Express Yourself
One of my desires is to positively affect the community and surronding circles that I live and abide in on a regular basis. There is an urgency that has been released upon the natural and spiritual world. The question is: How will we respond?
Open your mouth and speak; What are you passionate about? What gifts and talents did Father God give you? Remember that He abides in you. When you said yes to Him you instantly become one with Him. Therefore the gifts and talents that you exhibit were given to you to glorify God as well as transform the world around you. I am convinced that the "time" is now. Faith actively puruses purpose and effectively dismantles eternal failure. Without faith it is impossible to please God. We see evil all around yet have trouble accepting an invitation to a promised eternal rest. Its time to stop striving its time to rest and actively depict the Glory that God has left you to display to the world.
God did not call you out of darkness into His marvelous light to only deem you as a "spectator" He has called you to be a uncompromising leader completely firm and confident in His word. You serve a creative God who created you for a specific purpose to touch a hurting and dying world. You are chosen to be His ambassador, representative and mouthpiece!
My prayer today is that we would be about and not talk about it (talking to myself as well)! All He needs is a little faith and a willing heart! Be bold and confident and watch God turn your whole life around!

The More I Seek Him...
Ive been yearning to write a post on my Ministry page for a long time! So many amazing things have been happening in my life personally as well as with the Kingdom of God. Instead of me blabbering about random things.. I want to be intentional and sincere with what I share today.
Its amazing how our "feelings" and "emotions" can make situations appear bigger than what they really are. For the last two months the Lord has been taking me through a "love" journey. Last year I remember asking the Lord for "Love at 25". Ive always been mesmirized with the number 25 :) I remember telling people "Im officially a quarter of century old" people would look at me and laugh..epecially the older people.Well, as they were laughing my heavenly Father heard my plea consciously and uncounciously. Let me just say that when you sincerly ask the Lord for something He is faithful to answer and reveal. So through out this year and towards the end of last year.. I kept declaring "love at 25" in my head. I really didnt know what that love was really going to look like I thought.. "wow.. the man of my dreams will come into my life" and I will fall in love. It was like I was saying "okay God, Ive been serving you the majority of my life..bring it on" lol Towards the end of last year God totally turned it around.. to where He said "Im revealing my love to you in a new and fresh way.. you will experince Eternal Love" To my joy this year has been filled with so many special suprises from Him.. He has shown me that who I am and what He has for me is of good and not of evil. He has literally revealed himself to me in such a new way.
This year has brought a lot of new personal challenges for me. He reinstated my seemingly sturdy man made foundation. I thought I had a good understanding of how He operates and works (oh was I wrong) He has been stripping away my old ideologies and views of what "love is" He is the greatest love of all. If I am ever in the place of feeling lonely, needy, depressed or angry I have learned to look up and cast my burdens upon Him. He see's and knows what I go through.. He wants to be the person I go to when I am hurt or confused. He wants to be that anchor that standard. He is the standard..whenever we lack focus or have doubt.. He is there to bring the peace and the wisdom that we need to get through it. With His phenomenal grace and mercy..I can honestly say that being 25 has been AMAZING!! He has brought me back to the basics. I remember speaking with a few of my friends and sharing with them my journey thus far.. I started to share how the popular hymn titled "Jesus Loves Me" has now took on a brand new meaning for me. Love knows how to correct and heal you. There were areas in my life.. that still needed healing. I now know that regardless of what I go through and experience my greatest peace and joy admist it all will be in me going to Him and allowing Him to heal it as He pleases. Everything He does is perfect. Trust and know that. He is what is steady and never changing. Jesus desires for each and everyone of us to be whole.. He died so that we could be made whole by and through His precious blood!
I pray that this post encouraged you, Ive come to the place where truth and transparency is the only way to go.When Jesus came to the earth He did not hide anything from the world he was made vulnerable so that we could be made whole. So that we would not be left in the dark.. so that we may stand with confidence. Im excited about my journey and the journey He has for each and everyone of you!!! Be encouraged and know that the best is yet to come!!!
I wanted to share a song that has helped me and encapsulates my year this far <3

I LOVE YOU
Lord, I truly love you..everything about you screams.. that You..(God of Creation) Loves Me. When I am with you, I am free.. life makes sense. Purpose erupts from within breaking free from the worlds temporary fix and replacing it with eternal focus.. Passion arises.. fear flees..selflessness finds it home.. weakness flees.. my heart leaps for joy.. knowing that you love me.. and that darkness and harm can knock at my door.. but not be let in.. In your presence their is life.. and fullness of joy. True identity is discovered.. insecurity is no more.. you are my safe haven.. a place to lay my head.. a safe place to heal... a safe place to be restored. My life is yours.. I belong to you. All you ask of me is to Rest.. and know that you are God. Anything and everything that resists that fact.. is trying to surpass your written word.. for you said that you will never leave me nor forsake me. Open up the floodgates of your love Lord.. again so that I can be flooded once again with your mercy and love.. You are never selfish.. always giving.. always replensihing. Life in you is endless.. You are patient and kind.. never rushing.. always embracing.
