Comfort Zone EXit and Funeral.

Well. Last Thursday, we got a call from Kentucky that my uncle Jearl died. cry He is actually my great uncle but I loved him anyways. In fact I looked foreward to seeing him this fall on fall break because last year I didnt go to see him. Bummer. But the cool thing was that he got right with God before he died. I admit that he wasnt baptized or got the Holy Ghost (for sure he may have though) but he was as saved as one stuck in a bed could be. He got that sickness where if he moved much he would break his bones. Anyways. He thought that he was cursed forever and no-one could tell him that he could be foregiven. Well...they told him but he wouldnt believe them. But one day on his death bed he was being prayed for by his nephews and he silently prayed too and suddenly shouted Halleujahs. That whole nursing home rejoiced!!

SO...we had the funeral on Sunday and the viewing on Saturday.

And I stayed with my cousin Sarah, my uncle Mitchell and My Aunt Sharon. Sarah and me had some bonding time on Saturday night. We took pictures of us dressing up in Wal-mart, I spiked her hair into a mohawk. And then we went to bed...late.

Sunday morning came early and Sarah did not want to go to church. However...I had a plan. So I asked Sarah if her friend Hannah was going to her church (Hannahs family goes to a different Bsaptist church than my aunt). She said "Yeah" SO I had her call Hannah to pick us up.

That way I would meet hannah and SHE WOULD GO TO CHURCH.

I HATE BAPITST KENTUCKY CHURCHES. Ha. If anyone thought our church was dead...they have never been to a Kentucky Baptist Church. Only one person prays. There was no hand clapping. No hand raising...and YET PEOPLE GO THERE!!!!!!

Anyways, so we get through worship and I ask Hannah if they have a youth group. She said no so, I said...hey do you wanna have a youth discussion. YES, I did take Hannah out of the church her pastor was preaching in but it was for her good.

We talked about church things. We talked about church drama and we laughed a bit. We brought up chruch worship too. And I commented on Pentecostal worship...and Hannah agreed. In fact, we talked more and guess what. My cousin Sarah and Hannah want to go with me to church camp next year!!!!!!!!!! Halleujah! And trust me, I am gonna take em up on it. Big SmileBig Smile

 

So, I went to a baptist church and did outreach...lol...as a youth discussion leader...whoa! Talk about leaving my comfort zone.

Oh and speaking of comfort zones. Hannahs mom sang a special at church that day. Worship service was no clapping...except for a lady who played the piano. But Hannahs mom was singing an upbeat song. So I started clapping quietly. Then, I saw Sarah start quietly and Hannah next. Then we got a little louder. Next tihng you know the kids up front start clapping, then someone across the church. Pretty soon we are clapping above the pews-unashamed...and so is everyone else.

I told those girls that day about the impact we could have in one church by just clapping. I told them to think about that and apply it to their life.

Sarah had told me that she didnt go to church because it was full of jocks and preps and she did not fit in. So, I asked her and Hannah - WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT IT???

Silence.

Anyways, Hannah is hungry. Sarah knows what she needs.

And the problem is. I have to wait for Camp of maybe just HYC. But, after then...what? Are they just gonna go back to being Baptist or are they gonna change?

cry Sadly, these girls have (rightful) but bad impressions of the Pentecostals intheir area. Sarah used to attend and Hannah attends a Pentecostal school that are snobby. The teachers saw some of their students in Wal-mart who werent wearing skirts and the teachers looked right at them and turned the other way. The students were worse. I

If thats how the pentecostals (yes our kind I have been to the school too and got the same idea) treat these young ladies I am afraid theyll spiritually live from rally to rally.

Lets pray for these kids. AND getting out of your comfort Zone Pays off!

Stubborness...

Oh where to begin?

I guess I could start with last Wednesday Night (or maybe it was a couple of Wednesday Nights who knows).

I was being all carnal minded and wanted to talk to my friends after service. I had just got off a bad day ar work and just needed some all around cheerfulness to brighten my day. Then Pastor asked me to do the sign. No big deal I thought to myself...I will listen to the preaching. pray and get out and start doing the sign before we are dismissed and I'll get to talk to my friends after I get it done so that mom wont get cranky.

Service was cool. Although I was constantly being distracted with thoughts of work and wanting to talk to my friends. So, the preaching ended. I prayed. I even asked for a little extra foregiveness in case I "wasnt praying as I should then and there"...then began working on the sign.

I came in from removing the STUBBORN letters from the sign.

