my GOD IS AWESOME!!!!!

The peace I am experiencing right now in my life despite the uncertainties of the future....priceless. Dear God, thank you for YOUR LOVE!!!

I have been doing something different lately. I was reminded a few months ago that prayer is a dialogue, not a monologue. I could not wrap my head around how to "listen" to God while praying(that would take MAD LONNNNNGG, right?)...so this week, I decided to do something different.

1)Pray (intercede on behalf of others and myself), THEN
2)Journal what has been going on with me, then
3)Ask a question, usually "where do you want me to go from here, Lord?" or "what do you want to do right now?" etc. Finally,

4)RANDOMLY open my Bible to place and whichever chapter I come across (pick the one in its entirety)... read and write down my thoughts.

Amazing. Exciting. Creative. Powerful.

I shall start sharing what God has been speaking to me starting tomorrow!! It's good to know that I am not just praying (talking and talking and talking) and not listening :). The WORD is MY LIGHT.!

My GOD IS AWESOME (a friend shared this dynamic song with me!)

STILL ALIVE!!! :)

It's been an amazing start to the new year so far!
New semester.
New outlook on life.
And new goals.

I am disappointed though that I have failed to keep up with this religiously, but things just.got.hectic. Many new testimonies of course: from last semester, to safe travels all over, etc.

Interested in doing mission work...on a cruise? (check: http://www.adventistyouth.org/cwm/)

I have the coolest people in my life. fyi. Praise God.

Isaiah 41:10

a whole new year.

This past weekend marked a whole new year since I started my whole new journey. And to sum it all up- it's been a very great and blessed journey. There were challenges and mountains to confront and climb but there is no doubt that the positives, the highlights outweigh these challenges. :) Umm, where should I start? Well, as previously stated this summer turned out to be sooooo much better than I had expected. I would've never thought. I came to grad school knowing only a handful of friends and family and I feel like I left with a family :). I am thankful for the people that God has placed in my life. I am always thankful for them. God has always place people in my life--and always the right ones. I feel so privileged to have such an amazing support group at all times. God opened so many doors and I pray that I will be able to follow through in all of them. Continue to keep me in your prayers..and I will do the same. I like this song :)
