Why did I ever doubt you?

Last week was a pretty bad week for me. It just was not happenin', but as the week came to an end you know the big man upstairs lifted me up. God always makes away. He has healed me & I'm feeling stronger than I was before. Although my poor baby (laptop) is in the hospital right now, God has offered an alternative & lent me, although old, but still a well functioning laptop. In addition, He has truly helped me find great deals on books cause you know how that story goes :) I'm still praying for my class schedules. I'm hoping I find peace in the classes I am taking. It's the start of a new week & I'm praying that it goes better than last week. I mean I know it will as long as I lay it in God's hands. I need to keep up with that 3:00 PM prayer.

We're having a Good Friday performance
at church April 10th, if you can come then COME!
I am really excited because God has really blessed the youth group this year. There are new faces & new hearts that are hungry for Him. I can't wait and I know that it'll be perfect in God's eyes, because we're going to do our best :) I am really praying for more new faces in the audience this coming Friday, not so that they can see our talents, but only to witness God's glory. Cause really our performance is not for those people who are coming, we only have one audience to really satisfy. So I hope to see you guys there:
Faith In Christ Church South Bay. Get at me for more information :)

BTW prepare yourselves for Easter. The message was really good today. Easter preparation should be 10x greater than Christmas because it is the day that our Salvation has been declared. & not many people think of it that way. Christmas has got people lining up the day before just to get good deals on shopping, but for Easter preparation is the day of. Don't get me wrong Christmas is definitely a significant event, but it was on Easter that the child born on Christmas was crucified to save millions of lives from the sins of the world. I mean I am guilty of it, but now I know that this is the day that I should enthusiastically look forward to because it is because of this event that my life now, is so much better than it was before.
