Summer of Love and more...

My parents and i went to San Fran yesterday to The Summer of Love Tour. It was a gathering of Jesus people at Golden Gate Park to worship and interceed for the city. It was so nice to just worship God in the park with the wind blowing every which way!! We should worship outside way more often!! Well they had lots of bands leading worship and some speakers leading in prayer, it was so amazing!! Things definitely shifted in the Spirit!





Then my parents and i went to an old burger joint that we love, on El Camino Real and went to the movies near the town we used to live in. Let me just say that The Bourne Ultimatum is awesome!! If you haven't seen it already you should go soon! After the movie we drove by our old apartment building and talked about the "old days". Its crazy that we lived there 6 years ago, and i can still remember everything so clearly! Well we didn't get home till 1am but we had a blast! Its times like those, with just my parents and me, that i am going to miss this next year!


Well i hope everyone had a great weekend full of Jesus! May God bless this next week!

Straight...




The question i get asked the most is, "Have you ever straightened your hair?". I can't help but laugh when people ask me this question. Of course i have straightened my hair before, plenty of times! But the reason i don't do it that often is because i love my curls!! So here is a peek at what i look like with straight hair.

I straightened it today because i was bored. I like it but i do miss my curly locks! After i straightened my hair i could see that i really need to get it colored again and get it trimmed, bad!! Its amazing what straight hair reveals that curly hair hides! I'll let it last for two days and then i will wash it and have my curly mop back!! Hooray!:)

High School Senior Trip...






Yesterday was the senior trip to San Fran. We had a blast! Only two of us seniors went, but we had a great time! We ate at the Cheesecake Factory and went shopping around. We also took a drive around the Golden Gate Park, (what we could find of it). Riding around in San Fran in a limo with Paul driving is a very interesting thing! Lets just say i almost peed my pants because i was laughing so hard!!:) Well here are some pics! Hope you have a great day full of Jesus!!

Just Talking About Him...

I love how all we have to do is talk about the things of God and He shows up!! I got to work this morning feeling "blah" and my boss noticed it. She asked me what was wrong and i just shared with her that i have had a crummy couple of weeks and that all i really want is more of Jesus, intimacy with Him!! So we started talking about the things of the Lord and just telling testimonies of what He has done in our lives and how much fun Holy Spirit is. And the atmosphere changed! I found myself totally pumped and full of Joy!! I love how when we just talk about Him and the things He has done it changes the atmosphere. So if you are having a crummy day just remember the things that He has done for you and speak them out! Just talk about Him and He will change everything around you!!

He is faithful...

Do you ever find yourself in a place of total confusion? On a journey and you can't possibly see where you are headed. I have recently been on one of these journeys and quite frankly am still finding my way through it. But i am reminded of a dream i had a while back. I was running up these bleachers and they suddenly changed into "floating" planks of wood. They were steps but were not connected to each other. Each step had engravings on it. And they were beautiful, hand crafted. And once i came to the wood steps i was in the sky, with clouds all around me. I had been running up these stairs for so long and i was getting really tired. I stopped for a moment and thought to myself, "i am never going to get there, this staircase is never ending." The "there" i was talking about was heaven, the throne room, Jesus!! Then i heard the voice of the Lord say, "Don't you want me?" And i said, " Yes, but..." Then i realized that even though i was tired and weary i had to keep going, because i can't survive without seeing more of Him!

God i beckoning us, he is calling us and wooing us. We have to be desperate enough to push through the hardships and the pain to meet with Him. I have been in a time of confusion and a feeling of being lost in what He has for me. But i know that if i push through and persevere He will fulfill His promises. He is faithful and will not disappoint us.
