Thanksgiving

Sorry for not updating in awhile the computer here broke so I haven't been able to write anything. But don't worry I'm back. First I would to make clear of my statement that I made the other day about the Bible. It was brought to my attention that I didn't explain it very well. I did not mean in anyway the Bible was wrong. The Bible is truth. It is God's word so it has to be truth. I was abusing the Bible though. I was substituting the Bible for my relationship with God. I tried to explain God through the Bible which is right to some extent but God cannot fit on paper. I was making the Bible a box and was trying to fit God inside of it, which is wrong and impossible to do. Everything the Bible says about God is truth but I was limiting God to that and not thinking He is able to be anything more. So for me the Bible was a hindrance from me totally experiencing the pure relationship with God. I use it still I just gave it up for that day.

Anyway, Thanksgiving is tomorrow and my parents and my sister are coming. They'll spend Thanksgiving here and then I'll go to Galveston with them for a couple days. I've just been learning some here and spending time with God. I've been learning some Spanish too. God's also been teaching mainly about love and what it means to have unconditional and perfect love toward God first of all but especially toward others. I am nice to most people and have a love for them but it is not the same all around. I need to have the same love to someone that receives it on the streets opposed to someone that rejects and ignores it. But God desires for us to have the same perfect love toward all. So He has been teaching how to do and giving me the love for it. That's about it I guess. Maybe there will be more later. Thanks for the prayers and some specific ones for me would be to hear God's voice me clearing and able to distinguish from mine. And that the time with my family will be fruitful and blessed.

And the Beat Goes On

So I am still here with the family in Houston. I believe I will be here until God sends me off to another city. Whenever He has finished preparing me will He send me off. I am learning still and becoming more sensitive to the Spirit each day. God is good. Ever since the Spirit manifested in me I feel that my love and faith and joy and peace all have magnified and multiplied. Sometimes I feel like a hippy with all the love I have. Ha, not quite. It's good though.

But our citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ. Philippians 3:20

Do not be comfortable here on this earth. It is easy to say and very hard to act out but meditate on that. And not only that but we are waiting for our Savior to come. We need to get ourselves prepared and get others prepared as well. I want Christ to have a pure and large bride. God doesn't mind if his bride puts on some pounds, it means more to love and be with Him.

Soon and Very Soon

I have been feeling lately that I will go on to one more city and the after that I think I may return home for awhile. How soon I will come home or how long I will be there I am not sure but I do not think I will be doing this for too much longer. Try to contain all ya'll's excitement. I know ya'll want to see me. I think God has been preparing me in Houston and I will go out to another city and make use of what I have learned. I will get some battle experience and then be able to share some first hand testimonies and will have time to develop the gifts that God will have given me or has already given me. Once I get home I will be able to share with ya'll and hopefully work with ya'll so ya'll can experience the power of God not to say that you haven't but such a consistent work of power. I pray that ya'll will be consumed with God and his love for you.
