Time for a break

Ok guys it's time for a break from politics. It seems that's all I've been writing about lately. With the passing of Super Tuesday I shall take a break from boring you to tears with my political rantings and ravings! Instead lets talk about. . . . ME! lol just kidding I know you all get sick of hearing about me too. However I would like to talk a little about some things going on in my life. We have recently started working on an Easter drama at our church. I wrote it sort of. I took some songs and things that I love and compiled them to tell the easter story from a unique perspective. Why am I telling you this? Easy I need for you to pray!!!! For those of you that are close to me you know that my passion is drama as a ministry. It is in my humble opinion that drama is a powerful tool of ministry. I Do NOT want to just put on a play that looks good or has pretty music. I want to make an IMPACT on people. I don't just want to stir emotions over the bloody crucifixion. I want to stir souls as they realize the power of his mercy. I don't want to just cause excitiment when Jesus raises the dead or he himself raises from the dead I want to build faith in his healing power. More importantly I don't want people to walk away on Easter Sunday simply saying wow that was good I really enjoyed that instead I want people to walk away with tear stained faces and changed hearts and I want our visitors to return!!

So please keep us in prayer. Keep me in prayer as I lead this noble army of actors and crew members in the right direction and set them loose in battle on Easter Sunday. Pray that I will keep a right attitude when someones personality clashes and tempers flare.
Pray for the actual production process that costumes will fit and crosses will be tall enough and lights will be bright enough. Pray that no CD's get scratched midway through a performance and no one forgets their lines.
Pray for the actors that they too will feel the same burden for souls that I have and that our mission will be the same. Pray for the annointing upon each member of the cast.
Finally pray for those souls that will be filling our pews this Easter Sunday. I am challenging our cast and crew to fill the seat they normally occupy with at least one visitor.

The drama is called through the eyes of Mercy and some cast members to keep in prayer are
Destiny
Debbie
William
Leah
Anthony
Cindy

Travis
David
Joy

Thank you all for your prayers and support
With much love

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.
