Well... things have been a little hectic at the moment. We finished up our second semester, with a busy week in between and now we are in an intensive course. It has been very, very busy!!! Hopefully next week it will slow down a bit as I prepare two assignments and a sermon. But with all of that being said, God is good and each day as I learn more about Him, I grow closer to Him and stronger in my faith.
I am really enjoying my field placement this semester. I am at Weetamah Corps, which is an inner city Corps. I love it there. I love building relationships with the people and I love listening to their stories and just simply being Jesus' hands and feet to them. I would have to say... God definitely has given me a passion for this area of ministry. I love talking to people. I love listening to them. I love being able to have "God"talk with each of them. I have had interesting experiences at field but God meets me at that place each time. He meets and continuously is there when I need the right words to say, or need the courage to speak up... God is there. WOW... I am just so amazed by God tonight that I cannot sleep.
Well... I am also really excited about my upcoming Summer Assignment. On June 23rd I will be heading to Regina, Saskatchewan for the summer. I cannot wait. I am placed at an inner city corps where there is Native ministries... a huge passion of mine. I feel so happy and greatful to be placed there. However, when I first realized that I was going to a city I got a little nervous. You have to remember I grew up in a community of 1000 people, then I worked in a community of 380 in complete isolation and now I have ended up in Winnipeg, a city of 750,000. I just figured I would be sent to some small town somewhere... so when I seen city I was a little nervous, I am not going to lie. But God has already taken those nervous feelings away and I am so excited... I just cannot wait. I cannot wait to hear more about my placement and what I will be doing. I cannot wait to plan sermons and plan different things that I may be responsible for and to minister in an INNER CITY. I love it. I absolutely LOVE it. It just gets my adrenline agoing!!!!!! And I see God in everything. I don't know but it is just me!
Anyway... I am also excited for other reasons as well. Tonight I booked a cruise. I have been thinking about it for a while but I finally said... I am going to do it. It is something I have always wanted to do and I am going to do it with my tax return. I am really excited. It will be great to explore God's creation and plus spend a week where I can relax, study scripture, and grow closer to HIm as I relax ona cruise and tour Comuzel, Mexico; Orco Rios, Jamaica; Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands; and than see a few seconds of Florida. I am really excited. I figured it would be a great opportunity to see the world but have somewhat of a silent retreat as well. Anyway, it didn't take much encouragement tonight for me to actually just go and book it. Really exciting times.
I praise God that I am here. I praise God that HE is continuing to equip me. I praise God that I was saved by his grace when I was 7. I hope that God will continue to use me to lead others to Him. May God bless you today!
