Welcome to the blogoshpere Jerald and Ashley!!!

So I want to take a second and welcome two of my very dear friends into the wonderful world of blogging!!! First off there is Jerald he started his blog a while back but didn't have time to keep up with it. He's starting to post more regularly now and I have added him to my blog roll. He is madly in love with God and has some great thoughts to share!

Secondly is one of my best college buddies Ashley. She is a crazy girl who also loves God. It's nice to have a friend that fits into both the church and college category of friends. Come to think of it Ash is the only one!!! Although we do have another friend joining the ranks soon as Shane is coming to UAM WOOHOOO!!! I have a lot of church friends and I have a lot of college friends but it's nice when a friend fits into both places!!! Anyway go check out their blogs I'm sure they have some great things to say.

So welcome Jerald and Ashley!!!!!

Love you guys bunches!!!!

Today Yvonne is Sad :(

Pretty lame sad face I know.

I'm so sad today! Tonight will be my last opportunity to sing with the choir before I have to fly back to Arkansas. I love singing in the choir. There is such a great spirit there, such an awesome amount of positive energy that always puts a smile on my face. I'm so thankful that I get to sing when I come home during the summers. Thanks for that Bro. and Sis. Frost I love you guys bunches!

Don't get me wrong I'm kind of ready to get back to Monticello and the excitment of RA training and classes but I wish I could pack the choir up and take them with me so I could continue to sing with them!

So tonight will be a bittersweet service for me and I hope the choir just gets in there and has church!

Until next time

Yvonne

Lord Prepare Me!

Last night I had the opportunity for the second time in the past week to really witness to someone. She was a young woman who at one time had the Holy Ghost but has now fallen away from God. I was told that I was the answer to her prayers. Really she was the answer to mine. I've been praying that God would allow me to run into people that I can truly be a light to. I want to be the witness that he has called me to be. I was talking to my mom about this on the phone and I was telling her about the different opportunities that I have had to share God with different ones. She told me that she felt like God was just preparing me for the work that he has for me to do. Well all I have to say is this. . ."Lord Prepare Me!" I want to be all that you want me to be.

I just felt like sharing with you all what God is doing in my life. He has been so good to me lately and I cannot thank Him enough. Each day I find another small way that he has blessed me. Sometimes it's just a reminder of his grace and how it saved me. Sometimes it's a little note from that special someone he has put in my life. Sometimes it's when he wraps me up in his presence when I'm in prayer and I can just feel his love and mercy all over me.

I hope that you all are having blessed day in the Lord. Continue to keep me in your prayers as I follow the path that God has set for me.

Prayer request

Hey everybody I'm writing this to ask you all to pray for something with me. I am attempting to launch an on campus Student Ministry called Apostolic Student Union. I am working with a limited amount of people and a limited amount of resources. We want to become a recognized organization of the University because that will allow us to reach more people on this campus. Please pray with me that if it is God's will for me to get this organization going he will open all the right doors. I have a burning desire to reach my campus and be a shining light for all of them to see.



If any of you have any experience in campus ministry feel free to share your thoughts and ideas with me as I am open to all the advice and ideas I can get my hands on.



Thanks so much for your prayers and support.





Yvonne
