Well its a crazy week. the youth team has been helping out with the children's ministry team with their week long event "Sports Camp." i am currently running the soccer portion of the camp. its really not a camp nothing is being taught or learned but its just a bunch of little kids running around playing what ever game is there. we wont get into all that but it has been a lot of early mornings and long days. today we went and played laser tag. it was a great time and an amazing event. tomorrow we also have an event called fast food Friday where we go to a different fast food restaurant every Friday and just hang out with any of the youth who want to come. i am so tired right now but i continue to push through. this coming Sunday i will be giving the message for the youth at our other campus. it is a smaller group of about 16 which i am happy about. i am nervous in some ways but i also consider it a great opportunity and a huge complement for only being here a couple weeks and on short notice being asked to take on this assignment. i know that God is in control and is and will be with me guiding my steps and forming my lips. right now i was given a short outline on Grace so that is most likely what i will be talking about. the other option is service. which is what Aaron the youth pastor is speaking on. we are still figuring things out.
God is so Good! He continues to bring me closer and closer to Him as i Seek Him. I continue to see His goodness and grace lived out in my own life. along with seeing the Power of His promises in my life. I continue to ask and seek a deeper relationship with him and a deeper understanding of His Presence and Power in my life. I am raising the Bar in my relationship with Him not settling for a mediocre faith. as i was reading last night and today anything we ask for in his name he will give. Have faith all!!! the same power that raised men from the dead healed the sick and entered people into his presence is the same power that lives in us through the Holy Spirit. my faith is week but i long to have faith to move mountains and have a very real and personal relationship with our Heavenly father. i have a long way to go but i believe! I am so blessed to have the friends and relationships i do in my life and i thank you for your support and encouragement and more so Thank you truly being the Body of Christ! may your lives be blessed and may the presence of our God change your life! please pray and continue to be the Body of Christ. daily we are tempted and attacked by satan, i am no different. pray for strength to over come. pray for guidance and direction for everything in my life. i no longer live for me but for God Alone.
Still Broken Still a Sinner but Redeemed and Made Whole by Gods Grace,
