CRU

I don't know where to start with this post so I will start with the verse that I just read and go from there

"Though the fig tree does not bud and there are no grapes on the vines, though the olive crop fails and the fields produce no food, thought there are no sheep in the pen and no cattle in the stalls, yet I will rejoice in the Lord, I will be joyful in God my Savior." Habbakkuk 3:17-18

Lately I feel like this verse, I feel like nothing is being produced and I am empty handed but through all of this I will still praise God. I have been working with some others to get a christian group on campus called Campus Crusade for Christ (CRU), the mission of this group is to bring the gospel within arms reach of every student. Marian University desperately needs to hear the gospel! Spiritually speaking, the campus is dead, yes there are some believers here and there but the majority of the campus is living for the world.

Yes, I did graduate from Marian last summer but I still care about the campus and the spiritual well being of its students. I want to see Marian transformed into a place where everyone has a chance to have a personal relationship with Jesus! I want others to experience new life! I have been praying and working with others to make this dream a possibility. Yesterday, the possibility of having CRU at Marian was shot down for the time being anyways. The one person's approval we needed to go ahead with this said no. It can be so frustrating when you are working for something that will further the kingdom of God and it is shot down. I am not giving up, I know God wants His presence known on this campus, it just might not happen the way I envisioned it. God knows best so I just need to trust in Him and His perfect plan.
