"One cannot desire freedom from the Cross when one is especially chosen for the Cross."- St. Teresa Benedicta of the Cross

Seeing this picture is a constant reminder of picking up the crosses i bear in my life. We all have crosses to hang on to, whether it be work, skool, friends, family, etc. Sometimes though the crosses tend to get too heavy. Even to the point where we cry out, PLease God take away this cross from me! It is too heavy!' Though often times we dont realize that certain crosses are given to us for a reason. As St. Teresa says, we cannot be asked to give up a cross when one is especially given to us. Though the suffering sucks, suffering is love. Suffering is being able to totally surrender one self to the will of God, so that we might become all He created us to be. In Romans 8: 17 it says, "The Spirit itself bears witness that we are the children of God,and if children, then heirs, heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if only we suffer with him so that we may also be glorified with him."Hang on to those crosses, for all we know they could end up being blessings in disguise.

Ive made my decision that i will serve again in core for this next term. Im pretty sure though i will serve as secretary of fellowship. ONce my new term starts i have some great projects and ideas ready to go for this next term. I am very excited to see who will be nominated and appointed into those open departments. Advisors to Servant leader Aela Mejia have said the servant leader is seeking another term. THough she has not publicly made the statement yet, she is expected to within the next couple weeks. This term has gone by pretty fast. Praise God that He helped me carry out my term w/no problems. I think ive done almost errthang i wanted to accomplish. Oh well durrs always next term. Im also excited for the anniversary to come woo! 6 yurrs in the making...wow SH has come a long way, i remember coming up to prayer meeting the first time and hardly saw anyone in durr. Now look how much it has grown. I think ill reshow the power point slide show i made last yurr and juss change the 5 yurrs to 6 yurrs. haha Then juss add some more pics to it. haha jk

Im excited for SH cafe, even though NOT ONE community has confirmed w/me whether or not they will be participating or not. SO now i gotta do it the hardway and start harassing people w/phone calls and threats. haha jk Forreal though i juss wish people would respond back to the emails i send out, so at i least have some idea. So now core has to go out into the streets and start fiinding groups and people to participate. Though i know most groups will want to end up performing last min. Or when they get durr and see the other groups theyre gonna be like 'oh man we shouldve performed. ' Then imma say, 'sucks to be you!' haha jk

YOu know whas also coming up soon, my 1 yurr blog anniversary in nov. As you can tell from my archives ive been blogging for quite a long time. I remember when i had only like 5 links on durr, now i think i have at least 1 persons blog from errcommunity ive been to. I guess blog addresses are part of the contact info that you exchange as well as friendster stuff. Blog has changed the way people think dramatically jk. i didnt think id be blogging this long and look ive already have completed one whole book of blog. Ive blogged almost errthang that has gone on in my life. The times when i went to the atm, the times when i had the runs, the times whurr i was emo, the times whurr i was happy yay. wow...what a life ive been blessed with.

Im excited to go back to prayer meeting on tues. ive been Servants Heart sick as of the past couple weeks. No i dont mean like sick of servants heart but more less i missed servants heart. YOu know like being home sick or sea sick oh wait thas something different haha Forreal though, im excited to come back. I feel like ive been gone for a whole month. Calvin asked me earlier tonite where have i been cuz he hasnt seen me. Well last week i was @ liawang whurr i met some cool people. I figured that was gonna be my only time to get over durr to promote for SH cafe. The week before that i was SCRC core meeting planning out the last details of the young adult track. YOu know whatd be funny, if that guy will comes to prayer meeting on tues. If he comes oh man, then we know fo sho that its gotta mean something! Well juss have to wait and see.

ONe last thing...
Faith is not merely praying

Upon our knees at night;

Faith is not merely straying

Through darkness into light;

Faith is not merely waiting

For glory that may be.

Faith is the brave endeavour,

The splendid enterprise,

The strength to serve,

Whatever conditions may arise.



Happy birfday Mama Mary!

"I can search for all eternity long and find there is none like you..." im done, im out God bless!
