it's been a while since my last post. i unfortunately don't even know. Today starts a new direction in my life. I have been asked to start up a youth ministry within the church i am now a member. I am excited on the one hand a very nervous. Please pray for this exciting time in my life as i seek the Lord's direction for the youth of Marin City.
God is so good to place this task before me. I hope i am faithful to complete my small part of the process.
Hope everyone has a wonderful day!

REST
The song by Shane and Shane In You was what I woke to. Here is the chorus:
"In YouI find my rest.In YouI find my death.In YouI find my all and my emptiness,Somehow it all makes sense."
Very interesting point for me is that I only woke up to the part where it says "In you I find my rest." Am I resting in God's Word and on him daily?? I have to say no. I fail everyday. I struggle with this everyday. Resting in the Word and on Him for strength for the day that I know only He can give to me.
I am not a perfect person and I know that! Somehow it does make sense that God knows exactly what I need for the day and what I need to do is follow that without hesitation and with joy!
Hope you have a wonderful day and let me know how I can be a help to you.

About Time
Well....Since my last post in July i thought about writing something that has been on my mind, also to start in a sense journaling some things.
"because he worked for the good of his people and spoke up for the welfare of all the Jews." This is from Esther 10 regarding Mordecai. I have been in the book and just finished it this morning. This is the last sentence of the book. He was held in high esteem becasue of the work he did for others.
Just imagine if we did this?? What would that even look like? It is interesting to me to see how God shapes his people. My this be our prayer that people see Christ in us by the work for good and the way we speak for the welfare of all people.
I am starting this venture to work for good and speak for the people. Hopefully my labor will be fruitful and kingdom shaping.
Today the song in which i started singing when i woke up this morning was a song by Ross King: GREAT IS YOUR LOVE. " I will praise you oh lord my God, with all of my heart, I will Glorify your name forever! Great is your, love to me, you have delivered me!"
How good and pleasant it is to start the day off with this and then read in His word how he delivered his people from annihilation from Haman.
Have a wonderful day, and my hope is that I will be able to write a new insight into my life tomorrow.
