Only You!

Only He is so amazing! Man I just love the Holy Spirit – he rocks my socks to be honest with you. Some people might read that and think “You can’t say that, you can love the Father and the Son and HAVE the Holy Spirit but you can’t LOVE him” and to that I say a good old fashioned pish-posh! Why not? He is part of God and I love god so I therefore love him; plus, he is pretty awesome. Besides without the Holy Spirit we couldn’t do any of the miracles, signs or wonders that we do get the honour of being a part of… it’s the Holy Spirit that does them, he is what Jesus gave us when he left the earth in order to do mighty works like he did and more! Woo to the oopage at that! The prayer meetings King’s have on a Sunday night called Wave of His Power are just ‘MAAZIN’! God is always there with his bud the HS and they move in amazing ways everytime. He just blows my mind in the different ways and things he does each week makes me smile like a loon on loon tablets! ( ;

So in September I’m going to be moving away from everything thing I have ever known to live in Bedford for a year whilst serving a church called the King’s Arms on FP Impact. I have no clue as to who I will be living with, what project I will be working on or the people I will be working with and being around. Terrifying stuff… and I’m just so excited, don’t get me wrong I am most certainly scared but I know it’s where I’m meant to be and what I’m meant to be doing next year so how can I not be excited when God has so obviously been in the planning and preparing for my ‘gap year’ from the beginning. I mean, all I knew was Impact, no destination or anything and now I have such a peace when evs I think about it. I was set on saying at my King’s for about seven or eight months until <> my youth pastor, and now an elder as well, said to think about going somewhere else as it might be better for me to leave the only church I’ve ever belonged to. That’s when he talked to Julian Adams about me and anywhere he thought a good church for someone with my gifting – prophetic – and he came back to Andy with two places he thought would be great for me: Essex and Bedford. As Andy knows one of the elders there (who turned out to be the husband of the lady Julian told Andy about) he looked into there for me first. I thought it would be a great opportunity but something in me never felt peaceful when thinking about it even after them having m Impact application. They eventually came back to Andy and said thanks, but no thanks… in very basic terms anyways… So then he looked into Bedford, they looked into me and then they accepted me. And this time I felt a real peace and joy about it… but always very scared/nervous but in a good way, because of all that I know god is going to do with me and all that I don’t have a clue as to what he will do. It is all extremely exciting stuff!!
Turns out I’m most likely to be renting a room in house with two other girls from October but before that I’ll probably be staying with a married couple for the first month or so until a girl has moved out of the house. (I was supposed to try and call the house owner today but I was moping too much to do so, plus I had the opticians too, so I didn’t). I was so happy thinking I had finished trying to save up money and could now buy some more clothes I could take to Newday as I don’t have enough, well not really but sort of – it’s a girl thing, but now that I need to be able to pay rent I cant :(. I suppose I shouldn’t have assumed they do it in Bedford the way KCH do, we find people in the church to house our impacters and I think they are given money to help with that. Whereas I have to pay my own way there, I guess as that’s the way it’s done here and every other place I’d heard about I presumed it’d be like that there too. Never mind. It’s hard because I know that God can provide this for me as he has so amazingly done so with the money I needed for FP and also TSM, but I cant help but thinking I wont be able to get any money; I just need to tell myself to give it up completely to him. It’s just hard is all.

Anyhoo, it’s late so I best be getting off soon, which means facebook only for a while longer… so predictable (: Nighty Night! Xx
