the update 0709
July 3, 2009
figured it would be easier to just send a link as opposed to an email…
I know it’s time for this update, but how to present it to people other than myself… is a task. I have seen the Lord do SO much in the little amount of time (almost 23 weeks). I could talk about what He’s going to do, what He’s already done, what He’s done in me, what He’s done through me for others… Instead.. I’m going to tell you what I’ve seen.
I’ve seen what it is to be uprooted from a place/people you’ve come to love and be asked to go to the last place on earth I wanted to be, San Diego. (although, I’m glad He did) I’ve seen what it is to figuratively put your raft in the shallow water, be swept away into the rapids only to be dropped into the slow moving, nearly stagnant water, then back into the rapids…a continuing cycle. My walk with the Lord really took to the river the day I graduated from IWU. There’s something to be said about having no outward stability; being in a place of decision – to either spaz out and adapt a lifestyle of a compulsive worrier, or find strength in the secret place… of His presence. It took a 2 years to even understand a piece of what that meant. Since then, I’ve seen the hand of God provide in ways no human could ever provide; seen His favor fall in a way no man could ever organize; I’ve seen Him HEAR AND ACT with haste to change the situation. I’ve seen Him use the mess He brought me out of to comfort others; I’ve seen Him blow away the cloud confusion, over and over again. I’ve seen His faithfulness punch out the lies surrounding my situations. By now, you’re probably like.. “ok, that’s great, but what have you been doing?”
I’ve been waiting. Until the last 2 days. Work started July 1 as the new Sports Information Director/Asst Women’s soccer coach at San Diego Christian College. I learned of how much will be going on, and how important God having my time is going to be. I have finally been released to this walk into this ministry He showed me back in February. Just like He said back when I visited, all the signs on the sign post that were pointing in different directions will suddenly all align and show you the way in unison. That time’s come. Things are picking up in a great way. There’s much more to be seen – big steps coming. That’s the extent of my update. Not the usual description of a day/week/months you were probably expecting, but as you’ve seen I don’t fit into molds very well.
So basically once things start truckin’ for real… you’ll hear from me again.. :)
