A new Journey ahead!

Hey everyone,
       I am in need of some prayer support! I have an opportunity to travel to New Haven, Connecticut this summer for a mission trip.  I could spend one week to the entire summer. However long I feel called to stay.  Some of the ideas I have right now are staying maybe a month or less. I would love to spend an entire summer, but due to work back at home this may not be possible. Currently I am working at a grocery story, and they would be flexible with my schedule but I also work as a counselor at a kids camp in town doing all of the arts and crafts. I absolutely loved this job and I could not imagine a summer not around these kids. I may split it and do half and half :) But, please join me in prayer as I try and figure out where my next journey is..

Learning to CLING

At first I gave my life to God during a time of deep grief.  I needed a reason to believe there was something bigger and stronger than the pain I was feeling. As time went on I continued in my "faith."  When times were good I praised Him. In times of pain I questioned him, yet I never truly felt the same as the night I first surrendered to Him. It seemed through the ups and downs I began to slowly drift away. It wasn't util I stepped out of my comfort zone and saw how others all around the world were worshipping the same God that I began to question my faith.  My seemingly solid faith. It seemed their priorities were every different than mine. When I struggled to go to church once a week, they managed to go every night. When we were called to open our bibles, I flipped to the table of contents while others were already finished reciting the verse.  Their commitment was far greater than mine.  Their willingness to surrender came with willing hearts. How ...

Finding my Faith

“Follow your heart”, “Just do what you think is right” are two common themes young millennials pass around today.  How many Christians do you know who show up to church on Sunday’s, after a week full of slandering words, deceitful lies or nights of partying?  Our relationship with Christ becomes merely a check off box, an act of going with the motions.   As inviting as the “Follow your heart message” is it can be devastating to our spiritual lives. Our salvation comes from our faith, not our feelings (Ephesians 2:8).  Feelings & emotions are inconsistent, continuously changing due to the tides of circumstances around us.  Before we even realize it we become victims to our own thoughts which often lead us to making ungodly, unwise, self-centered decisions.  Instead of dying to self, and surrendering daily we spend our time trying to desperately control our failings, fighting for the next fleeting pleasure. Maybe we do set a day, cup of coffee in...

Breath of Peace- in midst of Chaos

       It started out being one of those hectic, pulling out your hair kind of days. From waking up late, to my car doors being frozen to forgetting my homework at home. But, as I jumped in my car, taking the few moments I had to breath a song came on Air1.  I began to sing the lyrics,   "Hold on, when everything is shaking, stand strong when the ground is falling through. Reach out to my hand in the darkness that's holding you. I'll be your peace in the waiting. Your strength when your broken on the floor, it's all worth fighting for cuz' I will never let you go."        As the verse began to roll around for the second time, I decided not to sing, but to simply listen. How glad I am, for God has blessed me with such a simple reminder.  As I breathed in deeply, I began to thank God for all He has done in my life. I thanked Him for the days of peace, but I thanked him also for the days of such chaos that I have found to also be so ...
