Picture narrative coming soon!

It's been a few weeks now since we started our winter quarter here at YWAM Denver, and we're now getting into the flow of it all. It takes a few weeks to get past the learning and planning and get into the real fun...which we are getting into now.

We have begun our weekly outreaches and God is already proving to be, well, GOD. He's restoring and healing and this is just the beginning.

So, in addition to my weekly update from life(which I apologize for not having up the last few weeks), I will add a picture or two with a few descriptive words(or a short story) about each one.

This will hopefully give you a clearer perspective on the reality of all that's going on over here. And if there is a picture or story you would like to know more about, or maybe would like to comment on another post, feel free to e-mail me at: newbychrist@gmail.com anytime. I will try to get back to you as soon as possible.

Thanks for following and God bless!

Misery to awe

Wow! Ok, so, the last week quite possibly couldv'e been the most miserable, yet awe-astounding thing I've ever been through. I came down with this horrible sickness that left me exhausted and questioning- I honestly questioned if I was going to die(a little extreme, I know. But at the time, it seemed liable). 

But then a great thing happened. I found myself often lying in bed at night, restless, because I had already slept all through the day. So I suddenly had all this free time(yet not really, because I was still too exhausted to leave my bed or do anything). So I had all this, confined to my bed/I'm too sick to move "free time".

Then these crazy thoughts began streaming into my mind all at once about this same time. And so my "free" time, quickly became, "intercession" time and I found myself taping into the mind of God.

.....................!

Whoa!

That's when my worst devastation turned into my favorite situation.

I wasn't praying, "God save me" anymore, but rather, "Lord, bless him". And my eyes were turned from the inside, out...literally- from myself, to others.

And let me tell you: It's a beautiful thing when you begin to see a picture the way God does! It will ruin you, but it's awesome!

All a sudden I went from viewing through the two small holes of binoculars, to this amazing panoramic epidemic of what God is doing and seeing Him do it right in front of me. It's like I see in x-ray vision now: I see the outward appearance of things, but it only frames the inward workings of God handy-work!

So yes, the Lord is good (as aways) and He's doing a great thing!

What has He done in your life lately?

And REMEMBER: God is Jealous for you and only has good things in mind for you. When will you let go of the rags you're holding on to and let Him replace them with riches that you can't fathom.
