Home Sweet Home

I've been gone from home since May 22 and I just got back Wednesday (July 27) but I had a wonderful time. Being on project for 10wks was so beneficial and I've grown so much in many areas. Being there I built great relationships with the other college students and also with my co-workers at Adventure Island. I wouldn't trade that experience for anything!!!

Being apart of the Tampa Project has opened my eyes to so many things and God has been really showing me who He is and who I am in Him. The way I view my walk with Christ now is completely different from the beginning of the year and its on a new level. I now have a better understanding of what it means to follow Christ and to multiply. I've been called to labor and I now know what that means and I am excited to labor in the fall!!! I never would've thought that I would be seriously trying to reach out to other people to share the gospel with them. I've always wanted to take the safe route and keep Christ to myself but who am I to keep Him to myself. I should be sharing the good news with others and from doing that all summer I am not as afraid as I was at first.

I'M EXCITED TO SEE WHAT GOD DOES THIS FALL....

Tampa Project

So it is finally time for me to leave for Tampa tomorrow. I'm excited but I don't know what to expect from the whole experience I will receive. I know I will learn so much being there and there will be so much spiritual growth and this is what I honestly need because I have fallen too far from God. However, there will be a lot of other college students there helping each other and keeping each other accountable. So wish me luck on this challenging summer ahead of me and be PRAYING for me!! I am going to need all the prayers and support I can get! This will be a 10 week experience and hopefully I'm ready for it!

Tampa, Florida.....Here I come...#Yay

New Hair for a New Journey

 So yesterday around 12 I had my BIG CHOP. It was crazy plus I had a couple friends there with me for support! :) I thought I was going to cry as I watched my hair fall to the floor but I didn't. I was laughing and just chillin while I was sitting in the chair. I went from about 15 inches of relaxed hair to about 2 inches of natural hair. I was feeling good in the salon with all of my hair cut off but I knew the real challenge was when I walked out the door to face the world with my new look. When I left the salon I visited a couple of people and I got good feed back except for my immediate family. They didn't like it as much but I know they will just have to get use to look at me with short hair. But I'm happy and I am ready to start this new adventure with my hair!! #Yay

Now Let Me Get Up

Lately God has really been throwing some things my way and it has been great to see what He has to show me!! I've noticed that my lifestyle shows up in my relationship with Him. The way I live my life is the way I treat our relationship and the way I've been living is not good! Oneof the things God has been working on me with is my LAZINESS. I am so lazy with everything and it is showing my walk with Christ. All through my life and school I thought I could do just enough to pass or to satisfy but it doesn't work like that!! God has called me to give everything I have(Matthew 19:21). And no it's not easy but so much growth comes from it!!

 God has blessed me throughout my life but when I gave my life to Christ in January 2011, God pulled me off the path of Death and onto the path of Life.

God is so awesome and I wish everyone could understand the joy I get from knowing that God is here with me through everything. Seeking His face and not His hand is what I'm doing! #Faith
