Voting Day

Once again the morning started off with Richard's class- Biblical Introduction. We mostly went over our assignment regarding Hermeneutics and Exegesis. We also looked at passages of scripture that are often taught wrong, because they were not understood properly in our day and age. Most of these scriptures applied to the people of then. After class the other interns headed off to work for their MP's while I went to Question Period. (I start working for mine next Tuesday.) Compared to the last couple of days, the House of Commons was pretty quiet. The only difference was that the government had invited some of the 911 victims to help get thier point across as to why the Anti-terrorist Act should remain. Stephan Dion once again did not show up, and it was rumored that it was because he couldn't face the victim's families. A few hours after this the House of Commons voted on the Act and it was denied, a 134 to 159. It doesn't make sense as to why so many were against, but it was a disappointing day for the Conservatives. After supper we had Rob's class. Tonight we learnt how to have authority in intercession. If I could summarize it in one point, Rob was basically saying that when we are abiding in Christ and pursuing our call, we are given authority for that area. He also stated that we should be very aware of our boundaries in prayer and not over step them by say, taking on something we do not have authority to, this is a very dangerous place to be as an intercessor. Well I am off, but I will talk to you all tomorrow. Have a great night.
