SpEaK tHe WoRd LoRd

We're called and we are chosen. We all have a purpose in the church of Christ. He wants to use each one of us in every way he can. But what am I called to do???
I struggled with this question for a LONG time. I used to always sit back and just let everybody else testify and sing and shout and pray. I GOT TIRED OF THAT!!!! I used to be wayyyyy to shy to get up and sing because I would say I can't sing good so I don't want to make anybody sit there and suffer through the pain of hearing me sing. Then I began to get myself in the position with God that I knew I needed to be in. The bible says in Psalm "Make a joyful noise unto the Lord" Now I can't sit back in a service. I'm there early on my knees praying and anytime I'm asked to sing unless I'm gosh awful sick, I sing. I MAKE A JOYFUL NOISE!!! I can't just sit there. I have to stand up and praise the Lord. I honestly believe my calling is to sing and to help with the youth. My mission trip to the Philippines this summer really gave me boldness. If standing in front of 1000s of Filipino kids didn't make me bold then having Mr. Tebow make me sing in front of the Americans certainly did. I'm so thankful.

I believe in my last post I said something about my boyfriend being my prayer partner and helping me and keeping me strong. Well, he is no longer my boyfriend. I was so heartbroken even though I was the one that ended the relationship. As a day turned into a week and a week turned into a month, I realized that I had gotten so much stronger in the Lord. Sometimes the Lord has to take us to our lowest point to get us back where he wants us to be. Just look at Job and Samson and the Prodigal Son. I believe God had me go through this to get stronger. I don't think I've ever prayed as much as I have and I don't think the Lord has ever spoken to me as much as he has been speaking to me lately!!! JUST SPEAK THE WORD LORD!!! Thats all I ask for now. Lord just speak to me. Lead me and guide me. Show me what you would have me to do!!!!! SPEAK THE WORD LORD AND YOUR SERVANT WILL GO!!!! I'm glad that I've gotten so much closer to the Lord. Even though it took me losing the relationship with the boy that I was completely in love with. I know if it is the Lords will for us to be together then He'll put us back together in his time but if it's not his will then OHHHH WELL!!!! For now, I'm saying SPEAK THE WORD LORD!!! I'll listen, I'll go, I'll do what You want me to do!!! I'll keep falling in love with the Lord more and more each dayy!!!!!!!!! I'm glad that I'm continuing to grow spiritually!!!
Until next time, God bless all of you!!!
