Stretch Marks

This post is not actually going to be about stretch marks..but is about how much God is stretching me and its leaving marks. This is a good thing...but at first is hard b/c i am learning from mistakes and learning to press into HIM when i don't get a answer right when is convenient for me and HIS timing is perfect always perfect. I learning stuff about myself that i didn't know i liked, disliked, or knew about myself....Which is a cool experience. I have a lot of emotions now that everything is settling in and i am realizing i am here for awhile. Missing my mom, making friends, and balancing work and office hours and worship. In all the stuff GOD is doing i am writing and songs are coming from this and maturing is coming from all of this. GOD has been giving me these crazy dreams which are new for me. My friend kala she is the one who gets the prophetic dreams haha and now i have been getting them and its great! I love how the LORD can speak through people in many different ways its amazing! Its amazing how GOD can work through us even though we are not capable GOD is and he using us! and its b-e-a-U-ti-ful! and i love it! Keep praying for GOD to move b/c he is! Love to all

Humble

So i did the first week of GLOW for the 2-5 year old. it was great! a lot better than Sunday i really connected with the kids and God moved it was great! What i am learning right now is that you really truly have to lead them. what i mean by that is, is that i have lead doe middle school and up through adults before but now really for kids ever. With the older people you are leading them into worship right but they also no how to connect with God as well and know what worship is and what it means. With kids this is there first experience in worship and learning what it means and is. In leading kids you have to put it in a language they can understand b/c you cant say to a bunch of preschoolers OK guys we are going to start worship and start speaking in church talk cause they wont understand haha. you have to talk about it being a gift ad relate it to there lives. i am being stretched more than i thought i would ever be and its amazing! Along with being stretched i am also being humbled haha a lot. Because having to jump around doing hand motions and singing kid songs is not what i am used to hahaha but i found is so fun! and something else is the songs that i am singing with the kids means the same thing and have the same power and the songs adults do just in a way they can understand! its beautiful to watch the kids worship and i blessed to have this chance to do so. Thank you for everyone's prayers! love to all!

The first Sunday

So yesterday, Sunday, was the first Sunday i did worship for the kids. Needless to say it didnt go as planned. I was being hit with warefare for the last 3 or 4 days. Just being overwhelmed and stressed out from different situations. When i finally started it was like anything i had learned about worship went down the drain and all did was just sing and play. I was not leading haha but, its ok because it was the first Sunday. I had no idea what it was going to look like. I have only led for kids 3 or 4 times. Having to learn to talk kid talk so they can understand and hand motions i just forgot how to do all of it. Cheryl and i just had to laugh after that. I called my dad after all of it and just had him pray for me and it was great! He reminded me that its not about me and what i do or what the kids and the rest of the leaders do. It all about GOD. And i it were not for God i would not be capable of anything. So at that point i just had to lay it all down and just give it to GOD and just say it snot mine but its HIS and What HE wants to do HE will do! I have my first day of class today and i am so so excited! But some prayer that i need it just about peace and wisdom and to stay focused on GOD and that HE is KING. Thanks for the prayers, love to all!

The wonderful flight

So my flight today was at 10:30 non-rev but the flight was booked so I was not able to get one but there was another flight at 11:35 so it worked out ok. Another bonus was that I was able to fly first class so that was nice. Before I left the ATL for California I received a lot of prayer for just God to move in amazing and abundant ways and he already is including the flight. I left ATL at 11:35 and landed in DFW at about 12:45 with the connecting flight leaving at 1:20 but I made it and was able to get on that flight! But on the flight to Dallas I had an opportunity to share Gods love and word with a man named Steve. My guess he was about 46 years old he had a son that was a senior in high school a daughter my age and one that just graduated college. The convo started with him just asking why I was going to California then about worship and eventually about miracles I had seen in ATL and Vineyard and Midtown church. Steve goes to the church of the apostles off 75, its that really really big church. I was able to share about miracles and healings and he was so interested about was talking about letting the spirit move during worship and all these things it was amazing! Then started talking about how I feed homeless people and that I just have a heart for the homeless and he asked for directions to little five so that he could feed and hangout with them!!! It was amazing he was so so hungry and it was incredible to see. We talked the whole plane ride it was amazing. I am on the flight right now about an hour and half away from landing. I am pumped to see what God is going to do and how is he going to use me. Prayers are amazing right now I just need peace and wisdom. Thank you for everyone’s encouraging thoughts, love to all!