(Side note: never try to hurry when putting up or taking down a church sign...it always makes things worse...patience...I have learned so much patience in this ministery whether it be freezing,raining or boiling outside....or even those nice nights there will always be this one letter that sticks. Sometimes it fits into the next message in that stuckken spot....A COOL BLESSING)

When I came in -- everyone was upfront getting blessed. Well...I thought...maybe my blessing will come into play later. So I start getting the letters organized.

In the process of doing so, elder Sis Barnett comes in and acts all sweet to me. So I tried to talk with her and Sis Ramsey while doing the sign. They discussed canning tomatoes which my grandma cook used to do all the time. So, I thought YAY COMMON GROUND. But then that feeling was felt. THAT FEELING being the one where the other party talking are like "this is an A and B convo so C your way out of it". 

That did not help. I hate getting shut out of covos. As shy as I am I do enjoy talking to others and making friends. I cant stand being overlooked...THERE I SAID IT! I LIKE ATTENTION.Angry Big Smile Shades

Then back to work. Feeling a bit down with Elder Bro Barnett tells me that "the partys over" discussing my sign.

(Now where are we. Ah yes. After missing out on a blessing because I wanted to get my work done right away, then I get shut out, then I get knocked down emotionally...what more could happen?)

All my friends end up leaving while I put up the sign. I admit that I did appriciate the honking and waving but I still felt misrable. Everything that I wanted in that night was taken away.

I DO CONFESS that I asked myself "why".

Was it because of the sign? No! That was work that needed to be done.

Was it because all my friends left? Nope they have a life outside of MUAH! (Thinks of Miss Piggy).

Was it because I didnt pray...? No, I dont think that even that was the problem...

Instead I think that the issue was putting me in front of Gods Will for me.

It should read GODS WILL FOR ME.

Instead it said Me for Gods Will. Haha a play on words....POINT FOR ME!

 

Then we studyed Saul (the king) in C&C class. Which by the way, I LOVE this book we are using! Totally awesome study. I'm not even filling the workbook out at church because I wanna use it as an at home study. Anyways...it said the following in it.

 

"IF WE ONLY OBEY GOD WHEN IT FITS WITH OUR PLANS WE REALLY ARENT OBEYING GOD , BUT OUR OWN DESIRES."

WHOA. That was a toe stomper.

I was wanting my own desires over God. I was being selfish and stubborn and disobeying or rebeliing against Gods will that night. Do you know what the Bible says about that???

1 Samuel 15: 23 says:

"For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. Because thou hast rejected the word of the LORD, he hath also rejected thee from being king."

OW OW OW OW OW!

So, that was a hard lesson to swallow. But I needed to learn it. The church sign has actually been part of many life lessons I have learned. Thats why that even though the sign might be a "young persons" style ministry I dont want to give it up.Big Smile

Pray for me too. I still struggle with depression. And thats why I need friends that with surround me with love and encouragement. I always try my best to cheer up and lift up others because I believe in "do  unto others as u would have it done unto you" --- so please smile with me, talk with me, help me to feel that I REALLY do have some importance in this world......

Cool lesson though huh? I never realized the high cost of stubborness. Wink

Cheetos, Shower and...

Hello to all my blog readers.

 

If you read my title it may be weird. I put cheetos because my puppy keeps wanting me to give hime some. I put shower because I'm not sure if I want to take one right away or wait til later...will see.

Work was good today. I brought in some cd's...((and for all of you that pick on me...NO it was not ALL southern gospel. IN FACT the only one that had southern gospel was a mixed CD that I made. Big Smile))...the    CD's really helped the day go smoother. Doing Dishes to "Crucified with Christ" and some songs that I sang at camp one year was awesome! Normally I would prefer to listen to KLOVE but it dont always come in.

 

I have a few exciting things going on this week.

1. Church Tonight - youth service YAY!

2. I get to pick out a bed for my new houise on Thursday YAY!

3. I get paaaaaid on Friday. YiPPiiiEEEE!!

4. I get to finish cleaning out this houe...boo!

5. I get to MOOOOOOOOVE! Free at last!

6. I get to send out for my Next IBC Course "CHRISTOLOGY".

7. Then I have to wait for the course to arrive in the mail BOO.

8. I have to teach nursing home this week...why now? I'm trying to move...boo-hoo!

I am so thrilled about moving. On reason was made obvious to me last week. Ever since my grandma moved in, I havent had a baedroom. Its a small sacrifice for her but...it took out the oppurtunity that I normally spent with God. So the only time I really stole away to pray was right before bed. Then my Brother William (in the process of moving) decicded to sleep in the family room with me.

 

So, if I am grumpy this week it is because my God time is limited.

 

In the new house I will have my own room. I will have a desk in said room, and a closet for prayer and a radio for worship. All I need is a TV for Sermons and I'll be set!

