Crazy Chaotic life

Right Life update!!!! Hahaha

Right I am so close to Scotland I am even allowing myself to start to get excited. I have my plane ticket printed, starting to sort out what I need to pack, starting to make my plans on who I am going to be meet till I have to hit the ground running in Scotland. I will first be in London September 20th, staying with my friend Tina. Be in that area till at least the 23rd, then head into Scotland, quick stop in Dumfries, there I will continue to grab a quick lunch with my best friend of 3 years in Dundee.

I am going to be helping a wonderful lady in Dumfries Scotland and her pastor start a Masters Commission. I have no idea what God has in store for me, I just want to be a servant to this pastor and his staff on their exciting adventure in store for them.  The pastor in Dumfries has also informed me that he is going to be sending me and the other director to the Directors Retreat in Bellaria Italy October 20-23rd. Which if you know anything about me and my family this is a real exciting treat! ITALY BABY!

So little over a month before my huge leap of faith. My eyes are fixed on Jesus I know its going to be a wild ride. But its all about to know HIM and to make HIM known!

Character vs. Talent

Well sorry I haven’t blogged in awhile. Live is getting kinda crazy. Which is good better than a boring life. Well so close buying my airline ticket to the UK to start my church work in Scotland. Prayers are very much needed to calm my nerves!

So anyway today some drama has broken out between two of my high school friends. Not going into their details it just brought to focus something I learned along time ago. Ever wonder why popularity make people go crazy? We watch great innocent children grow in the public eye then at a certain point in their age they go crazy. Examples, Lindsay Lohan, Britney Spears, ect.

When I was in Masters Commission we had a saying, “Never let your talent take you where your character can’t sustain you.” Meaning don’t get so wrapped up into what you can do, that you forget who you are. Cause one day something may happen you might lose the ability to use your talent, then what do you have? Nothing.

Never let you talent define you. You talent highlights who you are but its just the spotlight to show your character. It should never be the focus of the spotlight. If you find you have a talent, try stripping yourself of it and see what you have…
