Leaving PA to travel to MO April 3rd!!!!!

Grace and peace to you all from our Lord Jesus Christ!  To Him be all honor, glory and praise for who He is! 

Wow....It's been a long time since I've written on here.  Alot going on, alot going to happen.  God has been revealing himself to me in ways I have never experienced.  He has provided me a place to live, a roomate, a ministry through that and so much more!  I will be attending Central Christian College of the Bible for the fall semester and going to an new awesome church !  I have never felt so loved and welcomed by a church family in my entire life!  God has made his path clear for me, worked out what seemed to be impossible opposition, and given me peace unspeakable.  Wow.  You are amazing God!  I will be moving from Pennsylvania officially April 3rd.  I hope to be out to Centralia by april 6th or 7th.  I even get to visit my uncle and cousins in Kentucky who I haven't seen in years! 

Even with all this excitement there is sorrow in my heart.  With me leaving where I have been all my life, it has seemed to strike alot of people in different ways.  People that ignore you for a while all of the sudden tell you how much you mean to them.  I know this always happens, but I really didn't think some would care that I'm running out of town.  It's been very emotional the past week seeing my Pastor, who has been my big brother more than my own would ever be, almost in tears every time he sees me.  I don't think there is anyone outside of my family that loves me as much as he does.  I am so blessed.  But at the same time it's ripping my heart out to see him upset.  Those who had forgotten about me all of the sudden care.  How precious people are to God.  I hope this reminds me to never take God's blessings for granted.  When I die I hope that people who knew me will say that I loved with abandon-with God's heart. 

Well, now that I've probably shared too much for anyone to really want to read, I need to get my packing finished.  I'm almost done!  I will have almost 2 weeks to spend with those I love without stress, Praise God. 

May God bless you all with the abundance of His heart!  May we ever long to seek Your face Jesus! 

Much love in Christ,

Lisa

You are amazing God! Indescribable, unchangeable......

Grace and peace to you all!

Our God is good as He is all the time!  He has been especially good to me recently.  Ok, brace yourself Delilah.......I have been accepted to Central Christian College of the Bible officially on friday !!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Wow.....God has been so exact in his timing (well, at least that my finite mind can see) and He has provided every step to make it possible for me to move to MO and to come out this Christmas-even down to the ride to the airport on Christmas day!  My family that didn't know I was applying took it well praise God!!  Ok, enough of the exclamation points, as they can get a little old.  I hope you read your email Delilah, I sent it almost a week ago. lol.....I hope you are doing well and I pray that God will continue to lead you and guide you in this so "new" time of your life.  Love you so much sis!  If it wasn't for God using you I never would have known about this college.  Get finding us an apartment;)  hehe......well, I'm off to worship band practice.   May the Lord remind you of his presence and love and may we be greatful for all the blessings He has bestowed upon us:) 

Much love in Christ,

Welcome all!!!

     Hi everyone!  This is my first Xanga entry.  Phew today was a loooong day and it's still not over!  I can't wait to just get accepted to CCCB and find awesome fellowship with new brothers and sisters.  Some good news is that I got my transcript updated, and the guidance councelor from my high school looked at it and said I was someone who will make it!  Even though I missed graduating honors by 2 tenths of a point, with the hard classes I took showed that I can get through it and strive to work hard.    I was so encouraged by her today.  I was starting to doubt if they were going to accept me at CCCB.  So we'll see what happens when all my paperwork is in at CCCB.  I'm so excited to start fresh and anticipating for God to do amazing things in my life.  He already has!  How much more could he show me He's in control the past couple months.  You are amazing God! 

    Delilah I miss you sis!!!  I am so siked about coming to MO and being able to room w/ my best friend.  I think God is going to bless it.   Pray for me to keep strong in believing that God has awesome stuff in store.  I can't do anything in my own strength, nor do I want to.  I have practice tonight, and truly I have too much to do today.  I'm feeling overloaded and my weekend isn't going to be any better with things to do.  Eek!  and you need to help me with my wardrobe for a wedding that was planned 2 weeks ago I have to go to!!!!!  It just happens to be saturday....AHHHH.!!!!!!!.....hehe....

Have a good day everyone and may God bless you abundantly with his love, and every good thing that comes down from the Father of lights.  Thank you Lord for delighting in your children.  To think you are singing over us is amazing. 

In Christ,

Lisa
