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!
