February Update

Lately I have just been at awe with all the of knowledge that does not come from books alone that I have been blessed with. From all the speakers in the DTS to seeing it lived out in our lives and others.
As God’s Word is continually renewing and broadening my scope. I realize more and more that my views are so often like in the picture to the left. Like tunnel vision. I can only see what is right in front of me and not look at things from others perspective. So needless to say my world view has broadened to a more global aspect and towards others. That I am not the only one in the world having issues everybody does. So I ask God “how can I portray Jesus to these people” in a way that they would understand and not what is convenient to me.
Another big issue is Love. Not the form of “love”(lust) that we think of here in the States. Love surpasses understanding, a love from God. That love is a CHIOCE and it is not just a feeling, emotion or for my convenience. That love is to hang in there whether you feel like it or not, stick it to the end!

Praise's
All the great relationship that I have been making.
The unity of the DTS students and staff.
Continually refresh of vision from God for people.
Gods continual faithfulness in the little things.
For the gifts and talents that God has given me to use for the Kingdom. (ex. guitar, music, speaking and understanding the tough issues, being open minded.)

Prayer
That my faith may continue to get stronger each day.
For the grace to really on God to be my provider and strength.
The financial provision so that I may continue to do what God has called me to.
That I walk in the newness of my mind and diligently seek after the things of God. For self-control of my body, soul and mind.
That my words may be Gods words through the Holy Spirit.

We are growing daily. Praise God for all the amazing connections that we have been getting. It is also great to see all different types of organizations and denominations working together for one goal. To see Gods Kingdom in our lives and hear on the earth.
