar, Bible, devotional, and to wear my Vans. Haha ok God, what's going on? On my way he has me take a detour and stop by the Condo that I lived in for 10 years and He just wanted me to play my guitar some and just listen and reminisce. So I did. And then God was like "Ok, let's go." I love God's humor sometimes :) So I drove up and stopped at probably one of the only turnouts that I hadn't stopped in before haha At this turnout you can kind of walk down close to the water in the dam. Right about now it was probably 6:45 ish and was just starting to rain back in the canyon. Yet I got out with just my jacket and car keys and walked down. God met me where I was. He always does. I felt convicted the entire drive.... I had hit a bump in the road with family matters and life doesn't seem to want to slow down enough for me to breathe and I keep messing things up. But most importantly, I was thinking about how Jesus died for me. I never did anything to earn this kind of love but He still gives it ever so generously. And what's more is that I can NEVER repay God for this... It just keeps blowing my mind!

God continued meeting me through out the drive....I was about to go check out something that I had heard about and God was like "Nope, turn around and go up further." So quite reluctantly I did so. You see, a few weeks ago now another part of the canyon was reopened for canyon lovers :) I have adventured up there now probably 6 or 7 times and each time I have noticed a car that has been abandoned. I keep thinking about the car and what could have happened to the person who drove it up there. God wanted me to go and see if the car was still there. I was like "God, can I please go tomorrow or something? Its pouring rain now and its uber dark back here and it's actually kind of scary..." "Go." Darnit, ok so I went haha and the car was still there! I started taking down info about the car so I could report it. It's getting darker and raining more and more and up there the roads are narrow, slippery, and intense and I'm starting to get more and more nervous for the drive down. I was just about to turn around and head down and around the bend headed down the mountain comes a big tough white truck. I trailed behind the truck all the way down and then lost it at the opening of the canyon. God sent me an angel in a way to guide me down :)
I'm not sure why I needed to tell you all about this but I did. God can and does meet people wherever and whenever, regardless of their situation. This is probably one of the things I love most about God. When He meets me, man, He meets me haha Now that's my God :)