 

Bye for now...the shower must be taken.

The House

In case some of you didnt know. More than likely my family will be moving on August 20th. We are going to move to 416 School Street. This is a corner lot with Tilden Drive. I personally am thrilled but will miss the only home that I have had 17/19 years of life. (We moved from the house next door to this one when I was about 2).

 

We got the down payment for it in the mail today. On the 20th we will finalize and the house will be ours. My Uncle Cotton is (hopefully) going to inspect the house for us on Friday!

 

Here is a link with Pictures and More info.

Keep praying for us!

5 minutes til work

Blogging has became a thing that is "harder to do" now that I have my job. But I have about five minutes before I have to leave for work so, I guess that I could blog a little. Big Smile

First thing, I sm tired. We didnt get home from taking Tiffany home until 10:18pm. Then I asked my bro to leave the family room that I sleep in by 10:30pm...but I am still tired. I was glad that Tiffany came, but I became very bored. I dont know how many times that I folded the piece of paper that is supposed to be a placemat, but it was entertaining to me.

Mom just said its time to go to work...bleh! Mondays stink! But today will be a good one...PLEASE JESUS!!Big Smile

Today at work...nothing seemed to go right. My dad said that the first two weeks at something are the hardest and I believe him. So, I ask you all to pray for my strength and that God will help me...and maybe lighten my load a bit on my job...at least for a day.

 

I am too tired to go into details but I almost broke down and screamed at the top of my lungs. Angry 

Maybe later on Tuesday I will give you more details.

Also, I will update more on the house situation. We will know by 7pm tommarrow if the people who are selling the house accepted our offer! Big Smile

Things I leanred at camp...well...some of them

Youth Camp season ended yesterday. Sadly, I didnt get to go to the last service this year. I normally enjoy that one but, when you have a FFFF Dinner and Drama to be a part of you learn to not be selfish and do the work instead of getting the joy! The joy of attending camp that is. It would have been really selfish of me to tell Crystal NO and visit the camp. For alot of people they would think it was slefish of me not going to camp. But God has showed me that there are somethings more important than attending every camp service...like the job HE blessed me with. But then again I can almost gurantee that I'm gonna tell my boss to let me off for a week of camp next year! Big Smile

 

Anyways, I enjoyed both weeks of camp that I was able to attend. The first week I was a camper. The messages were awesome. Bro Toney spoke mostly to us about keeping our identity. Like remembering who we are in Christ. One morning after he preached...either he or Bro. Bowman asked for all the youth groups to get together. Me Tiff and Amanda got together. Then I looked over and Sarah Carlisle who used to go to our church, and Sarah R. a friend of Tiffanys and mind were just standing there. I said COME ON ALREADY GET OVER HERE. And they both smiled Sarah C. was a bit reluctant but not for long and we all began to pray together it was awesome.

Then after one night service earlier during the week (which Mark Johnston did ok this year...the first night was the best though) Amanda asked me to pray with her. And I thought sure ok....but then I remembered how many times that I saw me, Tiffany and Amanda leading the church. Like a shhep dog directing the sheep. Yes, I know I just called us Dogs...so what! Anyways so maybe not leading the church (cause thats Pastors job as God works through him) but maybe we will light the path that they should take. So, I said hold on Amanda, I ran through the mob of people back to where Tiffany was sitting and I grabbed her. I told her to c'mon and pray together.

Tiffany was also reluctant -- she never likes me telling her what to do. But seeing as there was a CHANCE that it might have been a God thing...she got up.

After we prayed a while (feeling very little of the spirit moving through all of us) I felt I had to explain something to them. So, I (still holding their hand) told them, (yelling over the singing) that "something has to be done in our church, normally we are tokd that the youth need to lead us into revival but we have lost most of them. Kenzie is flying practically solo and she needs are help. Everyone else near our age might not have what we have. But today, we are called to be leaders. We got to pray more. We got to move up onto that front pew and worship. I know its not easy. But someones got to do it. I'm tired of seeing my church in a dormate condition. Were gonna have revival. Pray for revival Act upon that belief that we WILL SEE REVIVAL."

Or something like that...Big Smile

It was like I was a leader in the army. Explaining the mission we had before us. Or like the captin of the third string players of a football team when its their shot to shine cause the star players are down. I encouraged them that we could do it and pleaded with them that we MUST do it. Year after year we have came back after camp and  --- left the "camp" at the campground....NOT SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN!

So, yeah, little ol' quiet me is having to become a leader (aside from God and Pastor ok...not getting out of line here) of our small group. We invite anyone to join us. 4 people praying are better than three ya know!!!

