A friend of mine asked about the bible study I was doing with Beth and I think she's going to do it too. We talked about it for a good portion of time today. It's amazing to just let the walls down and talk about God. Talk about some of the things I can see and feel Him doing. It's peaceful. It's a new feeling, and I think it's all really hitting me full force. I have always identified myself as Christian, as a follower of Christ, and I've tried my best to live up to that. This is different though. I feel completely renewed and each day makes me a little stronger in Him. I'm learning and growing every single day and I'm so thankful for that. It's nice to stand up and firmly say I am a follower ad believer of Jesus. It's refreshing going to sleep under his Grace after completing a day's worth of bible study. I'm just vibrant with hope.
To Write Love stuff is going well. I'm working on it piece by piece everyday- in between four classes and my wonderful kids. It's a busy schedule everyday, but I don't want it any other way. I'm not meant for anything else. I've got an email into Holly at To Write Love and we're going to finalize everything for the uchapter. I have to send in the last bout of paperwork and then just pray. Meet with Heather when I get to Arcadia next and just pray. Pray for strength to make this happen. Pray for insight in being the driving force. Pray for guidance from God as to the direction I'm intended to go with this. It's been amazing how everything sprouts up before you eyes. How faith can stem inside of us and give us the branches to reach our dreams. It's happening. It's all happening.
I have no idea what kind of activities we'll do, but that's a sector for the fall. I have some wonderful people on my team and I'm amazed at the power we have. We work so well together I'm just in awe. This process has been so much fun, so much learning, and I thank God for every step. Everyone who helped and walked with us, you mean the world to me. Know and remember that.
God, give me whatever it is you have next for me.
I'm praying for Fall. Praying for the doors and the amazement I'll see. Anxious for ACF which I'll find a way to get to, and the various relationships I'm hoping for. It's going to be a challenge, but that's the fun in life sometimes. This all makes so much sense to me- it seems so clear just because I know God is laying out the tapestry. No, I don't see every purpose right away, but I know that it's there. It's present and He's moving me more toward him every single moment of every day. I'm loving it. Fall means applying for the To Write Love internship. The golden chance. my dream.
Whatever happens, happens. As long as I remember the messages of God, and share them in any caliber, nothing else matters.
My friend literally just texted me and asked me to join her honors project organization, Teen Uprise. She started it at her youth group in Roxboro and is looking to bring it to Arcadia. It's a project that's dedicated to children who come from broken homes and broken promises- to help them reach their goals. Whether it's spiritual, emotional, social, academic or anything, we're meant to be a resource for them. I kid you not when I say that she just asked me to do it. Claims that I'll be perfect for the process- to teach the kids the grace of God and make them understand they're worth it. That they are beautiful and that dreams are possible.
I'm in shock. Shock of beauty and of purpose. This opportunity sounds beautiful and I cannot wait to see what God has in store for me- what happens from here. She's emailing the advisor and I should hear back in a few days. Stoked.
We're all worth it. Jesus is beyond amazing.
Glory forever.
With hope.
"I will worship you
When chains are broken
When healing is coming
When you're forgiveness floods my heart
This is my brand new start
I will worship you"
