Jesus Was A Sacrificial Servant

Acts 9:27
27But Barnabas took him and brought him to the apostles. He told them how Saul on his journey had seen the Lord and that the Lord had spoken to him, and how in Damascus he had preached fearlessly in the name of Jesus.

Paul has got to be one of my favorites in the Bible next to the MAN!!! For multiple reasons, our many similarities in our past( Without listing them ), and then the GREAT transformation, I could probably go into detail, but that's the key points!!

This verse in Acts, has really been sticking with me ever since I read it around the time we were getting ready to leave for Padre Las Casas. (Im sure its simple, but Its also encouraging) I came across it around the 15th and then again in the airport right before boarding the plane. I have been "pondering" on it.

~Glorifying Jesus in Padre Las Casas~

God gave a TASTE of a vision He gave me while in prison about 5 years ago. AND I gotta tell ya, it was very SCRUMPTIOUS...haha!!Doin' what the Lord wants is very satisfying!!

I realize I am a slow to understanding how a lot of things work in Winning souls for Jesus!!! BUT I also have to realize that I have been transformed from the total opposite lifestyle in under a year.

Testimonies are SO powerful, way more than I ever knew!! I understood that somebody will always get something from what the GREAT LORD has done in our lives. BUT 2 "confess with our mouths" is a lot deeper than I realized.
It helps all the way around, To proclaim what Jesus has done in your life out loud, it also Tunes that Song Christ has put in your heart in the person proclaiming it, the people listening, and the teachers and encourager's that God has put in the life of the person giving the testimony.
Its basically a WIN WIN Godly situation!!


I feel I am now secure in what I felt God called me to Do...


And will move forward following the Holy Spirit....I find myself often thinkin' where I will be in about 10 years from now, where will God have me positioned in the Kingdom?? Where will I serve?

Praying for a Humble Boldness

As the team for the Dominican Republic gets closer to the departure date, I find myself praying more for things that I have never imagined I would ever be doing!! God is doing things that I never imagined impossible.

I find myself going over a vision in my head, playing it through time and time again, I guess trying to perfect it. But I believe God is telling me, This is something that is not in my control. How or why would I even think this?

I should be following the Holy Spirit!! Thanking God for these opportunities to share the things He has done in my life, Praying that if a moment does come when I am to speak on it, that He increases and I decrease!! Praying for others to see and/or hear that ONE thing Jesus created me for!! I've prayed in Jesus name to use me up, I asked for these things, and believe He is building me up for it, I'm sure I have missed many opportunities that Jesus has put right in front of me...I know I have!!

BUT....let me speak it into existence right now, when I grab ahold of these moments, WATCH OUT!!! I know what Jesus did on the cross, I know what Jesus did in many lives that were just like mine if not worse, and I'm raging inside with passion...I won't be ignorant in the WORD forever, I WILL accomplish what Jesus needs me to, to be the servant He has called me to be!!

And Jesus will get all the Glory!! I can only hope and pray that I glorify Him the way He deserves!!
