So yesterday I ended up going to watch the Benfica-Barcelona at the stadium. Dinner. Movie.
In great company with a good Christian friend.
Not the day that I had planned, at all.
But the Holy Spirit has been convicting me to be encouraging, and this guy wanted to see a Barcelona game badly, and this was clearly the best soccer game he would have an opportunity to watch live, while he's in Portugal.
It was incredible to see his face light up when we bought the tickets, after we were told by a scammer there were no more tickets for sale. Just incredible.
That's what we're in this Earth to do, to show love to others, you know? To see their faces light up, sacrificing ourselves, our time and our possessions without wanting anything in return.
I'm still mourning some things going on my life, I still have my huge struggles, but that's not a reason to stop. God is still amazing. God still keeps His promises. We just have to trust Him. He knows what we need, so much better than we do.
Besides, I can see how being single allows me to turn so much extra time to God and what He needs out of me. Catholic church isn't completely wrong on that view of celibacy. Now, I don't mean to be single all my life, it says in the bible "It's not God for man to be alone" before God created woman. I do hope God blesses me with a wife and a family, but I can wait if He wants me to keep my focus on Him, on others, and my Christian growth for the time being.
Don't know what else to write about. I've been really hungry to write on my Novel. Great chapters coming up. Just need to find the time to sit and write them.
God bless y'all this week.
