Day # 1


I kind of felt lead to collect my thoughts during this particular week. Each year, our church holds a week of fasting and prayer and each week it has been incredible the way the Lord has moved in our body both on an individual and corporate level.It has been really cool because this year, the Lord has given me a real confidence in his ability to sustain me during this week. He has done it before so why wouldn't he do it again? He is faithful. I have three midterms during this week but I am not worried because I know that this week God is going to show me that he alone is my sustainance--not food.

So it is day number one and to be honest, I am not that hungry! I know that I will be looking at this on Friday and wanting to go back to this feeling but I am really trying to treasure every moment that I feel satisfied.

I am so excited to see what God is going to do during this week! With that being said, I am excited to experiment with all sorts of liquids!

Create in us clean hearts, O God;
And sustain us in Your Holy Spirit.

Day 1: who would have thought the RAIN would follow me to Chicago?!

Well, it has been nearly 24 hours since I touched down in the windy city and let me tell you, it has been NOTHING like what I expected it to be. First off, the rain I encountered upon arriving would have seriously given Oregon rain a run for it's wet money. I kid you not, there was seriously a flash flood advisory for the evening! However, unlike Oregon, the weather was probably 75 degrees--something I was NOT used to. Luckily, I didn't have to spend too much time in the rain because my shuttle driver had arrived on time and was ready to whisk me off to my hotel in the 'burbs. *here is some free advice: when traveling to somewhere you are not familiar with like, say, CHICAGO, check to see if the airport has a shuttle service--that way you do not have to pay up the wazoo in taxi fares.  After a somewhat awkward ride in the shuttle bus,(while taking a shuttle may be the cheaper option, keep in mind that you get what you pay for. In my case, since the driver was not expect...

California, here we come...

Tomorrow morning, me and 3 of some of my favorite people will be roadtrippin' it down to the Golden State of California (specifically San Fran) for 3 days. We have no agenda really which is incredibly exciting. We see it as a ripe opportunity to be lead by the Spirit for a few days as we fellowship with people as well as enjoy each other AND God's creation. Ironically, though, it is supposed to be hotter here than it will be in San Francisco which is sort of counter-intuitive but as my dear friend Alexis says, "It's all good!"
