A Holy Fam In Every Home

HOW

"Do not let your past or anything negative reduce who you are, but allow God to quench who you can become..."

SPEECHLESS: What can I say bout tonite? Nothing except praise God! Okay, there's more to say but Praise God tops it all. The nite was a total success, it was huge they ended up having to bring out more chairs in the middle cuz people kept popping in them doors. As I sat from my corner and watched these talented give their thanks to God, I was amazed. I couldnt help but juss smile and feel sooooo proud of them! Giving everything they had back to God. I cant wait to hear what the cd sounds like. It was amazing, gosh the spirit truly took its place tonite filling up the room with fire.

THE JOURNEY: It has been a long journey for all of us in HOW. God opened a door for us that we never even expected. We gave our 'yes' and everything juss seemed to fall right into place. Of course there were some rough spots, definitely some challenges, yet God gave us grace to get through it all. I was so inspired and so in awe on how hOw has grown within these past couple of months. The journey is not even close to over yet, in fact this is only the beginning of whatever else lies in store for us ahead of time. Though I'm excited to see all this upcoming stuff! We journey together hand in hand to continue to share the love of God w/others.

THINGS MADE POSSIBLE: Tito rudy who has been there for us from the very beginning. There at every single practice, helping us along the way. Feeding us, so our stomachs are aways full. Opening the doors for us errday pretty much. He help light that path for us to get us started . Its soo great the many different people who contributed to making last nite possible w/o them it wouldnt of been wha it was. There was also carlo, who manned the mixer help set-up and getting the equipment we needed, basically all around sound tech. Then there also was tita mila, who also has been so supportive of us since day one. THank you Lord for sending us wonderful people who have been so awesome to us from the very beginning.

SMILES ALL AROUND: Last nite was something to really smile about. Smiles on the face and on the hearts of all, smiles cuz of their love for God. A smile on my face cuz it was a blessing to stand(well not exactly stand since I wasnt on stage)but juss to be able to serve w/these souls who have given their errthang in making the nite wha it was. The solos were touching and inspiring that one couldnt wait to dload the song and start singing it themselves. Even the youf that were there enjoyed it so much that they were up in the front dancing and juss moving to the spirit. I loved it!

SUPPORT: One of the other great things that took place, was juss seeing the familiar faces out there. I think it meant a lot to all of us to see friends and family come out to support. I mean heck even myron, topher, and jeanette from SOL was there. I didnt even expect to see them there last nite. Dorthee and jei as well as jill and derrick also were there which was cool. Its always exciting to see people you know come out and show their love. To those who prayed for us, thank you as well. The spirit was moving all over the place nite, it was like were juss wrapped around in His love. Its like you ask why sometimes to God cuz you sit there scratching your head cuz you really dont understand but later on He shows you the reason why. So thanks again to those who prayed for us and those who came out.

MISSING: I cant seem to find my sunglasses and my sunglasses is a REAL necessity to me. I dont even care if I get a tan from them. I hate driving w/the sun in my eyes, I hate being outside doing stuff w/the sun in my eyes. Ahh! I came home on tues. and I dont even know wha happen after that. I hope they show up cuz I really need them especially during work hours. St. Anthony help me find my sunglasses!!! ***EDIT I found them, theyre at my grandmas house! WooO!***

THE STANDS ARE OUT: One of my favorite parts of summer is when you start to see the firework stands being put out. It gives me this exciting I dont know like tingly feeling inside juss cuz I know my birfday is coming! When I was younger I remember going to bed early on the 4th, so my birfday would come faster. haha Ah yes the smell of fireworks and firework stands I love it! Its cool how there are other people who I share the same day with, before I didnt know anyone who had the same birfday as me. Yay for july 5th kids! woOoO!! Oh yeah I also have this tradition where I always buy fireworks, but put some aside and save them for next year.

CLEANING UP: One of the things I hate is when my kids dont clean up. They start an activity or project, but then dont bother to help clean up. Agh! It bugs cuz I have to sit and waste time telling them to clean up when they could've juss done it and be done with it. Then wha I hate also is when they dont bother to help errone else clean up. More time is spent wasting time telling them and reminding them to do small things like this, when that time and energy could be spent elsewhere. That happened at work yesterday and it juss put me in this ugly mood.

SNAPSHOTS: I cant wait to see the pictures that my cousins took from last nite. He had one of those hardcore digicams the lens on that thing was huge! It was tight cuz I went around taking pics w/errone and she followed me taking them. They both got some really good shots of errone last nite. I tried but it was hard to focus on power point and take the pictures at teh same time. ha but its cool cuz I got some! yay! We'll I'll end it here cuz dani says my blogs are too long haha

SIDE NOTE: One more thing before I wrap up this entry, juss how great and hospitable of a parish Holy Family is. They took us in and made us feel like...ahh yes family! Oh yeah on more thing, speaking of Holy Family; pray for me I have an intvw tonite @ holy family cathedral for jr. high youf minister. The fun juss doesnt end! yay!

Thanks Lord for EVERYTHING last nite!
