Paradise in Honduras
An amazing day of blessings for the kingdom in a small village that translates to “Paradise” in English. We drove to a drop point by the river where we needed to hike 45 minutes over rivers and through the jungle. Our destination was a small school house in the mountains that did not have any electricity. The medical, dental and HPC school of Ministry interns each had a task to share the love of Christ.
The medical team saw 96 patients. The dental team pulled 48 teeth on 25 patients. The HPC interns put on a play that acted out the love of Christ to 80 school children. Even with language differences the children still understood the drama and many were impacted with the hope of Christ.
The team ended the day swimming in the river to cool off and we are looking forward to a 4×4 driving tomorrow to reach people in even more remote areas.

So,God showed Himself to be faithful again! After much stress and attempted trust in God, He provided an allout miracle. Even though the police report said I was at fault, the insurance found him 100 % at fault. My car was totaled, so they are giving me the full blue book value of the car.
So instead of having to buy a cheap car to keep my insurance down, I can now afford not only to buy my dad’s 2007 Nissan Versa, but pay the insurance on it! Praise God.

Insurance and Car
So I just found out that I’m not getting any money back from my insurance, so I’m on my own. The guy working my claim said that I only get money if there’s a third party claim. I’m not too sure what that means, except the no money part. So as of now I am borrowing a very nice little pink Sonoma from my step-dad’s dad.
Pink Truck
So I am now currently in the car shopping market. I don’t know what my insurance is going to do, but I’d imagine it’s going to go up. So much that I won’t be able to afford the insurance on a nicer car. So if you know anyone who is selling a decent to nice car about 5-9 years old for cheap, let me know. Thanks a bunch guys. Or if you feel led to pray for me, pray that someone just wants to bless me with one. 
I receive it!

Good Bye Car
So I got in a wreck this past Friday. I was going down Highland Road, got in the turn lane, and a guy pulled out in front of me. I hit the breaks and then hit him. Cop found me at fault, even though it is clearly obvious it isn’t. So be praying, I’m talking to my insurance today. My uncle, who is also in insurance said they should go after the other guy, so be praying. Here are some pics.
My car is all busted up.
Notice where my skid marks start.
Goodbye Car

Why So Serious
Ok so I’ve been thinking a lot about this lately and whether or not to post it, but I decided why not. So I’ve come to the realization that I take life too seriously. I analize everything, and have found it hard to sleep if there is some percieved big decision or something big happens throughout the course of the day. Before I thought it was just the way I am, and too an extent that is true, but I don’t really like it.
The other day me and mom were talking about something and she told me, “You only see black and white, most stuff happens in the grey.” So i’ve taken this thought on, “life is lived in the grey”. God is teaching me how to enjoy life for what it is. How to enjoy people for who they are, and not be so dang serious. In everything. Life is way too short. Not only that, I think it bothers other people, it bothers me.
I think i’m just rambling now, but the jist of it is this: I have made the decision that I am not going to be so serious. I’ve made the decision that I’m going to enjoy the little things in life. I’ve made the decision to try not to be so analytical.
Through this process, I’ve seen that some of my thoughts on some issues were way to strict, way to harsh. so yeah, I guess some of those will have to change too.
Today is a new day! Be joyful always!
peace

Hanging with my mom
So having a great time at the house just hanging with my mom. Just listening to some music, talking about life, sharing scripture and really just enjoying each other’s company. You know I don’t think I’d have been doing this three months ago on a friday night. I guess you just realize what’s important. I am extremley blessed to have an incredibly awesome family. To have four parents that love me and want the best for me. that are willing to listen to me, put up with me, and love me. To think that I took them for granted for so long. wow! So yeah, God is good!

How He loves us
So I’ve been listening to this song lately called “How He loves us”. The origional version is by a guy by the name of John McMillan or something. Kim Walker does a remake that is equally as powerful. Anyway it basically talks about, yep you got it you smart cookie, His love for us. The lyrics to this song are so powerful, aside from the depth of His love for us, there is a line that says, “and suddenly I am unaware of these afflictions eclipsed by Glory” Man that is a powerful thought, that when we enter into His presence, into His glory all of the things of life that have been afflicting us suddednly disappear behind who He is. Strong. It’s really quite humbling to think of the depth of love that He has for me, and how undeserving I am of it. Makes me want to love others with a reckless abandon and to really appreciate those I already love.
I love you Lord. You are worthy. You are sovereign. You are majestic. You are caring. You are in control. You know the plan. You want my best. You are my Lord and Saviour. You are my King. You are my portion. You are my shield. You are my rock. You are my deliverer. You are my substance. You are my healer. You are my provider, my strongtower, my hope, my future, my glory, my all in all, my everything. Have Your way. Teach me to die. Lord crucify me. Crucify my hopes, and dreams, crucify everything that is of me. Life through death. Thank you for allowing me to partake in the fellowship of your suffering.
