You are my strength and my shield.

All my strength is in you, Lord.
All my trust is in you, Lord.
My life is totally yours.
I can’t even worship you without your help.

I love you Jesus.

He's good.

Jesus is so good.

Today Jesus did the following:

-Gave me the opportunity to feed and hang out and pray with tom, a homeless dude.
-Told me that he loved me.
-Used me to heal some kind of ovarian cancer.
-Spoke through me into other people’s lives, with words and images he showed me.
-Encouraged me through my friend’s words. (thanks rob)
-Confirmed his goodness / sense of humor with his Word, that I opened to, and seemingly randomly picked out —> (psalm 101)

So, I love him. And he loves me more than I know.

What Jesus is doing today:

The Bible says that Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today and forever.

Which means we should be able to see him doing the same things today
that he did in the Bible. For instance…

A couple weeks ago a woman came to the Wednesday night prayer meeting
at the Orchards campus of Living hope. She told the prayer team that she
needed prayer for a cyst on her ovary to be healed. They didn’t know all the details but
The team then prayed for Jesus to completely heal her.

Soon after that meeting she went to her doctor to get an MRI scan of the area
to see what was going on. The results of the scan were confusing to the doctors.
The scan came up clear; there was no cyst anymore. Fortunately there was a
nurse on duty who knew Jesus and explained to the doctors that it was Him that
healed her.

The cyst had been about the size of a “grapefruit”.

This is just one example of what Jesus is doing today.

So Jesus hooked me up with a job today.
I should be starting very soon. It’s a warehouse
job at Safelite glass company.

I’m excited for what God is doing in my life…
How He has given me good direction and made
my paths straight. How He has transformed me
by the renewing of my mind. How He has always
provided.

Thanks again Lord.

Today.

Today is the day. We’re on our way to the hospital.
My Son is about to be born. What a day today will be.

Thank you Jesus for life, and for everything that has
led us to this point.

I trust you Lord. You’ve had our backs so far,
I know you won’t let us down now.

Help me pray...

So,

I’ve been presented with an opportunity to possibly be the director of a large ministry. I would be responsible not only for the graphic design, print, and video shooting and/or directing/producing; but more importantly organizing and mobilizing large groups of people, traveling and speaking to important people in government, and being the face of the ministry pretty much…

Needless to say, this is a big thing. And not only is it big, but it carries a lot of weight with it. Spiritual weight.

As far as I know I’m being offered the director’s position of “The Defenders U.S.A.” right off the bat.  This is a ministry that is taking on the issue of sex trafficking of underage girls in the U.S. and also the pornography industry Http://www.thedefendersusa.org

I need wisdom on how I should proceed. This subject is difficult for me. I don’t think there is much of a more noble task than defending the helpless, and I would love to be a strong force in God’s Kingdom to accomplish that task…

I already have a hard time with the enemy attacking my mind when it comes to sex and stuff like that, so I know that this position would be no different. Infact I am sure that the attack would increase…as would God’s grace for me and His protection over me.

Thank you to all my friends who will stand with me in Christ.
