My Life Statement

I desire to live to be the hands and feet of Christ. Daily, it is my focus to die to myself and take up my cross for his name. I choose to love and serve my Lord and those who were created by him. May I always live to glorify and honor God. It is my heart to do extraordinary things for my Savior. He has blessed me tremendously.

Philippians 1:21 (NLT)
"For to me, living means living for Christ, and dying is even better."

The Vision for my Life:


To be the example of real love.
Don't settle for laziness but serve past the limit of my flesh.
To be a model of maturity and stability in Christ.
Always dream.
To daily, dig deep to the root of my heart and water it with God’s presence.
To not forfeit this year to year, month to month, day to day, minute to minute, second to second battle.
Embrace the high standard of living God has called me to.
To love desperately and passionately.
To keep myself from the norm.
To carry the burdens of Jesus on my back and walk.
To live extraordinary.
To know that my existence is more than significant.
To take the harder path.
To choose to go upstream.
To shake off the grip of Satan.
To refuse comfort.
To hold onto this fear of the Lord which is beautiful.
But not to live in fear of the enemy.
To be righteous.
To see my Savior in heaven one day.




*Listening and Waiting for the Guidance of the Holy Spirit*

Oh this is always fun...right?

For me, it can be. You don't know what is coming. It is a little bit intense and suspenseful. Yet sometimes, it can get aggravating not knowing your next step. You want the comfort and security of knowing where you will be and what you will be doing. Unfortunately it doesn't always work that way with God. I would like to believe that he wants to test our faith and trust in him. Not to mention patience. Well I am going through this right now. According to my timing...I don't really have much time until I need to make a decision on some things. My clock is ticking and I have been having some serious talks with God about this. But ultimately I know that I just need to go to him in prayer and faith. He knows what is best for me and it will all work together for his good.

So what have I learned?
1) Bring my requests to God in my prayers and with fasting
2) Wait on him to respond
3) Be attentive to the Holy Spirit
4) Not to put things in my own hands
5) It is not about me
6) Pray for discernment
7) Don't act or do anything rash or in panic


Yep. ; )
