The bible says, "The harvest is plenty, but the workers are few...".
It is time to rise up new leaders in the church. I'm tired of sitting in a chair and being ministered to every Wednesday and every Sunday... it's killing me. It's time for an overflow of God's mercy and grace. I am not anywhere near perfect... so for the longest time I have had the hardest time understanding the idea that I was capable of leading someone to Jesus. But God doesn't call the qualified to do His work... He QUALIFIES the CALLED! :) I am a child of God, with a great mission ahead of me. I know I am called to the mission field.... but I have never been sure where. Africa? Iran? America? Pensacola? Le'San? Northridge...?
I have trusted God in every aspect of my life... why am I just now coming to the realization that my battlefield has been set RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME. It is my everyday life... there are so many people that I see every single day that are so hungry for something. So hungry for something REAL. So hungry for something valid and TRUE. They just don't know where to find it. I am that light. God is going to use me to reach people that I never thought could be reached. I am speaking that truth over my life. I will start to allow God to take TOTAL control over my life... over my body and my mind. I give Him full authority over me.. and my family.
God, USE ME. I'm SO ready. I'm tired of being poured into. Help me pour out!! I want so much of you, Jesus, that I can't hold in ANYMORE... you HAVE to overflow into my workplace... you HAVE to overflow into my marraige... you HAVE to overflow into my family and my friendships... and to the person that skipped me in the Walmart '10 Item's or Less' checkout line with 30 things in her cart. :) lol.
I thank GOD for what He is doing with our Young Married Couple's Group.... He has HUGE plans. :) It's gonna be AWESOME!!!!

He is the potter.
You may think that I'm just fine. You may think, "How could anything even be out of line?". Well, even though I've got the lines rehearsed....a picture only paints a thousand words.
Things aren't always what they seem. Don't you realize you're only seeing part of me? There's more to me than you could ever know. I'm incomplete... and I'm undone. But I suppose, like everyone, there is so much more that's going on behind the scenes.
God, THANK YOU for making my life so beautiful. Mercy reached in and saved me. You took a woman so repulsing and turned me into something... breath-taking. I am so unworthy... and OH-SO GREATFUL.
You are all I need, Jesus.

Something Stinks?
Oh my.. I've been SO busy lately. Tonight was the first night in probably 2 weeks that I actually turned on the TV and watched it... for an hour! I know that sounds... well.... lame. But seriously, I feel like I haven't even been home long enough to turn on the TV, much less watch an entire show... Or write a blog... or Shower!? Seriously, it's been 6 days.
My laundry has managed to pile itself up (I hate when it does that.. rude.). Everything has Baxter hair on it. Speaking of HAIR, my hair is SO dry... I'm seriously gonna have to SLEEP with conditioner on it or something (don't know if that will help or hurt? But I do know I will wake up one hott, crispy mess.). OH.. and my car, considering the fact that I've practically LIVED in it for a week, is TOE UP! I'm TOTALLY getting up BRIGHT and EARLY (like noon..) and washing my car. That will make me feel a little better.
OH! On a good note (finally) I'm TOTALLY getting my hair done tomorrow! I'm gonna have to cut like, an inch or so off... but I'm staying blonde-...ish. AND Matt comes home tomorrow.. He's been at work for 2 shifts in a row.. and I'm cranky tonight because I miss him. Tomorrow (after my hair appointment, ofcourse) we are going to Orange Beach to meet up with lots of Matt's FAMILY... and FRIENDS... for FOOD... and FELLOWSHIP... and F...-ARTS? It should be a ... FUN FAMILY FUNCTION. On FRIDAY.
OH.. I gave blood on Tuesday... and something went wrong?... check it out...:.
