Wow, well it's been a whirl of awesome events that I've been a part of since the last time I wrote. I just got back from a trip to Jordan and Israel. It was amazing- the sites we saw, the friendly people, the good food- so much historical backround in those areas (and I will be posting pictures of those adventures very soon)! But the best part of course was being able to talk to dad and go to him for advice during the trip! 

On a different note: the Winter schools out here in Colorado were outstanding. I have never seen a group of young people so excited about what God is doing, and wanting to share what He's done in their lives to anyone who walks up to them! The only difference between them and other schools that have been here is;  their attitude and desire to see God more intimately, and to never stop worshiping Him! This was the cry of their hearts and even now, blazes fiercely as they continue their walk with the Lord.

After that school, I went to Cali for two weeks to visit family...and it was exactly what I needed. I was able to hang out with family, get to chat with friends, and see people I haven't seen in a year or so. And, it was very relaxing, (which, having come from a few months of going non-stop, it was very much needed, to say the least).

Now, I'm back in Colorado, ready for the next quarter...with no idea of what expectations I should hold. We started a new class, called the WISE school, and I have been blessed to be one of the six that are working with it. This particular school will be focusing on Worship, Intercession, Spiritual warfare, and Evangelism. We will have plenty of worship times and getting on our faces before God- I can't wait!

Yet, it's driving me insane. 
I can't sleep, I can't get up, I can't enjoy a solace moment without God in it. 
I am stuck in this grave, in which I die daily... but because He died, I rise in life victoriously!
It is like a give/get relationship: I give of myself in the morning, and I get, 
strength, courage, security, peace, joy, and continued.
 And it doesn't stop there! 
Wherever I go, there He has already been... and He remains there till I arrive, 
and we walk through it hand in hand. 
His presence never leaves me, His faithfulness never goes empty, His love never stops giving. 
I am His... and at once... I realize...
That only by His grace I am saved, so on my face I offer Him praise!
