Awake, awake, Oh Sleeper!!

grrrrr.....yet another lame day in KC. I'm so bored with this place. oh well i know God has a plan for me here and i trust Him to keep me. I am baby sitting and the baby is sleeping. Its valentines day and i am sick. no buenas dia if u know what i mean. I got baptized last night with a couple of my friends and it was a very awesome experience. I love the friends i have here and have no clue how i can live apart from them. Its like my heart is torn in two between my friends here and my heart in Los Angeles. I know I am called to go back to Los Angeles and i know God will release me there and give me grace to turn hearts back to him. Oh God would you turn The City of Angels back to your heart and have mercy on the wickedness of California. I plead the blood of Christ over the South Bay, Oh that the cry of the Golden state would be for mercy instead of change, would you put a cry for the return of your son! That you would rend the heavens and come down for the sake of your people and have mercy on us! The Spirit and the Bride say come Lord Jesus, Come!! God how long will we have to wait in our suffering? We need to pray for our generation. If this is truly the generation of the Lords return we are screwed. This is the generation of the Joel 2 army and we have no idea of what we are doing! Wake us up Father!! Awake, Awake,Oh Sleeper!!! The man who came to save us is coming back!! when will we understand this? How long will it take for America to be awakened from our slumber! Oh Lord, forgive us for our complacency! Forgive us for our sins! The blood being spilt will cry from the ground and we will fall under the same condemnation as the innocent ones we are mercilessly killing! Jesus i plead your blood over my sins and the sins of my nation, God end Abortion and send revival to America! Beware, you who wallow in sin! Jesus, the King of Kings and Lord of Lords is coming to make his final judgement on sin. He is righteouss and true, His judgements are Just, His name is Faithful and True. He is the Lord of Hosts and commands the armies of Heaven. Thousands of Angels are at His command and it is by His grace and His strength alone that I have breath in my lungs and a beat in my heart. He is coming back for His bride and will smother the Nations and pour out the cup of wrath that He drank at His first coming! Will we deny our Saviour a second time? Will we see that He is our blessed hope? Beloved there is good news! You can be part of Him, He is merciful and desires that none should perish! Repent and turn from sin for this is the kingdom of heaven! I am hopelessly in love with my saviour and i wouldn't have it any other way.

Wow i miss California

Wow, today it was 40 degrees the whole day if not less and got dark around 5:30pm. This makes me very sad and depressed. I miss California i got a bad case of the Cali blues :( but i will be coming out there this Christmas and summer, i hope, so all i have to do is wait till then. UGH WHAT AM I TALKING ABOUT I CANT WAIT THAT LONG! I have been attempting to satisfy myself with looking at pictures of the surf and the ocean and all my friends in California but that only makes it worse. I have decided to make a list off all the things i miss about California: Trader Joe's, Jamba Juice, In n Out, Islands, The fact that it is sunny and relatively warm all year round, the beach, all my friends, Richardson Middle School(go rattlesnakes!) South High School, my dance friends and amazing teacher!, being able to skateboard without having to stop like every 10 feet because of a huge crack or hole in the street because of all the ice and snow, i miss going to the beach and playing volleyball with my cousins and totally and utterly killing my arms, getting tan, Good Stuff, playing soccer at school because it was so warm outside, Skate parks((even though i never actually skated in them i just liked to watch)amazing Mexican food made by real Mexicans, ugh if you think of anything else comment it but this is all i got so far. HEHE I MISS YOU GUYS IN CALI!!

IHOPers know how to party

Ita Halloween night and so what do we do here at IHOP? well a while ago we found out that if you wear tin foil you can get a free burrito at Chipotle. So our youth group, well those who arent in San Diego for TheCall, all showed up at youth group and we took a shuttle over to Chipotle, wore foil and got free burritos. later the youth leadedrs took us to starbucks and bought us hot chocolate. We had so much fun because there were only like 6 kids and like 9 leaders. When we got back from Starbucks we played capture th flag with everybody and my team got totally smoked but it was still fun. I think my favorite part though was when we were riding back to the Justice Prayer Room and me, Emily, and Wendel were all in the back of the shuttle rocking out to Eddy James which our driver Josh was blaring obnoxiously loud it was epic.

