  • I feel very satisfied and almost energized from having a productive retreat meeting. I'm so excited for it! One thing at a time though.. Nicaragua first.

    I'm kind of excited. I was doing a lot of talking to God today, randomly throughout the day, and in my head. He helped me realize a lot of things about myself and I earnestly asked Him to help me break out of it. Another *ding ding*, light bulb going off moment where I'm like, "Okay, I just really need to surrender it to You. I know this. Help me. I really want this."

    I'm excited because I think God is slowly working in me, challenging me, making me step up and making me really, actually want to step up. I'm trying to give in. Trying, trying trying.I keep a list of quotes that I love and that encourage me in my walk on my Facebook page in the quotations section (of course). I haven't read it in a long time, but after I got home from PM and the retreat meeting I just felt like revisiting it.

    Here's the quote that really encouraged me and is really what I needed after God's revelation to me about my current sin or shortcomings as a follower of Christ: 

    We do not segment our lives, giving some time to God, some to our business or schooling, while keeping parts to ourselves. The idea is to live all of our lives in the presence of God, under the authority of God, and for the honor and glory of God. That is what the Christian life is all about.
    —R.C. Sproul

    I love it. Now I want to live it.

    Let's see how well that goes! lol...

    AND.. 

    I'm also excited because... I feel God calling me... to something... but I'm not sure what yet...

    ALSO..

    I think I'm starting to really, really understand and realize... as much as I love worship and singing, a life of worship is far more important than being part of the worship team. I think I always felt like since worship is my passion, the worship team would be my place. I mean I still think it is or can be, but I'm realizing it doesn't have to be. I'm happy just singing, worshiping with everyone else and I've always been happy just worshiping. It brings me true joy, no matter where I stand. If God stripped me of my vocal chords... I would be fine. I would still serve and worship. Just differently.

    Happy. Thank You for hearing me and answering me. You are my Joy. Let me never forget that.
