Busy week...

Well it has been a few days since I posted anything… This week has been a very busy week and I just really feel lead to share what all has been going on. I am hoping to get back to the Timothy Series  I started to work on soon.

Friday 5/13/11 – Tuesday 5/17/11

Well it all started last Friday. Fish past away I am starting to tear up thinking about it. I miss him so much. I never really knew how big of an impact he was in my life. I want to encourage everyone do not take your friends and family for granted. You never know when you might lose them. I am so thankful that before he died I was able to tell him about a man named Jesus that died so he could live. I was able to pray with him while he repented and was able to baptize him the Sunday before he pasted. I know that he was @ peace once he came out of the water.

This Tuesday we buried him and it was my first funeral service. It is really hard to preach a funeral to someone you loved so much, but it was also a big honor to speak about a man that I loved so much. Fish was much more than a friend. He was a friend, a father, a grandfather, and many more things. He was always there no matter what it blows my mind that the whole time he was taking my grandmother to get her Chemo treatments he was eat up with cancer and did not even know it. I love you Fish and I miss you, but I think God that you were submissive to his word.

Wednesday 5/18/11

Wednesday night I had the opportunity to go to church and pass out flyers for a Youth event that happened last night I will get to it soon… I love passing out flyers and being a light to a lost world. I thank God each and every time I get the opportunity to preach in a church, but there is nothing like witnessing one on one and working the streets. I have always felt that the church stays in the 4 walls way too much. We should always be reaching out and being a beacon of Hope to a lost and dyeing world. Several things Happened Wednesday that I will never forget… 1 was the feeling I always get when doing outreach. 2. Was watching the younger ones work the streets. God is rising up a generation that is fixing to turn this world upside down. 3. I was able to be with a very, very, special girl J

Thursday 5/19/11

Thursday afternoon I had the opportunity to go the Strawberry festival. The Links did Praise and Worship there.  I love listen to the Links there is nothing like the Anointing It does not matter how good someone is at singing or playing an instrument if they don’t have the anointing they are useless. The scripture comes to my memory. That it’s the Anointing that breaks the yokes and them girls defiantly got it. Plus I got to hang out with Anna after the singingJ

Friday 5/20/11

And then there was Friday. I have been praying about Friday for a month now. You ever get the feeling that you just know something good is about to happen. I have had it for a month. I don’t think I have ever prayed more for an upcoming service then I have for this one and I was not even the one preaching.  I knew God was going to do something special and he did. 1st off he packed the church out. These Youth services are getting bigger and bigger. I am so honored to be a part of them. 2nd the Worship ushered in the Spirit of the Lord. Which allowed us to clear are minds and focus on the word of the Lord Bro. Josh really hit home on several of us. He spoke on resisting the Holy Ghost and several had been resisting. I had the opportunity to pray with my cousin Dillon and God filled him with the Holy Ghost. (FYI Phillip your next buddy) Dillon was on cloud nine the whole way home. He said he wants to be baptized Sunday.

So now today is Saturday and I am sitting at work totally exhausted from this week. Waller and I @ work joke all the time and say that Saturday is the day we come to work and reflect back over what we accomplished this past week. So I am sitting here reflecting over how great God is. I am truly blessed. To have so many great friends and one of the best families in the world. I love you all and I’m so excited to see what God is going to do next week. I have decided to let God lead and me just follow it seems to work a lot better that way.
