A Faithful God...

God IS faithful.
Yet again He has proved Himself to me.
His goodness, His mercy, and His grace.
I am overwhelmed by His obvious existence.
Existing and working in me and through me.
Through others.

Connect group monday night,
It was pretty cray-ceee haha
Somehow tables were turned on me.
One of my greatest flaws was brought to the surface in front of everyone haha
It was pretty awkward but soooo good.
I went home totally enraptured by the whole ordeal.
Hannah Heiny got a word for me and prophesied over me.
It was crazy because it totally related to stuff I had gone to God about haha Then God was like 'Hey. We talked about this. Listen to Hannah. That word is for you my dear. Hahaha' Yes, God laughed at me.
Then when I got up the next morning its ALL I could think about!

I then went to worship practice.
That was nuts too lol
Soooo good!
Megan was joking about how freaked I was on stage when I thought Brittne Roy was gonna make me sing on the mic alone.
Luckily, she spared me. But I doubt it will be much longer haha
Then Han and I were talking about connect group.
She made a good point.
She said, 'Whats the point in a connect group if we're not really connecting and getting stuff brought out and worked through?'
I had no comeback for that one haha

Ahh I love God :)
And my friends.

To be honest I have lost a lot of my close relationships with friends recently.
And I was truckin it nearly alone.
I had Jynell and Kyle.
The others trickled away somehow.
Some, our relationship just changed and some are almost just gone.
And I needed God to help me out.
And the thought of going through Interns alone scared the crap out of me.
God is my sufficiency and through that He has provided the best people I know.
I really dont deserve the friends I have.
BUT GOD is good.
BUT GOD is faithful.

You ever notice how our lives are filled with so much JUNK and just lame stuff. Or we've gone through these times that just plain suck. But through all of that there is a 'But God' right after.
"I was like this, BUT GOD..."
"I almost... BUT GOD..."
"I should be [insert your JUNK time here] BUT GOD..."
He is truly a Rescuer to the helpless.
A rock in the midst of a storm.
The Faithful in our faithless.
The Redeemer in our trespasses.
The Helping Hand in our fall.
The Duster of our knees.
The Health to our sickness.
The Answer to our prayers and questions.
The Restoration in our mess.
The Power in our weakness.
The Life in our body.
The Air of our breath.
The Healing to our wounds.
The list is endless...

I AM a worship leader. [through the flow of His Spirit]
I AM a pastor. [through the love He is]
I AM a preacher. [through the anointing of His hand to my lips]
I AM a writer. [through the creativeness He has given]
I AM a restorer. [through the compassion in His eyes]
I LOVE immensely. [because He FIRST loved me]
I AM powerful. [for He lives IN me]
I AM bold. [for He has 'taught me what to say'] <---Exodus 4:10-12 Hannah's word for me :)
I AM. [because Hes called me to His purposes]

YES! :D
