The Long Wait
I have to apologize for not posting in a week. I have had a lot going on personally in my life and during this past week it took a hit at me. I try not to let things like that keep me from doing work for the Lord but I just had a lot going on and I had to take a step back just for the last week to reflect on my own walk with God, seeking Him out and all that.

You know the thing I have seen over the past week is this. That in the midst of the craziness of this world where it seems like everything is going wrong God can do some pretty amazing things. I have witnessed that majorly in the past week. The cool thing is that during the midst of all that God has brought so much joy and happiness into my life. He has blessed me immensley and it can be so overwhelming at times. But it is just so amazing. God is good and He is good all of the time.

Last Tuesday we had this amazing event at our church through the Vintage group called Cultural Cafe where God worked a miracle there. Normally Vintage brings in about 500 college-age young adults. Last Tuesday we had more than 1000 people there. That is amazing and so out of this world!! Lives were changed and transformed through Christ that night and that is always such an amazing thing to see.

Then on Friday I went to the CreationFest Tour which was absolutely amazing. I got to see some amazing bands like Esterlyn, Fireflight (who were amazing!), Thousand Foot Krutch, and Kutless (who were my favorite and my favorite band!). It was such a great time to spend with Christ as well as a great time with some amazing friends!

That is one thing that God has blessed me with so hugely and that is amazing friends who are amazing! I don't know where I would be without some of them. I mean I know that I have Christ but it is also great to have people around you care about you for you and believe what you do.

So realize that in the midst of what is going on never forget to look for the great things that are around you. God works in amazing ways during the crazy and hard moments in life we just need to make ourselves open to them
