Over the past month, JMU has seen 5 deaths. Our campus is shaken right now. People who don't know God are praying. People who don't know each other are loving one another. Compassion fills the campus. Hearts are broken for the Dukes who's lives ended so suddenly.
God is stirring. He is answering the prayer that CRU has been praying for almost a year now...revival. God wants to make Himself known to JMU, He wants to show people what He can do for them and the incredible comfort only He can provide. It is so difficult for me to not know if those 5 souls knew Jesus, but I pray that they did. That alone puts the urgency in my heart to proclaim the name of Jesus to JMU. Now, more than ever, is when people have questions and are searching for answers. Jesus has equipped us with the answers. We are being called into battle for Him. Satan looks at this and cannot wait to start corrupting hearts even more. But we, as disciples of Jesus, must defend with the only thing we have that can defeat Satan...Jesus.
I know we don't understand tragedies, but God's gift to those who believe is peace.
"The Lord is good, a refuge in times of trouble. He cares for those who trust in Him." -Nahum 1:7
This should be the Truth in our hearts.
Show this campus Your grace.
