Air Force Recruiting: A Wife's Journey: 7/31/11

My Testimony

27 February 2011 through 6 March 2011 I was awakened each morning at 3:30a.m. After day two or three I really began to wonder why 3:30???? I know it wasn't my physical body waking up that early. So on Saturday, 5 March, one of my sisters from Bible study said "Chantel, just pray. There is a meaning behind 3:30" That night, still nothing. So on Sunday, 6 March, around 530a.m. "John" was dropped in my spirit. (At this point, still not connecting with 3:30). So I grabbed my Bible from the night stand and thumbed through John, starting with John 1. John 1....nope, John 2.....not there. Then I came across John 3:30...."He must become greater; I must become less." What a mighty God we serve!!!!! Lord, I thank you for your power! **Look at God** Today in Japan, it's 3/30/2011 & I started this blog around 3:30am (there's 3:30 again) This is the start of something great for me. I love to put the pen to the paper, but I want to share my journey. I don't know what the Lord will give me from day to day, but I promise to become less so He can be greater. Enjoy and blessings to you! -Chantel
