I am learning so much recently.It's ridiculous to see how much I am not usually satisfied in Christ. When He, of course, is the only one who will satisfy. And because of this I fall into selfishness so easily. My prayer right now is to be broken of that.Another thing that not only is a constant longing of my heart, but also I am so excited about is to see revival on A&M campus. I truly am expecting it. I want to be part of it. But am content to let God use me in whatever way He sees fit. But I am ready. and expecting. and insanely excited....

I'm not so much looking forward to school and work. On the other hand, I can't wait for the awesome things God has in store for this year. I'm nervous and excited about upstream, and am so ready to see what God will do. I have learned so much here at a&m in just a year so I'm pretty pumped to see what will be next.Impact was incredible. God moved. It was so cool to just see God work. I'm so blessed to have been a part of it.Right now, I'm learning to trust. Kristin is at TIRR after 3 more brain anyeurisms. She is in a near coma state right...

In an earlier post I talked about how I was hurting and how it was a good thing. I feel like that deserves an explanation and will lead into a lot I have to see this time.Usually when I have thoughts of my dad or what he has done or anything to do with him, I feel hurt, but I cover that up by feeling fear which I cover up by feeling hatred. That night when I wrote, and any time since them, when I think of my dad, I have made a conscious decision to not be angry or hateful or fearful, so I am left with feeling only hurt. It is hard. Clearly, it...

John 3:15 in the message says “and everyone who looks up to him – trusting and expectant, will gain real life, eternal life.”The other night I was talking with Brittani. She is the girl leader at the internship. I was really really struggling with depression and I asked her to come and pray truth over me. After praying, we were talking and she told me this verse. We came to the conclusion, that I always believe God CAN fix my life, and deal with my family situation and take away my depression, but I don’t ever believe he WILL. That is a problem....

I have so much more I need to write and tell yll. So much that it's crazy. and upsetting that I still don't have time to write it.Today... I am hurting. A lot.Believe it or not, that's a good thing. and a long story for another time.I am also struggling so much with depression.and therein lies something I learned most recently.God has given me an immense amount of joy by following Him, and giving me the Holy Spirit. It's a fruit of the Spirit. therefore I have it. Instead of allowing myself to admit depression and just give into it all the time....

No real time to do this since I'm about to go serve dinner. At least I think that's what I'm about to go do...I had an awesome experience today though. I hung out with a homeless lady named Shirley for about an hour. It was so cool to just show her that someone cared. And through that, that ultimately God cared. I realized how needed it is for people to love on desperate people. It really pointed out the scripture the interns have been studying which is Matthew 5:3 - "Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven." It's crazy...

Ok I actually ended up having a couple minutes. I just never know what my schedule might be! Even now I have no clue how long I have to try and write.The last three weeks has been a continual process of learning and growth. The first huge thing I learned was on the evening of my first day off. I was very frustrated by situations happening at home, and tried talking to the girl that is the leader of us girl interns here. Here's the thing about this girl, she has a habit of speaking truth whether you want to hear it or not. I remember by the end...

Hey my friends.So God has been doing a ridiculous amount in my life thus far this summer. I have been trying to keep people updated and keep updated with people, but due to my limited amount of free time in my schedule, it's been difficult. Therefore, I decided to make a blog. I don't really have time to do anything cool with it at this point so it's whatev. It's just gonna be plain.I named it clinging tenaciously because of my desire to be like Jacob who wrestled with God, and clung to Him until God blessed him. Though he was wounded, he tenaciously...
