Man, I wish I would have been blogging the process to how this all came about, but all I can say is God is not a God of confusion and His signature has been of peace! Going back and continuing to learn God's Word was the plan... but when and where was the question. God has stirred a new passion in my heart in learning how to share my faith. A few weeks ago I got to go to Spirit West Coast in Monterey (a festival of bands who come together and booths set up with different types of ministry). Nick V. spoke, from Lifewithoutlimbs.com, of his experience in growing up without arms and legs. He expressed how to him he knew that he was different but it didn't bother him until the world told him he was different and labeled his identity in what he couldn't do. "You won't get married, hold your wife's hand, or hug your kids." He contrasted it to what God's word says about us; our identity: "You are God's masterpiece, His workmanship, His beloved, His blood-bought child covered in righteousness by the blood of Christ." Again this passion of learning how to share my faith came up with a parallel in learning God's word and the truths about who He says I am. My hope is that in sharing my faith others may be able to experience this identity that God has called them to! So I applied (the last day of application), prayed, waited.. and got in! I leave next weekend for So-Cal to go to the main campus in Murrieta!!
