Snail Mail....

I'm just realizing again today, how amazing it is to send mail!! It makes me so happy to receive mail in my mailbox, but also to send people mail because its always so unexpected for the most part!!! I love it. Its a little surprise of happiness. And I LOVE surprises (note to yourself.. haha)
We started our AMT's last night at school. I can't remember exactly what AMT stands for, but I do know that MT stands for Ministry Training I believe. Its basically like electives within the General School. I'm in the Worship AMT and it was totally awesome!! We learned so much last night. It was crazy. The teacher is this amazing guy named Paul Spencer. It was so good. I'm still digesting what all I learned so I'll get back to that later.
This past Sunday we started our Outreach. It was really crazy. My outreach is Little Five Points. Its in the downtown area of Atlanta. Its apparently where 5 little roads meet. Its very eclectic. There are many different types of people down there. Many different lifestyles, there are homeless, witches, psychics and homosexuals. Just anything that you can think of they are down there. Everyone that I've told that I'm going there would tell me something different about the area, none of it was really positive, but I still didn't know what to expect. From the time we got there to the time we left I was very uncomfortable. I guess you could say I was a little intimidated. I still wasn't sure what to expect so I was just a little bogged down by all the dark spiritualness in the atmosphere. We didn't do any specific outreach then, it was more just being in the area and praying and getting and idea for what we can bring to Little5Points. As I was walking around with my group I was noticing all the trash that was just thrown everywhere. I tend to think in more practical ways, so I was thinking that one thing we could do was just to take ownership of the place and clean up around the area.
After we met, we were told to spend sometime praying this week for Little5Points and just get a vision for what we want to see happen. Last years group had a hard start. It was just hard to find a connection point with people, they did have alot of breakthrough, and at some point during the year, I'm not sure when but at some point, there was a person that had died, and they were taking him away in an ambulance to the Morgue, and the team and a couple of homeless people they had ministered to gathered around the ambulance praying, and the guy came back to life!!!
So They have raised the dead in that place. I believe they are more than ready to receive Love and Jesus in that place. For me personally I just need to align myself with the Holy Spirit and conciously and intelligently recognize Him. There are spirits that we can be affected by around us when we are there, but if we are aligned with the Spirit, those things can have no lasting affect on us. When I walk into Little5Points demons flee, because I have things things in me BIGGER than them!!! For Greater is He that is IN me, than he that is in the world!!!
I can't wait to share the testimony of things that happen in Little5Points.
Remember: The Level that you are dedicated to is the level to which you will see change!!!