Edge of Hell outreach

About half an hour ago I finished de-briefing from a thing we do here called edge of hell outreach or evangelisim. Edge of Hell is one of the largest most popular haunted house in Kansas City along with The Beast. Instead of normal youth service we decided to go and evangilize at these haunted houses. There were about 20 of us and most of them were my friendsand youth leader. We went to where we have youth service and they briefed us on what was going to happen and how we should talk to people. Then we carpooled over to Downtown kansas city and got out of the car, yes we all had seatbelts dad, and it was COLD!!! We talked a little and they split us up into two groups and one of them went to Edge of Hell and my group went to the Beast. I find it strange how they are the biggest haunted houses in kansas city but they are across the street from each other. So we went to this haunted house called the Beast and it was pretty freaky and kinda scary. THere was this guy dressed up as "the beast" and he would come up to people and like growl it was really wierd. So we talked to people and handed out tracts and copies of 23 minutes in hell to people and asked them if they thought what they were doing was realistic and like if they died tonight where would they go. It was really cool to see how people were open to it and we saw God move in alot of people. One guy we talked to was named Tanner and he was there chaperoning his brother and his brother's friend. He was very interested in what we had to say and we went from the end of the line to almost where we went into the haunted house talking to him and he let us pray for him and we saw God plant a seed and we fed it and it in that span of a couple minutes started to grow. It was like nothing i had ever experienced and i loved it because i got to see God move. Later after i got home He spoke to me and told me that because of my boldness and love for those people He moved in them. I have a very hard time speaking to strangers but as the night went on it became easier the more i talked. I was surprised at what i was saying and the boldness that i felt and i felt so confident that i knew God was speaking through me and the Holy Spirit was moving through me and my group. it is the greatest feeling in the world and i hope that everyone we spoke to feels it to someday.

SpiderWebs

You know those moments where you just don't understand. Along with that you don't know how to communicate in a way where you can say what you think so it wont come out disrespectful or it will make sense to the other people. I those moments. I the webs that satan wraps you in and fills your mind with so you cant think. Your words get mixed and then you feel trapped inside of yourself and dont know how to get out. Then confusion comes and you try to think back to what happened and you look stupid because you cant remember what the heck you were thinking at that time or your plan of how to communicate. I guess it comes with being a teenager but i have had a problem with this all of my life. I this with so much venom because i know that the devil knows my vulnerable points and takes advantage of them. I can feel it and I call on God because i know He is the deliverer and The defender of the weak but it is so hard. I am wrapped in the spiderwebs of deception and oppression but i need to get out and can only do this by leaning on and trusting my Beloved. the one who searches after my heart and loved me first and through Him and Him alone i am able to love Him back. Sometimes it is so hard to love and trust the God who is intangeble and you have no way of seeing unless you go to Heaven (which i havent gotten there but im working on it and praying for it) but that is where faith comes in. Faith is believing in what you are not sure of. I have so little fait yet He gives me grace to build it and gives me the power to preform signs and wonders so that i will increase my faith. God is so mysterious and good and we do not deserve what He gives us yet He gives us all of Him. He is so awesome and aweful that all of my questions end in awe which is the way it is supposed to be. I dont really know why i wrote this on here but if it somehow is stilol here in the End Times and i get martyred bring it on. Maybe i felt the need to write this because maybe it is a confirmation for somebody but whatever it is it is. I the devil bottom line. There are few things in this world that really just tick me off and he is the source of all of them.

Guitar

I got a guitar for my birthday from my family in California and I am so totally stoked. I dont actually play it that much cuz of the whole moms house dads house thing and homework but i still play it when i can. I was playing it today and realized. The cookies are done! That actually has nothing to do with guitar at all but hey. So anyway i was playing and looked out the window and saw a squirrel. it was a very ugly squirrel so i went up to the window and started banging on it. The squirrel went away. this post is mostly made up because i am so bored i cant think of anything better to do.

Awakening D.C.

I am currently in D.C. with yet another IHOP teen camp Awakening D.C. it is a complete blast! we have been doing daily life stands and hanging in the prayer room. It has been alot of fun for me cuz i got to see some of my friends from awakening Teen Camp. I recently found out that it is faster to walk to most places we go to than ride the metro. I also found out how fun the metro is with about 100 of your friends! We play this game on the metro where you "shoot" somebody and whoever you shot has to stand up and either; 1) shout out something about God, 2) stand up and start preaching, or 3) belt a Misty Edwards song. who knew the metro could be so much fun? i have been really touched by God in Him showing me how He feels about me and loves me. I have also faced the challenge of standing up for what i believe in and having to lean on God and trust that He will see me through which He always does. We went to the Holocaust museum two days ago and it was almost the gnarliest most intense experience i have been through although i didn't come out bawling like i thought i would. What a trip it is for me to be with 100 other young s that all they want to do is praise God and be Jesus's friend whos hearts are set ablaze with an unquenchable fire burning with the Godly zeal. i hope everyone reading this will at some point in their life get to experience this. we stand together as the bride of Christ and cry out to God for more of Him and Revelation of the Godhead! How cool is it to be part of a generation that has been ed from and now through Christ we will never die.
