Well, most of you know, but not all of you know, so I guess this will actually make it all official in me telling people.  I have been called to preach.  Yes, you read it right.  God called me to preach, and I have known for a long time, but I chose not to really do anything about it, till now.  I know, it's bad, and I should have listened before now, but you all know how I am.  God was really dealing with me here in the past few months, and everything seemed like it was just all going wrong.  I was about to get to the end of things, and couldnt take it anymore, and finally I just prayed and asked God what it was that he wanted for me, and of course he told me.  This time I was still saying no, and didnt want anything to do with it.  I said there was no way.  And then I came to my senses, cause I seen that my was wasnt working at all.  So I prayed and said okay, if this is what you want, let me know for sure.  I ended up calling one of my friends shortly after that to just talk and take a break from the studying I was doing.  I had no intentions of telling her what was going on, but somehow it just all came out.  I told her what I was going through and that God had called me to preach.  Right after I told her, and she paused for a minute and simply said, I know, I felt like a ton of bricks had been lifted off of my shoulders.  Then I tried to figure out how that she knew, and all I can guess is that was God's way of saying, hey, are you gonna listen to me now.  So, things have been changing drastically lately.  Satan is attacking me everyday as hard as he can, and its really tough.  I ask that you all pray for me because now I dont know what is going to happen.  I know that I'm going to graduate from Murray, or at least try anyway, and then I'm going to Louisville to the seminary.  And oh, I still have to tell my parents all of this.  So I ask that you pray that they will be supportive for me.  But I want to thank all of you who have been there for me the past few months, you all mean so much to me, you have no idea. 

 

Also, please note that this is the condenced version of what all went down.  If you want to know the whole story with all of the details that I left out, come and talk to me.  I love to tell this story...its sooo awesome of just how it all happen and fell into place.

 

God Bless,
