First Blog

-
Why am I blogging?  Many of you that know me may be asking that, and honestly I have asked myself the same thing many times as I contemplated creating this blog.  I will tell you why:  God has been doing amazing things in my life, and I can't help but want to shout His praise to the world, and what better way to do that via the internet?  I find myself growing more and more intimate with Jesus, and would love your input, as well as to help share the good news of Christ to as many people as possible.  God made me to be a light on a hill and to allow His light to shine out of me and I want to do just that.
Also, as many of you now know, I will be doing a lot of traveling this summer and I figured this would be the easiest way to only have to tell the story once, and to keep you all updated on my life.  So I hope you enjoy reading, and if you don't I will not be offended.  Also, I am going to apologize right now for my spelling as that is not one of my gifts.

Standing in awe of brilliant minds that create technology,

Sigourney

A New Chapter

I know I talked in a previous post about graduating and things changing, but I would like to explain a bit more about where I am at in life right now and what God is doing.  Praise to God, I was accepted to go on staff with Great Commission Ministries at New Life Church, and at the start of February I headed down to Orlando for new staff training.  I learned all about how to share with others about the ministry I am involved in and how they can be involved.  I have since been working full time doing Ministry Team Development (MTD) and have also done a bit of traveling. Not really work related, I had the opportunity to travel to Arizona in mid February as well to run the Ragnar relay with my sister and her family.  We ran 202 miles in 30 hours.  It was a lot of fun and great sibling bonding.  Even though running through the desert is probably not my favorite thing to do, spending time with people is.  In a way I think God used the trip to show me how...

God is moving!: Prayer Letter 4

Do you ever feel like your life is work?  Well I do.  Recently I have been feeling like every part of my life is something that requires work.  Even my day off requires me to work to intentionally relax and not work.  Relationships, budgeting, processing my own emotions, traveling, planning for the summer...the list goes on and on.  I often feel like a dog chasing its tale; running so hard toward something and never actually going anywhere or getting any closer.  I have been realizing a lot about myself and digging deep into my own issues and fears that live deep down.  I feel as though I am starting to shine a bit of light in that corner where all the yucky things you are afraid of are.  However, God has been gracious. I have felt so many glimpses of joy and can feel God slowly transforming the dark corner into another area for Him to fill me up and pull me closer to Himself.  I would not even say that I am really in a healing process, bu...

The Word Lives

Alright people get ready, this is rich.   I had the best quiet time I have had in probably months the other morning and I am about to share it with you.   So as I have mentioned I am doing a bible reading plan to read the entire bible in a year.   I started on January first so I’m getting close!   You may not think if Chronicles as a book of great revelation, but on this particular morning it was for me. So to give you a bit of back-story basically the Israelites go through a seemingly endless cycle of having God’s favor, turning away from him and worshipping other gods, God smiting them so they will turn back to Him, repeat.   It is in 2 Chronicles 20 where we pick up.   Jehoshaphat is the current king ruling over Israel and he has turned the nation back to God.   All is going well until the Moabites Ammonites and Meunites decide that they want to attack the Isrealites.   Jehoshaphat receives the message that a vast army i...
