Beach Bummin'

It's official. I'm going to Virginia Beach this summer on a Campus Crusade for Christ Summerproject for 12 weeks. I'm very excited for what God is doing in my life and what He's planning to happen this summer. On the VA Beach Summerproject I will be in a tight-knit community of college students praising God and spreading his Word.

The next step is raising support. It's slightly intimidating to go around asking people for money so that I can spend 12 weeks in VA Beach, but then again I'm doing God's work and He provides. It's very exciting to see how He will provide for me as far as money goes, and I'm excited to bring people an opportunity to give and see the results of that at the end of the summer. Ahh, that sounds a little selfish.

I'm very excited for this summer to see what God will be doing in my life and the lives of those around me. If you wouldn't mind keeping me, my efforts, and my ministry in your prayers I would be very appreciative. I'll keep y'all updated.

Divinely Driven

It has been quite a long time since my last post, and I have changed very much in the time elapsed. I have realized that even though I crave adventure day and night that there is no greater adventure that full submittal to the Holy Spirit.

The Holy Spirt of God is the inspiration that leads us, as followers, to things that are not possible apart from Him. Following Him is far more difficult and rewarding that any adventure that I could crave or even dream. I sit around and complain that my life is not as exciting as I would like, but not until recently did I realize that my 'adventure' is nothing on my own. My sense of adventure -- my desire -- is so unbelievably selfish. My ultimate goal should be, and is, to follow the Spirit where it leads me, and I know that when I achieve it there could be nothing more satisfying or adventurous.

On a lighter note: I may be spending my entire summer in Virginia Beach spreading God's word and growing in my faith in community with a Campus Crusade for Christ Summer Project.
