My life... Currently

Well, here is a little up date on my life. I am working at Iris Ministries. For those of you who don't know what Iris is, we are a ministry based in Africa founded by Rolland and Heidi Baker. It has been so much fun and incredible to see the hand of God working through the ministry. JESUS IS AMAZING! I am working at a little coffee shop also in the downtown area. It is a really interesting atmosphere to work in. You get many types of people in there all day long. Makes for interesting conversation with customers. I was planning to attend Bethel Supernatural School of Ministry this fall, but as of right now, the finances are low. God has plans for me, and whatever he is doing and has for me this year is going to be great. I was a little upset when I found out I was most likely not going to be able to go to school, but God is such a good daddy and I know he will take care of me.

I have really been going through so much. A lot of inner healing. I am really physically exhausted. I have been under an intense amount of stress, with my own life and my family. So much is going on. But something that is really amazing, is that I am able to see what God is doing instead of focusing on what he isn't. God is ONLY good. In the past, I would easily slip into depression, but this time I can totally see myself in the palm of God's hand. I have had incredible joy, and I have postured myself to have an attitude of thankfulness and to always see the goodness of God. There have been times over the past few months were I lost sight of what God was doing, but I easily changed direction and went back to "God is good". I have come to find that the biggest problem that I have had is when I try to take control of my own life and dominate the plans of God. There is a reason God is the divine designer of my life. If I was the author of my life, I would be in big trouble right now. I know he knows what he is doing, and just because is may not look like he is doing much right now, I know that behind the scenes he is doing a MIGHTY work.

I am in love with Jesus now more than ever, and my heart and longing for him only increases. It has been a struggle to find my alone time with him everyday, but it is very much needed. My quiet time with Jesus is what fuels me for my day. There is a peace that washes over me after being before him that stays with me all day.

So, that is a little update on my life...

P.S.
