Hillsong In Australia

Hillsong In Australia

This week I experienced the incredible opportunity to attend Hillsong conference 2016. This group is a group church based out of Sydney, Australia. Thousands of people travel from all over the world just to attend the weekend. This was the third year that I have attended.

There is nothing like this life-changing conference. There is nothing like thousands of people shout out Jesus' praises! In just two days, you are able to befriend so many other followers of Jesus Christ! It has always refreshed my heart to be in the midst of others shouting out and praising the Name of Jesus Christ! The whole room is filled with the Holy Spirit, bringing me overwhelming tears of joy. Speakers from all around the world come to speak for each session. It is balanced with humor and serious topics that challenge you heavily to think. All of the volunteers helping you out make you feel warm and welcomed. Special effects make you speechless with the creativity that they genuinely come up with!

Investments surely have to be made if you desire to attend the conference, but each penny is worth it. You don't just think, oh this is great music, you're saying to yourself, Wow, I'm speechless!

The last night of the weekend I got to dance, laugh and worship with a very good friend that I made at last years conference. Many people gave their hearts to the Lord as the church gifted us an opportunity for us to be a part of communion. Each person is welcome to take off and cry out to God. Sometimes I watch the whole auditorium raise their hands up high and shout out Jesus' praises! These are only a couple of experiences that you would take in along with so many others! I am definitely counting down the days until next years conference in California!

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
