I'm just so freaking ready to graduate!  Can't wait til December... then all ya'll can holla at ya boi... tha college graduate... who would have thought it?  Later

School's Out...

I got a blessing...

I went to a new church today and I recieved a blessing that I haven't recieved in a long time.  Service was great and the spirit was moving!  Anyways... I'm going to eat... I'll tell you about it later

Ok... back to tell you how it went...  For the last 4 or 5 months... my church has been going through a major division.  For those of you who don't know the devil is always busy and he has been on a working rampage of late.  My church which I've always loved b/c I've previously always felt the spirit when I was there... has been trying to do somethings for God.  We had grown to become one of the larger churches in greater little rock and things never looked better.  So when the time came to expand our building, we went to the bank, only to be denied for a loan due to a lack of collateral.  anyways the financial administration recognized a need for financial accountability in our church which meant montering where our money was going... we were bringing in too much of God's money at services to not be saving anything..  Well this accountability has been working because we have been able to save over 1 million dollars for expansion.  Well since then the church has become divided.  The devil saw the opportunity to plant a seed in some of my church members and that seed has grown...  Greed of money has caused some of our members to fight and it has gotten outright ugly...  Since all of this mess my church has been lost and it has been hard to feel the spirit working in the church.  We have been losing members and not focused on saving souls like we should have.  Anyways to make a long story short my aunt has since then changed churches and has been inviting me to come with her.  So today we went.  Well as soon as I got there I could see God working.  The service was great.  The words from God were powerful and if felt directed at me.  The minister said that you can't mess up what God has in store for you.  He spoke from Genesis 26.  In sum God told Issac not to go to Egypt but to go where I tell you to go, and I'll bless you.  So Issac waited and God told him where to go.  God blessed him.  Issac became rich with cattle and servants.  To supply the needs God gave Issac wells.  Every well that Issac dug brought forth water.  The phillistines, (who were this evil seed of the devil) kept complaining and trying to stop Issac.  Everytime they told Issac that he was on their land and that he had to move, he'd move and God would bless him again.  He gave real world examples of people on your jobs doing stuff to knock you down.    One of the other things he said that struck me is that "God can bless you better in his will, that you can in your own will!"  That struck me...  We as christians get so caught up in pleasing our flesh and trying to live out our wills for ourselves that we fail to let God work.  He mentioned being thankful and giving God what he is owed.  We complain about giving a minor 10%... God can bless us more with 90% than we can do by ourselves with 100%.  Then sunday school was powerful as well.  The teacher was talking about being caught up in earthly things.  Overall I felt the spirit and it felt really good to be bless like that.  There used to be a time that I could be going through whatever trials and when I got to church God knew exactly what needed to happen to lift my spirits.  God touched the right people to say the right things and I just always felt uplifted.  Recently my church just hasn't been doing that.  We've been so in the midst of controversy that we can't be christian brothers and sisters.  I thought for a second about whether I wanted to change my membership but I'm not sure that is what I'm going to do.  Lord, I've realized that you're will has more in store for me.  That the blessings are much greater in your plans and that I limit what you can do for me by setting my personal will ahead of yours.  Please guide me as to what your will is for me.  Maybe you need me to stay at my current church to be a seed of love for you.  Lord tell me where you want me to go.  I'm making myself availible to go where you want me.  No more excuses.  Thank you because I already know you've got this place prepared.  Anyways... Guys I love you and I really appreciate the kind words you've had.  God has again been there and supplied all of my needs.  Never has he left my side.  I just had gotten to a point where I seemed for forget where my help has been coming from.  Lord, please don't allow me to become so caught up in myself that I sit and sob about earthly troubles.  Never do my minute problems compare to you climbing on the cross for my sins.  You've already paid the ultimate price for me and everyone else.  Well I've got to run.  Love you guys and God loves you too!  Oh yeah... even though I may not know your needs and desires I've been praying that God is touching you in whatever you need.  Just continue to keep me and someone else in your prayers.  God said that whenever two or three come together in agreement, there he will be in the midst.  I'm here... won't you join me.  Let's get God all around and keep him there!
