The other day I had a prominent US pastor call into GFA. I got so excited because I really respect his life and heart for God. I was telling my friends, “Guess who I just talked to” and they were like “No way” and I was like “Yeah ” (Ha !I sound like a teen from CA).
I got to thinking about it later and how often do I genuinely get excited about going into the presence of God. I mean I get to talk to Him every single day and He is after all-GOD King and Creator of this entire Universe, the one who gave His His only Son for me.
So yeah, there are great men and women out there who serve the Lord, they should have our respect-But our Praise should go to God alone.

Tonight we (the School of Discipleship students) went to go evangelizing. We arrived at our destination and were turned away because a storm was coming. We did get a few tracts out before the rain hit and we all made a dash for our cars, then drove for ice cream. We all chose our flavors and then occupied two booths.
A random fact about me 🙂 Wherever I am I always stop and just watch the people or things around me taking in all that’s happening. Sort of like storing away a precious moment.
So there I was in a chair just watching everyone. They were smiling and laughing. Sharing random stories while working on their ice cream. (One pretended her straw was a dinosaur, while another pretented she was a walrus with the straw in her mouth.) It was such a beautiful picture of the body of Christ. It made me smile knowing that I had the blessing of being a part of that. Later we all watched a movie together and laughed some more.
We had gone out intending to share the gospel, then the rain came and we had to change our plans. Another thing I see so clearly through this is – God cares about the little things in our life. Even if it is just talking with friends, ice cream in hand and the rain in the background.
Yep He is Awesome!

For the past 6 months I have been asking God, “What do you want me to do after I graduate from the School of Discipleship?”
In a way it feels like Deja Vu- Back when I was 18 and graduating from high school I knew one thing, no 18 year old is at all equip to decide what their whole future is supposed to be. So I asked God a similar question to the one I posed 6 months back “What am I supposed to do with the rest of my life?”
His answer to me was “Wait”
His most recent answer has been a little different “Be still and know that I am God” (Psalm 46:10) and you know what, just like that first time, I am so at peace with His answer.
That 1st period of waiting lasted 2 years and I honestly don’t know how long this next period of waitng will be, but I know that God is going to use it!
I would so appreciate your prayers

So last night we had a worship night at a staff families house. It was great! We started off by eating as most School of Discipleship events do. Then our very own Alley led us in a few songs. After that it was open for anyone to share what God has been doing or read verses giving Him glory. I was able to share how Awesome Jesus is and how bubbly He makes me. Which is always exciting!!
It was a great night and I was so encouraged by the stories that were told and the way God is moving. It blows my mind to think that He is moving in ALL of our lives and so intricately to boot. He is truely worthy of our praise.
Thank you Jesus

Today June 15th, 2010 I have been at Gospel For Asia and School of Discipleship for 10 months. However as much as I am mentally in denile of it-this fact is true. Recently I went home and was asked to descibe what my experience has been like. I honestly cannot do credit to how truly wonderful it has been. I have learned so much and in exactly 46 days I will be going home . There is a song I recently listend to and in the chorus it says:
“Now that I have seen, I am responsible -Faith without deeds is dead”
In light of all I have exerienced and learned I now echo her words-Now that I have seen I am responsible-Responsible for living a life contrary to the world, resposible for making sure Jesus’ name is proclaimed in all the earth, responsible to be a tool of God no matter the cost, responsible to LOVE (1 cor 13), responsible to pursue God with a fire like zeal, and responsible to tell others what I now know.
This I know is considered to be crazy by some, but knowing what I know now, it would be more crazy to do nothing.
No :)…………………………… I am going to be used by God to Change the World 🙂
