Return from Honduras!!!

Well I've made it back to the United states, After much ado with the Honduran government. :) They loved me so much they wanted to keep me there... hah well not entirely true..... LONG story but basically i didn't have my visa that i filled out on the plane ride down there stapled in my passport because the official didn't do it when i got there and he didn't tell me that i needed to keep it for on the way out. So there was like 1 hour of waiting to see if I was going to make it on the plane, so it was very scary and terrifying. I did get out with like 10 minutes until final boarding call. I did get first class so that was amazing. First time ever! It was great.... I'm a spoiled Princess now ;)

Honduras was just great. It was a great trip. We really learned to go with the flow as we didn't know what was going to happen next. We had to be ready for anything. We did go and minister at a few churches and saw many healings, and got to love on the children. They are so amazing. They are so loving.... The 3 day crusade that we were going to be apart of didn't really happen so much with our doing, Heidi Baker and John and Carol Arnott who were going to be getting off a cruise to speak didn't make it because the waves were to rough for the boat to anchor, so we just did it ourselves and spoke to the pastors, and then did prophetic art for the kids. There is a real power struggle with the pastors so we weren't able to really do as much as we thought and as we wanted to because they really wanted to keep it all in there control. We had such a great team, they were so awesome. Really worked together well and we love to be around each other so that helps too ;)
Here are some pictures from the trip. I did take several pictures... It was so beautiful. :)

Here is our Hotel, it was very very nice, it was right on the water, the picture below this one shows the view from the walkway right near the pool.





This is a view from the pot-hole filled road we walked down right along the beach to get to the restaurants and shops we went to for meals and our free time :)



The sunsets were amazing. I think I got one just about every night. It was so beautiful.



And here is a picture of the whole team just before we went to the airport.



That gives you a little taste of the trip. I will hopefully get more details and maybe more pictures up soon.... I have so many to go through... :)

You are amazing.

Here's a verse that I just heard the other day that I absolutely love.
Malachai 1:11
"My name will be great among the nations, from the rising to the setting sun."

how great.... :)

A Word from the Lord #1

Obviously from my previous post life has been quite chaotic. I'm learning to find a balance with work, school, friends, and talking to my loves back home. Everything has a place, its just a matter of finding it, and being willing to sacrifice some things.
** I forgot to tell you.. I had the absolute most WONDERFUL surprise this weekend. Friday morning, Michael called me and woke me up I believe. Then about 11 o'clock or so, he called again. I saw that he was calling but couldn't answer at the time, so I just let it go to voice mail. Upon hearing this voice mail I decided that I love listening to voice-mails. Especially from Michael because they are always so sweet. He said in he message that he loved me lots and that he had a surprise for me and said for me to call him, well then he changed his mind and said well never mind I'll call you tonight. I had already told him that I had planned for two of my friends to come over and watch a movie. So the day went by and the evening came, I had dance and then my friends came over. About 9 o'clock, or so, after a lovely dinner, and half of Julie and Julia, my phone rings, and it was Michael, so I quietly answered and was like hello... I'm watching a movie... and he was like, did you get my message earlier, and I said yes!! and he said well go check your door, I want to see if it worked, and I was like what?? I immediately got butterflies in my stomach and paused the movie :) [the girls were like ohh boy, what is going on!!!] I opened the door and found a very colorful string tied around the doorknob. I told him what I saw and he said, FOLLOW IT. so I did, in the freezing cold mind you. with only socks and my comfy clothes on. All through the apt. parking lot to a brick wall that leads to the lower wall, when I couldn't pull the string any longer. I looked over the edge and there was Michael and Norma!!! It was quite the surprise! I loved it. My friends were like freaking out thinking he was going to propose.. haha. but he didn't but it was the most amazing surprise yet! p.s. I do love surprises you know!!
so continuing on to this week........
This week has been absolutely amazing. Due to personal convictions Michael and I fasted from talking this week. It didn't sound fun at first, obviously, however everything, and I mean EVERYTHING that I had a question about in my heart, has been answered. Its kind of like an "in your face" sort of answer.

Day 1: I woke up later than planned, but was off to a great start. Work was quite calm this day, alot going on but not completely overwhelming. BSSM: DANNY SILK.... Now I have to tell you that Danny Silk was already here the whole weekend. (which is why Michael and Norma decided to come this weekend and not just any ol' weekend)so he's already laid a pretty good foundation of teaching. Tonight we had an amazing time of worship and then he did a teaching. the topic: The Process of Love No joke. I was literally blown away, Bullseye #1! Exactly what I needed to hear. He went through the "process" of learning to fully love others. Because the Most Important thing I could do with my life is LOVE! Its the Heartbeat of Heaven. I can't tell you everything that I learned, I may have to write a book, but I will tell you that one of the most important things I learned this evening is the answer to this question: Why should people get married???? People should get Married because they are a LOVER. The process of becoming a lover goes from being a Servant (Dependence) to becoming a Son/Daughter :) (Independent) and then a Lover(Interdependence). Now obivously there are many points in between but maybe I'll write about that later. (Considering this is getting long)
One last nugget on this thought: at the end we broke off the orphan spirit and all that comes with that, and declared that I am secure, I am a lover and I have something to offer other people because I have strength and benefits.

The Lord is so faithful to His promises.

Sincerely,

a Beloved daughter of the King

Keep it moving....

Life just keeps on moving. I just described yesterday that I feel like I've jumped off a cliff only to realize I don't know how to fully engage the parachute, but I know that I need to so I've got to quickly learn how to activate it to land safely.
Day by day just seems to be floating by. I've been growing so much. It's kind of funny... I think back and I realize no one tells you how hard transition is going to be. I just thought well this adventure is absolutely God and went for it. Which it is totally for God and has been the best thing ever, there's just so much to learn from growing just in the midst of it that there's not much time to stop and just overlook everything and really understand how you feel and how things are going.

I just got back this weekend from MorningStar Ministries, I went with a group from Bethel Atlanta to the Outpouring services. It was wonderful. Worship was absolutely divine. Josh Baldwin lead worship and it was so great I even bought a CD!!
After getting home last night, I just had a little bit to kind of digest all that has happened and realize that I'm in the midst of some amazing things and the LORD is still faithful, He's right by my side. I don't know where I would be with out HIM. He is so so GOOD!
