Another year down....

Another year gone...

Another year spent....

Another year worth thinking about...

Another year that I look back on and say How could I....Why did I...Where was I...and most of all...Where will I be in a year?

I spent the best part of this year loving, and learning.  And with that love that I shared, I also took for granted that was returned.  I have learned so much about myself in this time.  I have been thru 2 semesters at MATC...and now I will be starting down another path at Concordia.  My life goal has come closer than ever thought before. 

But I still wonder what could have been had I been more than I was.  Who knows.  I guess God has me right where he wants me to be, and for that I am grateful.  I want reconciliation, and to regain trust that was lost...while seeking forgiveness and respect.  Come Lord Jesus quickly...I desire your help more than ever...just whatever happens is in your hands, and I know you have the best plans in store for me and others around...I love you always!

WOW....I can't believe where this year has taken me.  From Oklahoma, to Ohio, to Detroit, to Maryland, and Wisconsin...now I am looking at going back on the road for a few months.  Who would have thought that in only a years time I would be moving like this....?

But i feel like more movement is needed....

A movement in my heart....

A movement towards something greater....

A movement FOR God....

A movement TO God....

A movement WITH God....

It's time that our generation make a move...we need Christ more now than ever in this world.  I have heard the word revival said on more than a few occasions....and I'm not talking about the all day Saturday tent revivals outside your local Baptist church....

Revival according to Miriam Webster dictionary online: an act or instance of reviving : the state of being revived: as a: renewed attention to or interest in something b: a new presentation or publication of something old

We need to get this world excited about God again....we need to tell eveyone how much he loves us...we need to do whatever it takes to get the word back in our schools, our government, our locker rooms, our coffee shops, our homes....but thats where it has to start....the homes.  Now is our time to shine....now is when God needs us the most.  Our society os heading down a path that will all but eliminate the name of Jesus from this world.  We have become so politically correct that it has become incorrect to spread the word for fear that we may insult someone.  Our schools are allowing muslim children to have their morning prayer time to mecca or whatever...but when a Christian child asks if he or she can have a moment of silence before class, not a prayer, but a moment of silence, he is condemned for it...why?....Look back in the history of our country...the greatest problems of our society...how long after prayer was taken out of the schools did the majority of the problems become a problem.  Before, yes they happened, but not to the point that they are now.  We need to take this country back....but it has to start in the home. 

Now is our time to shine on....so get to it....pray for someone, pray with someone, pray over someone, but just pray.  Pray for God to tell you where to start, where to go, what to say, how to say it....believe me...if you TRULY in your heart want God to use you, he will...
