This week has been full of experiences and growth......
Spent saturday evening at the state prison having church with the prisoners.....seeing the light in their eyes and the hunger they have for the Lord even when they spend hours everyday studying the Bible is a reality check for me.......
Sunday night I had the privilege to work with two chief musicians on arranging one of my songs....wow what a blessing. I was very nervous...but kept pushing past my shyness and what an experience to watch and work with such talented Godly men expanding what God did through me to an even greater level...(the songs I have written were never intended for other ears. They were my songs to God, but i'm learning that which I've experienced with the Lord is for others too). It required me taking my pride and humbly letting go and allowing others to take part in what God started in me.
One of our guest speakers this week Jim Anderson came and spoke as a Father restoring women to their position as daughters and restoring men to their position as men...such a word for the church body and our Fatherless generation. It hit me the reality of how it really takes a man to restore a women to her position...just understanding how God created man and women and the uniqueness of what it takes to work as a team. But both must be aligned with God and walking out their roles. Thank you Jesus i'm getting this now before I'm married.
Going through a transformation of attitude change, having healthy relationships just putting everything out there on the table establishing trust and open honesty in all areas holding nothing back. The experience of a battle buddy/accountability partner...amazing how the more I speak things in the light the easier it is to deal with it and rid it out of my life. It's true where there is light darkness must flee.....
My week is concluding with a 12 hour all night worship service.....every couple hours a new worship team comes on...praise God mine plays from 12midnight 'til 2am. That in istelf required another attitude adjustment...but knowing I'll be spending eternity worshiping God and if all I live for is God than how can I not want to partake in an all night of worship. So I"m pressing in to the realness of living out what my heart yearns and mouth speaks and putting it to action...but 1st starting with an attitude change...choosing to press in.
I'm 1/2 way done...keep me in your prayers as I finish growing and learning all God has for me here and prepare for my next season. I'm still believing for a new mac laptop as well. Thank you to those who have sent me links for discounted mac's. I'm standing in Faith for the finances.
Blessings,
Jennie

ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful journey God is taking you through. I can't wait to hear more of what God is going to do. I will be in prayer for you. Please pray for us. Marcus lost his job about a month ago. We are doing fine. Just that we will be faithful with the time off and do what he wants. Marcus myself and others who go to our Tuesday study are in the works of recording a worship C.D. Something the Lord put upon Marcus heart. So he now has time to do a whole lot since he does not have a job. Love you Jennie I miss you a whole lot. May God continue to give you strength and stretch and teach you all that is needed for what He has in-store for your next journey in serving Him and furthering the kingdom of God.
