  • Here it is October 25th, and I'm more than halfway through my first semester here at Liberty University. I have grown so much in Christ. Seriously! I've never been so close to God as now. God has really shown me His power through prayer and I can feel the Spirit of God burning deep inside of me. I have been hearing God's voice loud and clear. I came to LU feeling somewhat hindered in my growth in Christ. I had a desire to change, to surrender, fully to Gods will and his call. YES, God filled me. If you hunger and thirst for righteousness YOU WILL be filled. I not only was filled but I started overflowing with God's love, overflowing with the Spirit of God in me. For example, I could see lives being changed back at home just through the power of prayer, my mom is going to church, and shes in the word of God. I had the AWESOME opportunity to lead my own brother to Christ...and I'm proud to say he is now a new member of the family of God. At this point in my life God is telling me step out of my comfort zone and STAY....its hard, scary, and Satan is throwing things at me left and right and I can LITTERALY feel the spiritual forces of good and evil at work. I will leave you guys with this verse...

    I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. ROMANS 12:1

  • Here we go.....Its April and graduation is less than two months away. This chapter of my life is coming to a close, and the next will begin. I got accepted into Liberty University in Febuary, worked my bottom off at Wendy's, got all my stuff together, got all my scholarhsips. Im now nearing completion of all my steps to attend Liberty this fall. I cant believe high school, my childhood AS I KNOW is going to be over. Im moving out into the real world, starting "my life". Im going to miss ALOT of people from RHS, and all my friends.

  • Whoa! Life has a lot of turns. Its been December since Ive updated and MAJOR, im talking about majo things have happend, and some not so major. Smaller news first. I had a car accident December 23rd, im okay, had 2 staples in my head and a mild concussion. Car was totaled, I got a ticket. To sum up the stoy of the accident, It had rained heavy that day and I slid on water and hit a tree. LUCKILY, by the grace of God i was fine. I didnt get into Appalachian, which may have been for the better, but after that I was down. I was spiritually confused and didnt know where God wanted me anymore, but God made it loud and clear when I got accepted 2 weeks later into Liberty University. I recently went to Liberty for CFAW, and thats when I prayed that God would make certain for sure thats where he wanted me, and it is. Ive paid my tuition deposit and I'll be a freshman there this fall. Tuition/Room/Board is EXPENSIVE THOUGH. 27,000 per year. I'll have to trust in God to provide for my needs though. He gave me the assurance that Liberty is where He wants me, so I need to place my faith in God to provide for my needs, including the whopper cost of college. Today the youth of my church went to Lynchburg at Heritage Baptist Churh for TEENS INVOLVED competition that weve been working a long time for. I was in drama and helped with the band. Drama didnt make it to regionals, but the praise team did. SOOO thats exciting

  • So some major things have happend in the short span of time that Ive updated. Not going into detail yet because these things are still in progress...

     My mom and her boyfriend of two years are now ending their relationship.

    My brother is about to start going to counseling again for the death of my stepdad, his father

    Seems like my mom's side of the family is slowly falling apart

    Impaintently waiting on my acceptance to Appalchian State (the only college so far ive applied too)

    GOOD THING IN THE MIST OF ALL THIS....

    I "think" ive discovered where God is leading me in life and I cant believe I didnt see it. It was always right there in front of me starring me down. Art
