There are so many things I could blog about, so many things that have been happening in my life, many changes that are taking place, opportunities to freak out, opportunities to strengthen my faith, people to encourage and build relationships with, environments that cause frustration, just to name a few. I've noticed my stress level limit has enlarged and with that, I need to keep a tighter reign on my tongue, like Pastor has been talking about.

I'm getting ready to move to Tennessee, for those of you who don't know: I'm going to a Christian school down there, where I know no one. "Well then why are you going!?" I feel like God had me at IUPUI for a purpose and a season. I think I have fulfilled my purpose and I feel the season has ended. The move will be a trying one, I guess you could say; so care packages and phone calls would be awesome from those of you who feel the desire. The Lord has blessed me with a really cool advisor at school, whom I met while visiting the college, but had no idea he would be my advisor. I'm taking a full load of 17-20 credits, while working about 20 hours a week. Speaking of classes, my summer history and math class are going well right now. I'm enjoying my math class (I know, you all think I'm crazy) and history class is made tolerable thanks to two "yahoos" that sit next to me.

God has been doing a lot of changing in me recently. A while back, I received two different prophecies at two different times that I had an intercessory gift...I put that on the shelf for awhile, waiting confirmation. One night at church camp as I was praying for a girl, the Lord told me to get by myself and pray. So I did and I began crying...why? I only knew it was God. During this time, He reminded me about those 2 prophecies that I had forgotten about. "Well, maybe it's time?" The next night I asked the speaker to pray for me, for confirmation and manifestation of the intercessory gift, if that's really what God had for me. Let me tell you, it was. :) I definitely felt the presence of the Holy Spirit and had a burning sensation rising up inside me. It was awe-some!! So that was a huge change in my life.

The picture is of Becca, Stephen and Kyle: a few totally hecka' (CA!) cool people. beth and i have had the chance to get to know these people pretty well. And we've been having an awesome summer!! So this is a summary of what's been going on...thank you for staying tuned. Be blessed.