Then the next week, I went to teen camp. Firstly, NO i did NOT get locked in the bathroom this year...except by my own latching of the door. Big Smile

But that camp was awesome. Bro McCool was phenoninal. Bro Smith taught more on things that were for the kids younger than me but, I prayed with them because I remembered what it was like to be in their shoes. He also preached on faithfulness, which I mentioned in an earlier blog!

On Tuesday night I met two girls in my dorm. One was named Christi and the other Amanda. Amanda was pretty sure that she wanted to go home early. This was her first year at camp and she loved the services but the rest of the time missed home. She reminded me of me. And look wise she reminded me of Julee...lol...cool! Amanda went to a smaller/average sized church just like mine. Hers is a little more strict on skirt length but not really. Thats about the only diff...from what she told me anyways. I could just talk to her. In fact I had to vent to her a few times throughout that week (which by the way she stayed all week long...she creditied that to me and Christi). We had some much in common. And she would help me so much. Me and her started talking about people leaving a church when things arent going exactly as they please. Then we realized together that one day, at another church they will be faced with the same problems cause all churches have stuff to overcome toghther. We are people. THE CHURCH IS MADE OF PEOPLE!!!!

So yeah, she helped me alot. Sho took on my job kinda. Here I am, supposed to be a leader and helper for her and shes doing more for me. I'll get back to her later. BTW she told me to call her Mandy. So because this blog will have yet another Amanda (weird huh) when I refer to her again she will be Mandy -- ok!

The other supervisor in my dorm was named Leela. She had a friend that attended camp with us at Conquerors camp named Amanda. Supposedly she called Brother Oliver about bringing Amanda as another supervisor. He told her just to bring her and if they needed her he'd find a place for her. Sad thing was, Amanda couldnt go home. Instead of addressing this problem right away, Amanda just stayed and was a Supervisor. This worked out fine til an Enemy of hers found out. His name was Alan or something like that. He told the heads at be and Amanda was kicked out a 12:30am. She went over and stayed with a lady in the cabin Wednesday night and Thursday she slept in Leelas car. She talked with me friday before she cleaned everything up to go.

I asked if she was ok last night. She said no that she cried nearly all night long. I guess that she thinks that God hates her. I said WHY?? Well...I had heard some sob stories before but her was by far the worst.

When she was 4 she was taken away from her parents because they were drug dealers and alcholics. She was put in foster care and was seperated fom one of her siblings. Then she went through about 4-5 foster homes because her mom...after 4 years of chances refused to turn her life around. Just last year, she met an apostolic young man. They dated and had planned to get married. But he would beat her constantly. Not out of anger but FOR FUN?? One time when she was outside of the hospital from a last beating. He ran at her, she thought for a hug, but instead he tackled her and fractured a bone in her neck area. Then she had to go to jail because one time she fought back and bit him and the judge did not think it was self defense! It was only a three day visit. But that was enough for her mom and dad (which by the way she went back to her first parents when she turned 18) to kick her out of the house.

Then in the past two months she has been raped. And most of her friends have became enemies just cause she went to jail. And she still loved they guy that sent her to jail...the one who beat her. Instead he chose an old enemy of hers and moved to Flordia with that chick, whom he also abuses.

Amanda was coming to camp cause she needed seomething. She didnt get it at the first camp. But after I heard her story, I prayed and prayed GOD PLEASE SPEAK TO HER TONIGHT. Because she kept on saying that she was ready to give up. Welll....

Friday Nights message was called give me my stufff back. Haha! God led Bro McCool through an awesome sermon. I ran her down after service and she was talking to Leela. I said "Hey Girl, how are ya" she replied "Better, not all the way there yet but MUCH better". I said "so God spoke to ya?" and she replied "yes." That almost made me wanna go run up front and worship again...but my earthly father had to work on Friday so, I figured I'd say my goodbyes and get home.

Did I mention that Amanda is learning disabled and, a senior in High School?

I want everyone here to pray for Amanda Newlin. She needs a BUNCH of God right now.

Anyways, Friday night was kinda akward to me. Bro McCool was talking about the exciting things of God! Like how powerful he was and stuff. How HE got the keys to Hell and that good stuff. I was gettin all excited too. Of course outwardly no one could tell. On every side people were leaping and shouting...and all I had was a smile on my face and whispered "Amen, C'mon Bro, thats right" But, to me...thats getting into it!

Finally he gives the call (cause he kept telling people to wait to go to the Altar) and we all start rushing up there. I struggled with weather or not I wanted to go up there...but I did...and then it got funny. It was scary for me but kinda funny to think on right noiw.

