Those are both great verses and great reminders that God is in control and He loves us. Indeed, as believers what have we to fear? God is so good! <br /><br />Thank you for sharing your thoughts, and for leaving such a sweet comment! :)<br /><br />~AmberAmber Holcombhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15100265646497152198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4163733401418146284.post-57717221642724867822010-09-06T20:23:59.516-06:002010-09-06T20:23:59.516-06:00Kate,

The teachers are great, the classes are generally interesting and challenging, the campus is lovely, and the overall atmosphere is wonderful! The dorms are quite comfortable. (I recommend Balyo, myself, especially with how nice it looks, but some girls prefer Aagard because of the private bathrooms.) I love the community, and the gym and other facilities are really nice. <br /><br />Overall, I think Corban is a great choice! Depending on where you're coming from, it does seem to rain a lot here, especially in the winter, but as I said before, the campus is beautiful (and you get your exercise walking up and down the hills!). I think this is also a great place to be encouraged in your faith, to learn more about God, and to seek His will for your life.<br /><br />Let me know if you have any other questions, and it was nice to meet you! :)<br /><br />~AmberAmber Holcombhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15100265646497152198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4163733401418146284.post-42289249838597807102010-09-06T20:17:29.690-06:002010-09-06T20:17:29.690-06:00Amanda,

And I do like the KJV, too!<br /><br />Thank you for your sweet, encouraging words! :) I love blogging and reading, so those are what I enjoy doing often during my free time. I'd like to think that writing is my passion. :) I hope God uses me in whatever way He desires, though, and that He'll guide me and strengthen me to surrender to my destiny, like the theme in Surrender the Heart!<br /><br />I couldn't agree more with your words about the book, and I'm so glad MaryLu sent me a copy! She is such a wonderful, generous person!!! :D And I was so excited after you said that about chapter 20--I couldn't wait to read it! I actually ended up finishing the book in the wee hours of the morning last night, and again I completely agree...chapter 20 is amazing! :D<br /><br />Thank you again for your prayers and support! Hope you have a great week!<br /><br />~Amber<br /><br />P.S. I don't know if you already saw this in my other post, but I watched and ADORED North & South! LOVED it!!! :DAmber Holcombhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15100265646497152198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4163733401418146284.post-27412169829130882182010-09-06T15:39:17.091-06:002010-09-06T15:39:17.091-06:00Amber,

Also love the verse before it:<br /><br />But now, thus says the LORD, who created you, O Jacob, And He who formed you, O Israel: "Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by your name; You are Mine. -Is 43:1<br /><br />Makes me think what can we fear. He has paid for ALL. We are so dear, intimate, and personal to Him...and WE are HIS. All great reasons to fear not. <br /><br />Thanks so much, Amber. You have blessed my Monday!Julia M.

Also love that you used the KJV- makes scripture sound so much more poetic, especially that particular verse ;)<br /><br />Even in school, you find the time to write these amazing, uplifting, encouraging posts! A testament to your wonderful writing ability and your relationship with Christ :) Thank you for blessing us!!<br /><br />And, SO happy you got and are reading Surrender the Heart!!! There is such a wealth of spiritual growth packed into those pages that often brought me to tears. I really identified with Marianne's struggle with fear and insecurity. MaryLu wrote it all so well, especially the transformations both spiritually and in the relationship between Marianne and Noah. Chapter 20 is HEART MELTING!!! Can't wait to read your review on it :D<br /><br />Praying school is going well, my friend, and that you have a great Labor Day!! Off to go catch up on your others posts...<br /><br />Blessings,<br />Amanda StanleyAmanda Stanleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16372107574684016349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4163733401418146284.post-60937817544829445002010-09-05T14:38:27.218-06:002010-09-05T14:38:27.218-06:00Casey,
