Brenda:  When I attended Urbana in '03, I was struggling with an eating disorder and did not want to give them up to God. Finally, God got my attention and I tried to give it over to Him but found that I couldn't. Finally, I prayed, "God, I want to give this to you, but I can't, so if you want it, take it!" He did--completely! For the first time in years, I am free from the depression and sin that has bound me. I am free to serve God and am planning on becoming a missionary after college graduation. 01/17/04

"Peter said to him, "We have left everything to follow you!" "I tell you the truth," Jesus replied, "no one who has left home or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or fields for me and the gospel will fail to receive a hundred times as much in this present age (homes, brothers, sisters, mothers, children and fields—and with them, persecutions) and in the age to come, eternal life." "

Mark 10:28-30 (NIV)
