i've had a bit of a crazy week but i've DEFINITELY learned something from it.  God is faithful through it ALL!!!  My uncle and his family arrived safely from TX and let me tell you his daughters are SOOOO beautiful.  Okay well back to my other story.  God has proven so much to me this week.  I didn't really understand the power of prayer or being saturated in the Spirit.  Prayer is probably our greatest force as Christians.  I always wondered why when I asked for something it didn't always happen.  Part of it was because I didn't need that at the time and probably because I wasn't humble in asking it.  I realized that when you become humble and broken in front of the Lord he sees it.  You can't ask for things out of selfish ambition or whathaveyou; it has to be from a "broken and contrite heart".  And I learned also that to get an answer from the Lord, you have to listen.  Not with your ears but from your heart.  God has done a work in me lately and I think I'm gonna try and do a little in return.  I think there was so much going on in the past few weeks that I realized that no person could help me here; I had to turn to God.  In fact, about 2 months ago, I was at a Gospel Lights concert at our church.  One of our family friends came up and told me that there were going to be some things in my life in the next few weeks that I would have to go to God-He had spoken to him.  Of course, my initial reaction was 'ok'...but inside my head I was thinking "How does he know what's gonna happen in my life he doesn't really know me he hardly speaks to me!"  But it looks like he was right.  OH YEAH good news.  For those of you that didn't know, our church has been looking for a pastor for a little over a year now.  Well tonight we had a vote...there were 202 people there.  198 of them voted YES for the new candidate.  It only took two thirds of the "membered" congregation to vote him in and we had a 98% positive vote!!!  I am so happy.  well i'm done now.
