What am I doing?

So I'm writing a blog because I am digitizing. That means ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to you guys. I'm loading video into my computer... Anyhoo... I just finished reading all my crazy kids blogs. I love you guys. I receive so many comments about how we mean so much to you and how much you guys love us for all that we do for you. And I do appreciate it. Honestly it's great to hear it from time to time. We get so wrapped up in everyday life and we tend to forget what truly matters to us. Are the lives we touching really being enhanced by our teachings or is it all in vain? But the truth be told... alot of you guys have been such a greater inspiration to us. Our music would have no meaning if it weren't for the lives we are able to directly have an effect on. And more so, it inspires me because I am able to physically see that God still has the hearts of youth who truly love him and know what salvation means. To see you guys excited about going to another country to do God's work pushes me to that next level. To see your praise and worship be genuine in the midst of a generation where God is trying to be silenced causes my spirit to ignite. To know that the words of advice, encouragement, and love are truly being put into practice makes me feel that what I am allowing God to do in my life, in my ministry, is all worth it. As seasons in our lives begin to change, knowing that the group of youth I've had the privilege to work, worship and minister with, my inner being is calmed about moving forward with the promises that God has made to me. Your faces will forever be engraved in my corazon...

Stay Blessed,

How hard will you fight?

I've been faced with one of the toughest fights of my life. In the midst of these moments, I am reminded it is a spiritual battle that my flesh would never be able to handle. When you are called into ministry, and choose to answer that call, the enemy will do ALL he can to shake your world. And part of our Christian walk is understanding that God will allow this to occur in order for us to make it through the fire. As I'm in this moment, I must choose if I will walk the path of humilty or allow my flesh to throw fits of rage. How meaningful is the ministry I've been called into? How hard will I fight for it? ....... My spirit will fight until my flesh has had it's last breath....
