Thank you Jesus!!

So, pretty much as of Monday, November 27th I have the Admin job. There might be a few hoops I have to jump through, but for now I have it :) It's a temp to hire position, so I'm temp for 90 days, after that they can choose to hire me permanately! Woohoo! Thank you Jesus!

I'll update more later on what's going on down here in Sparks!

God is good!

Friends; old and new

Hey everyone! Hopefully I'll get to update my blog more often then I used to. It's hard to keep up.
John and Jessica are down here right now visiting. It's been fun getting to hang out with them again. It's so funny to see Kurt, Mary, John and Jess interact with each other! They crack me up!
The culture and people here in Sparks amaze me. They are so friendly! There are people here that I met a few times when I came down to visit that have just reached out and have been so great to me. I am excited to see what God has planned down here. I can't wait to help out in the Gathering and Worship team. I went to Worship practice last night with Kurt and Jessica (she's singing this week at Summit! Woohoo!!) and it was great to see it all layed out. At Summit they use wireless mics and wedge monitors. It will be interesting to get used to using a wedge again. I can't wait for the wireless mic though, so much more freedom! Another great thing is that they have a screen with a projector on the back wall, so no more music stands, woohoo!! This week there are 6 singers, plus Kurt. It's cool to see so many people on stage!
Well, I have to go for now. I am online looking for a job. PRAY FOR A JOB! Not just a job, but the right job. The job that will most utilize my abilities, be the right pay, and that the hours will be accommodating to going to school and church. I can't wait to start school!

PS: I WANT SOME COMMENTS! :) j/k

Difficult to do

Saying goodbye is so hard to do. You go through life meeting special people and one day you make a decision that affects everything. The saying "you don't know what you have until it's gone" is so true. Not that my friends and I won't be friends any longer, or that my family and I won't still be close, but the idea of not being able to get in the car and drive somewhere to meet for coffee or lunch or just to hang out, is really starting to hit me. There are some friends that I just started getting to know, and now I'll be far away from them. I hope they know what they mean to me. I'm already starting to learn some of the lessons I think God is wanting to teach me when I go. Sometimes the outcome of the lesson feels like a brick in your stomach. Will I have the courage to stand up for what is coming my way, the next gut wrenching blow. Thank God I know that I don't have to do it on my own, that He is there beside me, holding my hand, or holding me up. When I need Him, He is there. He is there when I think I have it all figured out and fall on my face. Thank God I don't have to know all the answers, that all the pieces don't have to be there for me, that He'll place them there when it's time. He's always with me, even when I think I can do it all on my own.
