Are you a good resource?

In my own world, I try my best to be a good resource for others. I was thinking today about people who wants to be a good resource and never are called upon to help others. I am guilty of this, are you? Are there people around you willing to help, and you don't let them. Why? Serving others is one the greatest feeling I have in life. Giving the opportunity for others to serve is a good thing. Now, go and allow those around you to serve with you instead of you doing it all by yourself.

Last night, I went to a rehearsal of the Gwinnett Symphony Chorus. I think I will join them, but it was a very intimidating experience. All in one night, we sang, German, Latin, and Italian. All in one night. I was worned out as well. 3 hour rehearsal. They were getting ready for their Sunday performance. It was good overall. I look forward to this summer activity.

Summer is around the corner. Please come fast!

New Orleans and the kids are amazing!

I am often confused about what I am good at in life. I enjoy so many things but if you ask me what I am good at, I could not tell you. I am passionate about kids and service. I love hangin out with kids while doing service. I am here in New Orleans with kids while serving. I love it. It does not mean I am good at it. What are you good at? I am shocked that I really can't answer that question well. I am a very confidant person in what I do. This also doe not mean I am good at it.

The kid have been amazing her in New Orleans! I can't wait to bring another group of kids. We have painted, organized stuff, and moved a lot of things. I got the chance to do what i enjoy and that is meeting new people and making them laugh and have a great time being together. Is that what I do best? I don't know. I did have a great day. I would say the best day of the trip. Yesterday we tied Christmas trees to be dropped in the levees. I have bumps all over my arms. Not complaining but the kids were awesome yesterday as well.

We head home on Monday with stories and hopefully changed lives. Our goal is to make God even more famous. It is not about us, but all about God. I love these kids so much. I don't think they really know how much I care for them. Well, I'm going to bed. Another Great day tomorrow. Peace,

What is going on?

Right now I am finishing up this semester with many service project with my junior high kids. I love to serve. My prayer is that my students will get into serving as well. I have the best boss who rarely ever tells me no. I do feel pretty good where I am today.

Christmas Musical is going on at church. We had a technical rehearsal tonight. It was the best so far since I have been at East Cobb. Ray Hawkins does a great job directing and putting this thing together. I think he is my long lost brother from another mother. He does a lot of good. I trust this about him, and love partnering with at East Cobb.

Christmas and a new year is upon us. I am going to be taking it easy. 2009 should be a great year for me. I don't know why, but I just believe it should be a great year. I will turn 38. I am looking forward to it instead of dreading it like the last 2 years. We will have to see what God has planned for me next year.

I am very happy being in a country that is suppose to be struggling financially, give as it does around this time of year. I worked today in a local ministry that serves as a food bank and to witness the good spirit of the people is amazing. God is Good!

Be safe this holiday!

Week 3 of my summer

I have packed almost everything up for my move except for everything I need this week to live on. I will be helping with our youth group in the inner city of Atlanta on Wednesday and Thursday this week. I will be traveling to Harding on Friday for Uplift. A very busy week, but exciting because of all of the service opportunities this week. I do love to serve. It takes my mind off of weird things. I have been thinking a lot which can be scary. I will picking up my reading for the rest of this week. More papers to signed as we move to the closing date! Bye!
