Hi everyone,
I have decided to do a 2 month intensive Bible study and prayer time. O LORD, speak and help me to be obedient and follow Your will!

Your servant,

Wow, it has been a few months! BRING ON THE CHALLENGE!!

Hi everyone,
I am not sure if anyone is actually reading this anymore but I thought I give you an update on my life right now. I have just finished my first year at seminary and  I just turned 32. I have learned so much about the Lord over the past year, it is amazing. I have been back in the US for almost a year. One thing I have learned and have been reminded of is how perfect God's sovereignty and timing is. As many of you know, I graduated from the college at Southeastern in 2003. But in many respects  I was young in my faith and  I had a lot of growing to do in the Lord. I came to seminary almost kicking and screaming because the Lord yet again was pushing me to higher level of faith in Him. I have to trust Him with all my studies. I am so thankful for that pushing and even that discipline from the Lord. I have always taken on challenges in life. But the amazing thing is--God is the greatest challenger but with Him doing the work in me. I CANNOT DO IT WITHOUT HIM! God was saying you have the faith but now I am going to push to a whole another level of trust. You are going to be my witness in all areas of your life and you are going to conquer through me despite the physical, spiritual, and emotional challenges that are present.Yes, recultural shock was real but it isn't going to control your life and I am going to use you wherever I put you!  Sonda-me Usa-me!

Even when I was faithless, YOU ARE FAITHFUL! Ready, Set, Go! My whole life is serve You and You alone! Thanks for being within me to finish this race together! I will not grow weary in doing good but I will rise the Lord's challenge! Direct and I will follow all the days of my life and beyond! Thanks for allowing and giving me the privilege to share of your truths this semester and over this last year!

Ready for what is next!
