Umm, well where to begin writing....the Lord is so awsome. This past year I have really seen God's faithfulness. Where I have been disobedient, and unfaithful, and incosistent...The Lord has been so consistent, so loving, and merciful. What an awsome God we serve? What a loving God we serve? Who in his mercy gave his only son for our sin so that we might be cleansed and washed with the blood. That we might be redemed - payed for at a price- so that we might experience new life. I want a new life with Christ. I want realness, truth, intimacy. I thirst for the Lord.  I have been so complacent in my life. I have settled for mediocracy. WHO I am living for? Where is my passion? Where is my purpose and zeal?  Praise the Lord - I know that I am starting to get back to that place where the Lor is so real, so alive, so near. One step at a time, day by day....I know that through God's grace I am goign to get back to that place where the Lord and I were one....intimate....and I am excited about the days to come.

Well life for the past two weeks have been a struggle, a whirl wind of responsibility and reality. I am now confronted with hard pressing truth...My aunt(adopted mother) is sick...she has been diagnosed with lung cancer. The shocker is we thought the she had asthma...but come to find out she had a mass in her lung. Now that I am home and I am actually around my aunt I realize the effect of the tumor on her body, and how our lives as a family is going to change. When I first found out about Sis's epidemic I felt confused, sad, angered, and chaotic. I did not know what to do, what to think, how to respond. I just sat and cried pleading with God to make since of it for me. But I offer this post not to resolve grief but as a testimony. A testimony of Gods work in my life. Praise God, because on the second day of my uncertainity God became real, He became certain. Our dorm was hosting a worship night in our prayer room and the Holy SPirt began to do a new work in our lives. There was helaing, and renewal, freedom, and for me there was strength. In that moment God told me to trust him, becuase He is in contorl of the storm...to be still and know that He is God. At that moment I just began to release every feeling that I was holding in and God's Spirit began to become my inner peace. You see even though my AUnt is sick, that does not mean that the Lord is not with her, He is and He is using all the evil of sickness to glorify the kingdom. In this sickness God has brought my family together, has healed broken relationships, my Aunt was baptised and her relationship with Jesus is growing stronger by the second. So now instead of anger I am calm with strength, now instead of confusion I have peace, and now instead of sadness I have joy. Why should I be burdened with grief when there is so much good that is coming from this? So I thank God for what He is doing. I thank God for what He is working. I thank God for how He is using the situation to bring people closer to him. I dont understand what is to come of Sis being sick, but both her and I agree that if people come to the Lord through her weakness...Praise God...then let it be so!Amen.
