Identity Crisis
This week. was. so insane. To say the least really.
Its really insane how much we can convince ourselves of ANYTHING. If we turn to sin and living for other people we lose ourselves or maybe even create different personalities within ourselves.
What does the Lord see?
We have to ask Him….
God... we say YES. Yes to rest.
“Come to Me, all of you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. All of you, take up My yoke and learn from Me, because i am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for yourselves. For My yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
Matthew 11:28-30

I have no idea where to begin...
I have been trying to post at least one blog a week based off of what we learned. I only successfully have done that for the first week. Oops.
The second week of class we learned about hearing the voice of God. The biggest lesson learned there was: ask God questions. Not really the ‘why’ questions but the ‘what’ questions.
Every single person in the class had a word...
Protection
This morning during worship we had intercession for families. All the fathers stood in front and created a wall to protect this base and all the families in it and extended families too. It was SO powerful. We prayed over them and groups prayed for individual prayer requests.
To KNOW that God is the most amazing father is so great.
Also, I love and miss David Coffman quite a bit. He is a...
Mountains
I love this place.
The lecture phase is challenging.
I finally did get some mountain pictures though!
It really does do something to the verse Mark 11:23:
“I tell you the truth, if anyone says to this mountain, ‘Go, throw yourself into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart but believes that what he says will happen, it will be done for him.”
I set my heart on a pilgrimage...
This week we have learned about the character of God.
I have SO much going on in my mind right now about everything that was taught. I just went through and highlighted in my notes. I will just bullet point what I highlighted. I have a lot of pages of notes already. It is all good stuff.
“Calling”- it is a relational word. Not a vocational word.
Lasting fruit only comes out of...
OH MY GOOSEBUMPS
I got told about this at lunch today. Seriously… today has been so so so so amazing. First day of lecture was wowzie good.
Ok.ok.ok. I am getting just so excited I can barely write about it.
Okay. Jason Upton. Just go to this link and watch both videos.
SO COOL

I haven’t been to garden of the gods yet. For that I am sorry but here are some highlights from my AMAZING first weekend here.
-game night at my “one-on-one” (her name is Melissa she is part time staff and we will meet once a week. I love new mentors!)
-impromptu (kind of) jam worship session in the campus’ beautiful coffee shop called Kairos

Winter DTS '12
This is kind of short/informative post.
This is a glimpse of what this school will be like and it is AWESOME.
The title of this school for this semester is Momentum.
This is what my binder says,
“Steel in your spine. Love in your heart. Courage in your voice.”
& the verse Philippians 1:27 “Only let your manner of life be worthy of the gospel of Christ, so that whether I...
YWAM!!!
The first day.
The first day of a whole new season.
For anyone who does not know I moved to Colorado Springs, CO… yesterday. I am going to University of Nations/ Youth with a Mission to complete a discipleship training school.
I have been really debating on whether to blog through this journey on my school. I just feel like I want my support system to know how I am doing and what is...

Hilarity.
Its always funny when you spend an hour writing a blog and researching online to apply for scholarships and then weeks later you realize you didn’t send the e-mail stating your blog site. It is in your draft file… and the ‘application’ was due weeks ago.
Teehehehe.
Life has had some CRAZY turns for me these last few months.
Lets just say: The move of God is like a...

So… I have been going through quite a bit these last few months but I definitely wouldn’t change any of it.
I think that as a people we are all afraid to spend time with the Lord.
If we weren’t, then we would do it a lot more. Plus there is this bad guy in our lives named Satan that is REALLY good at distracting us.
This is a new-ish revelation that I have had lately. I,...
Right here. Right now.
One of the hardest things to do it seems is live in the present. Especially when you have regrets in your past. In high school I was judgmental and offended some people because I justified so many of my mistakes. In college I got in a downward sin spiral because I stopped trying to follow the Lord. Sometimes I just need to tell myself these things ARE THE PAST.
Things I know:
1. God is faithful...

Am I internally bleeding? Maybe.
I have been bad about this blog-ular thing. It is sad because I do have time to do it. Right now I don’t know whether to start bawling right now or wait until later.
God is so good.
God is so faithful.
He makes all things new. & the capacity His greatness is so unimaginable for us.
I will make this brief. This is the verse tonight that made me think I am internally bleeding.

