A blank shell

Well forgive me again my friends for neglecting you once more. Life has been full of papers and assignments and all that jazz that comes with school. It is extremely hard to believe that there are about 5 or 6 weeks left in this semester and that is an exciting and unnerving revelation.

Anyway outside of school, I have been experiencing this ongoing onslaught of issues that I am having to release into God's hands. They are not all necessarily issues that are bad, just need a little more looking after than what I can provide, and who better to trust than the best ally I have, the Creator himself. He has used me in ways that I wasn't expecting already this week, which comes as a surprise since my focus has not necessarily been starkly fixed on him.

It's a nudging reminder that he needs me to pay attention so that he can use me further, otherwise I'm a blank shell in a shotgun poised for use.

It's not as if God needs me but it is a blessing that he wants me. Oftentimes I get twisted up in deadlines and beating myself up for not finishing a paper on time or something of that nature. But if I am not ready for him then he cannot use me, so it is also a blessing that he providentially led me into situations where I could be of some use. Yet it was a subtle reminder that I could do this and more if my focus was solely where it needed to be. God likes to communicate with me in subtle ways, seems to be the way I get it most. 

Here's to another day of progress in my ever-growing awareness of who I am in Christ. 

All to God.

8 more weeks

So the much needed break is over and tomorrow starts the final 8 weeks of what has been a big part of my goal for four years. Graduation happens in 8 weeks, degree is received in 8 weeks, new way of living happens in 8 weeks. It is a countdown, by the week it gets closer and busier and crazier UNTIL..............sweet release.

My four years in college have been a mixture of many things but most of all I have been blessed to be able to receive such an education that I have. I have grown in my leadership, and in my responsibility, and mostly my appreciation and devotion to the Gospel. I have had professors encourage me in my calling to carry the Gospel throughout the world and for that I am so thankful.

These next 8 weeks are my last, I've come a long way but I have a little longer to go.

From coming in and being an RBC flame and nearly leaving a MACU mustang I can truly say I have been blessed. Soon enough there will be a new life I will transition into with new experiences that will hopefully further the Kingdom's cause and well I can't close this out without mentioning that you can click here and see a little bit of my future plans and how you can be a part of it.

Well read up, learn on, cuz we got 8 more weeks to grind our minds to a pulp, and gain from it.

With a little help from my friends

Oh how this spring break has been! It started off with a little adventure to Roanoke VA to hang out with some friends and a very wonderful fellow. Then I went from the mountains to the beach where I will live for a year before heading overseas for 12 more months. Whilst there I saw the house I will be renting and applied like a mad woman for jobs for the year. This is awesome! Things seem to be working out and I have a feeling God has his hand in it all!

All the while I will be living in that house at the beach I will be raising support for the year's stay in 2013. While I will have a job (hopefully), living and ministering in eastern Europe cannot come from a minimum wage job that must be spread out among rent, food, gas, saving for paying back loans, and whatever else might be a surprise.

To be honest....I need YOUR help

I need you to understand my needs as brothers and sisters who are confident in the mission, I need you to take an interest in the people of the world who do not yet know Christ. I simply need you to put in a word at your church, or to your friends and family. 

I'm calling on you.

Simply asking to make relationships with you and those around you for the cause of Christ.

I ask that you can be my voice in your circles, I am willing to come and explain my vision for 2013. All YOU have to do is give me a time, and a place. Also soon I will be creating some informational newsletters and things of the like. Some have responded and I am so encouraged by that! If you haven't yet shown interest in receiving these things, you are always welcome! All you have to do is drop me a line with your address or e-mail address and when these things are ready you will be sure to receive them!

Ready? Set? GO! 

Let's partner together, let's get to know each other, let's stay a while. Thank you for your prayers and support!

All to God

Many Happenings

I am starting preparations to get the word out there more that in 2013 I will be on a plane to Eastern Europe for an entire year. I am in the process of creating informational things that will help friends, family, churches, all who might be potential supporters to understand why I am going for this year and what my long-term goals are and how this journey in 2013 will benefit them.

I am most hopeful that God will prepare the hearts of those who will pray and give. If you, yes YOU would like these informational helps when they are created please find me here and e-mail me your address or e-mail address so that I can get those things to you!

Many of you have been such a huge help in the past, thank you for being so supportive in my happenings of the past two years. I praise God that you partner in ministry with me!

All to God
