What I want to do in my life.

My friend recently wrote a blog post that included her bucket list.

This inspired me to do the same, and as my blog is typically more serious-type posts, I thought I'd have some fun.

So here are a few of the things I really hope to do at some point in my life (my bucket list, if you will):

*In no particular order

1. Learn French
2. Learn Chinese (Mandarin)
3. Learn Arabic
4. Adopt a child
5. Run a marathon
6. Live overseas
7. Live in the inner city
8. Coach basketball
9. Do something productive with my ability to rap
10. Spend time in Israel
11. Visit Cameroon/spend time in multiple areas of Africa
12. Go on a Mediterranean cruise
13. Be part of a ministry to street kids/prostitutes
14. Open up my home to someone who needs a place to live
15. Get a degree
16. Learn to play racquetball
17. Learn to cook
18. Own a construction barrel (no, really).
19. Learn how to make UBC fruit tea
20. Go to Disney World in Hong Kong

:) that's it for now. I'm sure there's more I want to do, but this was more or less off the top of my head.

"For the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but have divine power to destroy strongholds. We destroy arguments and every lofty opinion raised against the knowledge of God and take every thought captive to obey Christ." 2 Corinthians 10:4-5

What arguments and opinions are you allowing to be raised against the knowledge of God in your mind right now?

Right now, I am dealing with a lot of fear.

Joyce Meyer in her book "Beauty for Ashes" says:

"If the devil can frighten us, then we are putting more faith in what he says than in what God says."

Hmmm... Interesting point, Joyce-y.

-

This just confirmed again how necessary it is to memorize the truth of God's Word and speak it over myself. How will I put my faith in what God says if I don't know what He says?

-

I'm excited that in my learning scripture to fight fear, I have the promise that the weapon of God's Word "has divine power to DESTROY strongholds."

-

Fear has been a constant stronghold in my life for some time, and I am excited to know that it will be broken in Jesus name.

You are loved. :)
