"Serve those who hurt you the most..."

I had a great day makeitclap! I woke up early and i went over to help out at catholic house in santa ana. Let me tell you, it was a totally humbling experience for me. There were a lot of little kids running around and juss laughing and playing. Great stuff. Its something that maybe SH can do later on in the future. I guess usually on teh weekends there isnt a lot to do being that they have big groups there. Mark anthony and i were actually the ones who went. We didnt really stay there long being that there wasnt a lot of stuff to do. Helped them clean up the backyard area, then made some lunches for the kids. It makes me happy inside knowing that i can help others who are in need.

My parents and i went out later on to help finish decorating my classroom. Then we all went out to celebrate makeitclaps birfday at paul's place. MmM pauls place is yummy, good food! Their onion rings are off the wall delicious. So next time i go out w/a group of people and we need someplace to eat, then ill bring up pauls place. Dang, ive been eating a lot of fast food lately. Ha thas probably why im so passive huh! ha its okay when i die i wont be judged on much fast food i ate or how much food i ate in general. Unless i committ sloth, but ha i dont eat juss to eat. haha

Anyway, after an afternoon full of dramatics and let me tell you it was unexpected dramatics. I was able to find peace w/Jesus later on @ St. DOminics. I love ohw they decorate the church for advent, they got like real life human size manager. So a lot of different things JEsus said to me tonite. THings that i needed to hurr over and over again. Things that i also needed to be reminded of. I was reading a book and this jumped out to me,

"When you must suffer, think of the master standing head and shoulders above those who were taunting him. All the strength of God was shinning through his eyes as He stood there and took all they had to give, even as he would hang there and ask forgiveness for them, and at the end win back a thief and gain an eternal kingdom."

God has given me a lot of trials to deal with this past month. More then i expected, truly He tests me on how much i can handle. HOw i deal with each situation. I praise Him for the crosses He has me carry. Even the heaviest ones cuz man without them how would i be able to grow? I compare my life in a way to gameboard, for each good deed/action i do, im able to go forward. Yet then there are trials, the blocks that try and prevent me from doing what i need to do. Banne said to me that these trials im given mean that He's giving me the opportunity to practice the virtues He's trying to grow in you. Patience, understanding, forgiveness, mercy, love.

YOu know whos great? Leo that guy is juss full of God's love. When he struggles He puts his whole will and gives it to God. That guy is moviation for me to trust in God, and look to him when trials arise. To hold the crosses i bear w/love and look to God for guidance. Its cool how he's able to smile despite his own personal struggles. Gotta tell ya, this guys faith is an inspiration to me. I guess GOd sent him in my life to help movitivate me when i need to good ol jump kick. Yes to put me on check as well. Praise God for people who movitate you to become a better christian.

Its true we all are many parts, we are all one body, and the gifts we have we are given to share with the spirit of God makes one in peace, one love that we share, one hope and despair, one cross that we bear. When part of that body suffers, the rest of it suffers with together. I know fred could attest to that, he experienced it first hand. Love, i love it!


Thanks God for errthang today!
