Christmas is right around the corner, which means the end of the year is shortly after and 2010 will be right at our door step. As I look back at this last week, month, year I cant help but give God praise & glory. 2009 was the turning point in my life. The year when I chose to look forward and NEVER turn back. The year I chose to give my life to God fully and follow His will. After years of being a hypocritical & luke warm Christian, I was tired & drained, yearning for more of God, to be more like Him.
So I did the DTS program here in Boston and the experience transformed my life. God brought healing to my heart & He reconciled relationships that I never thought were possible, He opened doors so that I could minister to my family and friends, He REDEEMED my life. It was 24/7 being in God's presence surrounded by other Christians who were seeking the same thing. To know God, to live a life of integrity, to bring glory to the Kingdom... to be Free.
In May Javian & I went out on the streets of Northern Ireland, England & Scotland for over a month, all day telling people about Jesus. In the summer we traveled all over the Boston area with a team of teenagers doing the same thing. And then this fall I really felt God lead me to be here at YWAM Boston full-time.
I would've never thought that this is where my God would've brought me. But thats the beauty of it all. God knows whats best for us and He leads us in the path of everlasting life. He has plans to prosper & not to harm us. & all we have to do is be willing to be lead by Him.
Not perfect just Willing... so simple ♥

Tis the Season! (Quick Thought)
Christmas Tree!! Jingle Bells!! On the 1st day of Christmas!! Fa la la la la la...!
I hear all these songs every year. Never really get sick of them since they only come around once a year. This past weekend I found a radio station that only plays Christmas music. I blasted it and danced around with Javian as we cleaned the house. There's just something about that music haha. Gets me all in the mood to give, to love and to be thankful.
I love this time of the year and although alot of Christmas has turned into cookies and milk for Santa Claus, caroling, elves and reindeer, I believe that the spirit, the REAL spirit behind Christmas still has its Christian roots.
The son of God, was given to the world to be the final sacrifice. To reconcile us back to God once and for all. How could we not be thankful for that? How could we not love God in return and want to GIVE something back to Him?
I'm really excited for this season... I'm in a very different place in my life this year, I'm looking forward to what God has for me as this year ends and the new one begins.
Until Next time... You can find me jammin' to some good old christmas tunes..
