What's shaken canadian bacon?


Wow, time is really flying fast now that i'm back home. It's been 3 months already since i've been home. Praise God for providing me everything I need, I have him to thank for the job I got at Kohl's department store. I don't really ENJOY it but who really LOVES work anyway? God has blessed me with this job, so I will rejoice, because now I can pay my bills and try and save some more money to do what he has called me to do. I am reminded of what God asks of us all "to do everything as unto the Lord." this INCLUDES WORK! On the better side of WORK, I've had many opportunities to share my faith and Christ's love with my fellow associates. I want to continue to take God to work with me daily, in my thoughts and actions..as well as continue to pray always and give thanks for all my circumstances!
I am still raising my support and that's been going well. It's been really exciting to share my story with people back home and to inspire others to keep chargin' in their faith. To share with my brothers and sisters in Christ the exciting life we live when we live it all for the KING! That's INCREDIBLE!
Right now, I have raised approximatly: $250 Australian dollars in monthly support and I need at least $700 Australian before i leave.
I am asking God to provide enough money before I leave so I can buy a plane ticket back to Australia. I hope to begin recieving monthly support by October 27th, 2006.
I hope to sell my car in the near future and to continue working to save more money on my own. As much as I know money isn't A PROBLEM, it is something I must consider, but to never WORRY about it. I will pray and give the burden to God. I can't believe he really wants to carry that load! what a sweet God we serve.
It's exciting to see how far God has gotten me because I love and trust Him. I will remain faithful and obedient to Him and I can't wait to see what other ways he will pour out his blessings and his grace apon me and the rest of his children.
**on to some exciting news!** I've plugged back into youth ministry with my church and i've been fellowship with my Christian friends as well. I am now co-leading a monday night small group with these wonderfully amazing young men and woman from my church. It's a youth group house group and it just blesses me to see these kids desire God in their lives. They are so passionate about everything and there is so much Godly potential. They may not know this, but their passion and their heart is really what INSPIRES ME! I love mentoring and discipling people, especially youth!
I also am about to join my own small group on Thursday nights and that will be great to re-connect with people my own age. How important is Christian Fellowship!! :) woo hoo!
alrighty...I'm signing off today with the hope that is Christ Jesus, the understanding that HIS strength will carry me through every beautiful day he has given me...what a gift life is!
GOD BLESS!