Operation God Date
Welllllll.
I look back at this blog and I have really sucked at keeping up with it. In reality I have sucked with keeping up with a lot of things…. Especially my relationship with the Lord. I have been here many times before. I have ignored this many times before.
Lets just get in right in to the meat of things.
I could rationalize every single part of my walk with the Lord. I can tell...

Memorial Day
I had the best day I have had since California :)
I got up and ran 2 miles. [I was convinced that I was turning into lard on a cellular level]
Went with my parents and a group of family friends that I haven’t hung out with in forever & went to a cave/ river in Lebanon. We had so much fun. Then I went and played volleyball for 2 hours with part of that same group & met some new...
The latest
Since I last blogged I….
Went to California. It was SOOOOO amazing.
So many more pictures. If I actually start blogging like a cool kid I will definitely post more pictures.
Also I am working at a diner for the first 6 weeks of summer!

you know it has been a rough semester when:
you say (as a nursing major): “I could frickin clean your genitals right now.”
&
your roommate replies: “will you?”
shes also asking me to move her to her bed, brush her teeth, the whole nine yards.
14 daysssss
TIL CALIFORNIA.

ITS
HAPPENING. :):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):)
BY CALIFORNIA….. LETS BE REAL, WE PROBABLY MEAN MEXICO.
Substance
Haven’t blogged in quite some time anything of substance.
Substantial things have happened in my life since then.
I haven’t had much substance to my character though.
Its funny how the messes that we get ourselves into seem like such a good idea at the time. I think part of it is because we feel in control. I obviously am not in control though.

Shame
Wikipedia says: Shame is, variously, an affect, emotion, cognition, state, or condition. The roots of the word shame are thought to derive from an older word meaning to cover; as such, covering oneself, literally or figuratively, is a natural expression of shame.
It can drive you.
When it does, it is never good.
MISSION TRIP :)
I had such a good week.
Fell in absolute love with this little boy in the middle. :)
He taught me how to jerk, how to duggy, cat daddy, & pop lock and dropping it.
The Lord moved and I have a new love for the inner-city.

movie review I
My first ever post about a movie (I think..?) This is at least my first movie opinion post.
Me and my mom tend to watch dorky movies that I can’t watch with anyone else. :) This is one of them. Ramona is such a great character!!! I hope if I ever have a daughter she will be as spunky and fun as this character. Everyone in the movie had really old fashioned names which I loved. Josh...
Spring Break Decided
BSU Missions Trip
I am so excited. I am finally doing something besides working or sitting at home during Spring Break. I am going to Jacksonville, FL with 21 fellow students from school! We are going to help an organization (yes, I am too lazy to look it up and post a link or anything) The organization helps with VBS programs and with programs for those that are homeless.
I want to hear...
Once and for all.
Casting the whole of your care [all your anxieties, all your worries, all your concerns, once and for all] on Him, for He cares for you affectionately and cares about you watchfully. 1 Peter 5:7
I wonder if anyone else feels things before they get there. Like, I can sense when I am going to have a huge monumental prayer time coming on. I like it. i like it a lot.
Goodbye Phones!!!
My roommate and I gave our phones away to our friend Mark for one week. We have a lot of reasons for doing this. We feel very controlled by our phones. I know that moderation is a big deal, but I want to appreciate people more whenever I see them. I hate the fact that I am SO distracted by my phone at all times. I am not saying this couldn’t be a problem in the future but with prayer and a...

Depth Perception
Best weekend of my Spring semester thus far! Lately I have been so immensely blessed with new people in my life. I went on a leadership retreat this weekend with school called The Call. It was really interesting and I am really excited about our community service project (which I will probably post more about in detail later on whenever we get all the information together). I feel EXTREMELY tired...
Long Live Folk!!!!
This dark period of my life began whenever I spent 40 bucks to go see Sufjan Stevens. Sufjan wasn’t there!!!! Some crazy guy who had all new techno music was…. GREAT. One great artist down.
Then…. I hear a rumor (which I am still choosing not to believe) that Dallas Green’s next album will be techno-ish. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. If this is true, tons tears will be shed.
THENNNN....
grrr
tumblr is acting… dumb!
I posted a video on a link. Now it won’t let me post it on a video even though I deleted the original post. SOOOO here is the video :)

new times
I have a new semester! I am feeling incredibly challenged but I am hoping to handle this fear of.. pretty much failure, better than I have in the past. This time I will take help from the Lord and rest in His control. I do have to however push myself VERY hard academically. I am taking 20 credit hours for the first time in the same semester that I am taking pathophysiology. Mostly because I am...