Here I am in the center of people praying, shouting, dancing and just going crazy. And I'm trying to pray amd focus in on God and not whats happening around me. So my hands are folded over my Face and I try to praise God by saying "God you are soo good" then BAM someone bumps into me. I smile and try to talk to God again -- then I get bumped from behind. No matter how hard I tried to talk to God I would get bumped, kicked stepped on...and I just wanted to praise God and start danceing. Well, telling God how good HE was wasnt working so, I started adding some phyical...and still I was getting bumped and shoved around and feeling like Iwas doin something rather wrong. So, I began to look for a way out.

I was arguing with myself about how long I would stay up there. "Should I go back" -- "No this is the last night of camp I need to be up here". While I am going crazy with the desire to praise but not getting to focus...my friend Mandy comes over to me. She cuts through crowds of people. Puts her hand on mine and lifts it up and the other on my back.

(PAUSE - there was another powerful experience earlier that week at altar call - Bro McCool was going around praying for people and I was standing and praying rather timidly and he said "never the same" and it was like a slow moving hot liquid moved from the top of my head towards my heart. The message he preached on was a revival of the heart. He said how many times we have revival in our head that happens real quick and goes away. But a revival of the heart while takes longer...lasts longer. Yeah so that was cool - BACK TO OTHER STORY)

When she does this. I thank God for her. And she stopped speaking in tounges enough to say "you cant let the devil keep your joy:". I began crying thinking of how much I wanted to dance but that I couldnt. And how much I needed my joy but it seemed unattable. I managed to get down onto my knees and she followed me. I just wept and wept. The whole camp season I had wanted to cry out to God and finally it happened. The tears were REALLY falling. And guess what I wasnt getting kicked anymore.

How Great God is. He cared enough to die on the cross and save me. He cared enough to rise again. He cared enough to give me the Holy Ghost. Then HE still cared enough about me to sen spritual guides and friends and prachers to help me when I dont know what HE's wanting me to do.

I love Jesus Yes I do...I love Jesus how bout you?

Pastor B wrote about being hungry.I'm hungry for God. I'm hungry to rejoice. I'm ready to praise and most importantly I'm hungry for more GOD in my life. There is a God sized hole in our hearts that can only be filled with HIM and how HE wills for it to be filled. I was hungry to dance that night that ended up crying. I told Him how hungry I was and I was given a taste that night. Now I hunger for more!

Look out BBurg! Look out Hungry souls...food better than manna will be coming our way...poured out from Heaven prepared espexially for us.

Along time ago I tried to write a sermon, Devil get out of Gods kitchen...still the smae though echoes in my head! Devil get out of Gods kitchen. Stop blocking the table...I wanna eat! Big Smile

Impossible is nothing

Pastor mentioned one of those all-time famous verses tonight. "With God all things are possible". It reminded me of a message Rev Micheal Ensey taught on at AYC-Chicago. It was called impossible is nothing.

Wow what a thought.

By the way...Pastor preached/taught well tonight...sadly I am the only blogger besides him that heard him preach.

Sure camp is great and all...but if you listen to the evangelists very long you cant count how many times they talk about the importance of a pastors preaching. Its pretty awesome!

To add to that...Bro Steve Smith taught on an interesting topic at camp (teen camp). He talked about faithfulness. He mentioned Yellowstone park and the geiser (sp?) called old faithful. And how that every 30-40 minutes you can expect it to erupt...and how millions go see it every year. Then he mentioned another geiser in the park that is bigger and better than Old Faithful but only delievers the goods every few years.

He connected that with our (the church) faithfulness. Faithfulness meaning to our God, our city, our church etc. He talked about how some people have the greatest voixes and talents but just show up to church every now and then and walk out when things arent going their way. Then he talked about those who are faithful to God and His service that can be counted on.

I want to be like old faithful. I want to be someone that people can count on...and more importantly that my God can count on. I know that there are others who are more talented than me but I want to use my talents to Glorify God...even if others are better.

Welp gotta go. Big Smile Have a GrEaT DaY! LeAvE a CoMmENt soMETimE!!!!

Work??

So, hows my job going? Well Its not the easiest thing that I have done. I would have to say that physically this job is the hardest of all my previous jobs. But I get paid a dollar more on the hour...which makes it better! And the people I work with are pretty nice. I actually know the director more than anyone else there -- and shes really great. Normally, I have trouble speaking to people with authority over me...but I dont with her which is really great!

They also let me bring a stool to sit on during my free time. And they said that they'd buy me a stereo too. So, that means I'll be blaring JeSuS mUsIc all day long. TOTALLY COOL!

Camp was great too.

Hopefully I can share more with you later! =)
