Brian's Farm

Brian...I really really really times 1,000,000 love your farm! Thanks for inviting Tim, Bethany and I to spend the night. It was such an awsome time...loved the campfire, endless smores, eating one and a half hamburgers, swimming in the lake out to the island and homemade waffles with icecream and strawberries!!Good times, good memories. Lets do it again sometime soon:)


On another note.... listening to Switchfoots 'This Is Your LIfe'....flippin good song!

my heart hurts so much right now.

Oh Bono!

"Even though I'm a believer, I still find it really hard to be around other believers. They make me nervious, they make me twitch. I sorta watch my back. Except when I'm with the black church. I feel relaxed, feel at home; my kids...I can take them there; there's singing, there's music."

he is so good...

thanks Becca

God's heart toward you(women):

For Zion's sake I will not keep silent,
for Jerusalem's sake I will not remain quiet,
till her righteousness shines out like the dawn [until you shimmer],
her salvation like a blazing torch.
The nations will see your righteousness,
and all kings your glory [your beauty],
you will be called by a new name
that the mouth of the Lord will bestow.
You will be a crown of splender in the Lord's hand [the crown of creation],
a royal diadem in the hand of your God.
No longer will they call you Deserted,
or name your land Desolate.
But you will be called Hephzibah [my delight is in her],
and your land Beulah [married];
for the Lord will take delight in you,
and your land will be married.
As a young man marries a maiden [he pursues her, romances her]...
as a bridegroom rejoices over his bride [you are lovely],
so will your God rejoice over you. (Isa. 62:1-5, emphasis added)

" But all who devour you will be devoured;
all your enemies will go into exile.
Those who plunder you will be plundered;
all who make spoil of you I will despoil.
But I will restore you to health and heal your wounds,"
declares the Lord,
"because you are called an outcast,
Zion for whom no one cares." (Jer. 30:16-17)

Anais Nin

"Then the time came when the risk it took
To remain tight in a bud was more painful
Than the risk it took to blossom."

Malaysia!!

YWAM Malaysia emailed me today and told me to mail in my application as soon as possible.. and that their program is filling up fast! My heart is there....just thinking about it gets me so excited:) This is what i honestly live for. Missions, overseas travel and development of third world countries! I want to live my life making a difference in the lives of these people. I want to bless them with all God has given me. He has places this on my heart. Our young adults group has started a series on 'The Dream Giver'. I can't wait to read this book! Allready, after the first session, so much has been revealed. It is helping me figure our this amazing dream I have and realize that it is possible... it is hard work and there will be a lot of ups and downs, but it is POSSIBLE... All things are possible in him. So I'm filling out the application out right now. I feel like it isn't filling out fast enough..haha. My hand is shaking even just writing answers to the questions. I'm so excited! I guess I should calm down seeing as I am not accepted yet. If he wants me there, it will happen:)

cheers, andriah

Corinthians

2nd
12: 9-10

but he said to me, " My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weakness, so that Christ's power may rest on me. That is why, for Christ's sake, I delight in weakness, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in dificulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.
