Its 2010, its crazy thinking that I am living in that year. You read books and see movies from days past that portrayed the 2000’s as space age years. Well I don’t see many flying cars and I don’t commonly wear a space suit to work, however I do wear a suit now. So much has changed even from last year. I am amazed at where God has placed my life. I am starting my third year at the Institute in Basic Life Principles. He has placed so many people in my life that have come and passed through. I keep thinking that there couldn’t possibly be something more, but He always has more.
He allowed so much last year to happen. It seemed like my world was turned inside out and upside down while I was here. I moved out of the mailroom to the ATI department. It was so out of the water that I didn’t know what to do with myself. Talk about walking in the dark. Even while I have been up here there have been so many people that have come and gone. Each has left their mark though and has changed my life. It has caused me to work with families and invest in their lives. Imagine having to pick up the phone and call a person you’ve never met and ask them how their family is doing. Just to start off the conversation is a thrill every time. I have had the opportunity to reach out to families across the nation and even in outside the USA. Each family has the same need, they need more of Him. When you give up of yourself and let Him speak you are able to see immediate results. Doors are opened and you are able to peek in for a while to their life. Not all are like that but the ones that are, are so rewarding.
Another thing that He allowed was for me to be able to lead a Journey to the Heart. That (Journey) is what had changed my life coming up on three years ago! It was such a privilege to be used to impact young girls lives. It was one of the scariest things I think that I have had to do in my life. Having to be lead by the spirit and be open to what he wanted me to do was so awesome and humbling. Picture this-you have ten peers looking to you to inspire them. When you let them realize that they aren’t going to get that from you it does become a bit easier, the pressure is off you for a bit. I think my favorite thing was being able to listen to them and watch them come to know Him more. To be a witness to a person surrendering the things they loved was crazy amazing. I was overwhelmed by how He changed so many lives. I was opened up to another side of Him. To think that the exact ministry that I didn’t want to be apart of was the one that He used the most is so awesome.
Anyways, vivere la vita alta
