First Post From Idaho

Wow...this is it. Doing what I am called to do.
It's all surreal right now.
I feel awesome.
I feel excited.
I feel a sense of accomplishment.
I feel a sense of uncertainty...
I feel like shaking...

But God is SO GOOD!

GOD, give me the strength to continue to do this, even when I hit that brick wall...I know it is coming. Let me bounce off the wall and over it. In Jesus' name. Amen.


And I wanted to thank you to those who are reading this blog, thank you for your prayers, love, support and send-off.

God Bless you guys!

Last Blog from California

Okay, this day is kinda weird. As a good friend of mine, Tim, says "Bittersweet." I finally understand what that means...

I can't believe that it's finally here! I've been talking about this since senior year of high school and I am finally doing it after 4 years! GOD IS SO GOOD!

Well, here we go! (Off to finish packing the rest of my clothes, then off to get plenty of rest. I drive tomorrow....)

God Bless you!

It's been a while

Boy, I need to get a better handle on this blogging thing, or I am going to be scaring a lot of people when they see I haven't posted in awhile....(do I see a practical joke coming up?.......)

So, I am almost packed. Too bad I can't bring more up there, but I will survive with just the basic necessities (ie. clothes, bathroom stuff, school stuff, and a few recreational stuff (ie. scooter, skateboard, dartboard))

This is definately going to be the hardest thing I have ever done, but I know that it will also be the most spiritually rewarding. :) And I know God sustains me, so I'm going to be doing A LOT of prayer and talking to God...my grandma will think I am crazy o_O

Anyway, thanks to everyone who has and will be praying for me and my new adventure.

And YES: I AM GOING TO MISS EVERYONE FROM CALIFORNIA!!

I LOVE YOU GUYS!!

1 month

Wow, time has been flying SO fast that I haven't been able to really think about it. And my sister actually reminded me of what today is:6/9/10. I officially move to Idaho in 1 month.

I cried last night thinking about it. I have started packing a few things and I took everything off my walls near my bed. It was weird just looking at a white wall as I was trying to go to sleep. Even the Christmas lights I had as decorations are down, except for one strand of green ones still up.

I've got most of my school necessities together, and some items which will (hopefully be keeping me from getting "terminally home-sick".

It's all so crazy...

For 4 years now, I have been talking about Deaf Ministry and me going up to Idaho for school, but I cannot believe that it's all happening, and I just have 1 month left here in California.

It's just so crazy...

Father God, I pray that you give me courage to prevent me from "throwing in the towel". Father, I know it's not going to be easy. Thank you for giving me this direction in my life. In Jesus' name. Amen!

God Bless you!

Role Playing

Okay, I know this is going to be a weird post.

Lately, I have discovered the wonderful and exciting world of Role Playing, epecifically Role playing in the magical world of Harry Potter on Facebook.

Yes, this sounds weird, but it's a great creative way to meet people and share a common interest.

Random? You bet
Totally nerdy? Absolutely
A complete waste of time? Definitely not


Before I discovered this little "world" which consists of about 75 people or so, I was asking God for a creative outlet....and this came up....although probably not what most people would think this is from God, but if there are other role players who don't know Christ, who look at my page and see that I'm Christian, then that's planting a seed. :) Then I know I've done something to helping bring people to Christ.

God Bless you all!
