Past couple weeks have been busy and filled w/ awesome opportunities that i do not deserve. I went to Alex City a couple weeks ago for a meeting regarding their trip to New Orleans for Spring Break (April 10-14). I was surprised at the amount of people who showed up for this meeting and encouraged by their willingness to come to New Orleans to serve. Preparing and looking forward to it.
Last Monday night (January 31) i was asked to speak at a mens meeting here in New Orleans. So....i prepared for this, and even had an outline.....but didn't even get to the outline before the night was over. Was planning on talking about missions, which i did a little, but ended up talking about brokenness (Psalm 51 and Isaiah 66:2). It was an awesome night with men who love God (that was obvious). I guarantee that, even though i shared, they taught me more that night than i taught them. I saw a room full of men on their knees crying before God for their families and children. Honored to have been a part of that night.
The past week has been very busy for me. Been working every night (hornets games, photo-shoots, etc..). Blessed to have some work and be making a little income.
Tonight is iTuesday. My friends Aaron, Yessica and their kids will be here tonight. They will be leaving for Cambodia next week to live at an orphanage for the rest of this year. Looking forward to tonight! Tomorrow night, i will be going to Picayune to share with my friends there. Pumped about that! miss those guys.
In a couple weeks i will be going to Casa Bernabe (orphanage) in Guatemala. I will be there from Feb 24-March 6. David has a court date for the baby he is trying to adopt on FEB. 28. Please pray for that. I will be posting a lot of pictures while i am there.....so make sure you check back and keep praying.
On my mind lately: Sell Out
Been thinking a lot about that and what that means for me right now. Its very obvious when i read the bible, while taking it for what it is - the Truth, that Jesus calls us to a life of selling out completely for him. Every day. Every aspect of our life. Very difficult at times. I look back over the past couple years and can see those time's that i've 'sold out' for Christ and how they have been times that i will never forget.....Cause God did something amazing. Why do i not put myself in that position all the time? why does it get difficult to be obedient and sell out? becoming comfortable?
I'm going to be sharing about this tomorrow night at Picayune. Scriptures that i am going to use are: Luke 8:42-48 and Luke 9:57-62. Please pray for me and for those who will be there tomorrow night.
THANK YOU for reading this and continuing to pray for me and my friends.
blessed.
