So Much Going On!!! Great Times!!!

So, the last few weeks have really been crazy busy for me and I’ve loved every moment of it. On top of choir practice every week the last few weeks life has just been crazy.

I haven’t talked much about my new church and how much I’m loving being there. I know alot of people disagree with my decision to make this move. I’ve heard all the comments and complaints and for the FIRST time in my life I’m doing this for ME! Plain and simple. I’ve not been this happy or involoved since I left the church I grew up in. DFC has been the place to bring hope and restoration to my soul. I’ve listened to preachers preach that in order to find freedom you had to let it all go. So I would pray and do my best to let it all go but it always hung on. Then I went to DFC where in 1 Sunday I found that the burden and pain and hurt I’ve felt for years went away in an instance. In 4-5 months I’ve been the happiest I’ve been in a long time. It’s refreshing to be involved in a music dept where the anointing is what they want. It’s not about anybody but Him!!! During practice a couple Monday nights ago we were going over The Blood for Easter and the presence of God came in that room and was so real!! We took time out to just worship God and thank Him for the Blood. That is what music is all about just pure worship to God.

Last Sunday there was an appreciation banquet for the Community Relations Ministry and I helped serve and all. I enjoyed it so much!! Hearing how that ministry is working to bring in the lost from Dallas. Great and awesome things are happening.

Then this past Saturday morning we had a Block Party, it was great fun!!! Cotton Candy, Hot Dogs, Popcorn, Face Painting, blow up houses for the kids and it was a good turn out.The kids had an absolute blast and then they wrapped it up with a candy rain!!! LOL, good times. Then we had to run and get ready for the Easter Service run through. When I left the church at 3:30 I was totally exhausted. LOL, then Teresa, Katie and I went and had Mexican food and did some shoe shopping. Didn’t find anything but we looked.

Sunday morning I was at the church at 8:30 for sound check and then a time of prayer for our service. The power of God was in that building. We had a time of worship and you could feel the presence of God so close. Then the Easter program part of the service and I think it all went great, I enjoyed being part of the choir and it felt like old times. The solos were good, Sis Kari & Kim and Bro. Toa, it just doesn’t get much better than that. Bro. Toa had it going on!! Then Bro Foster’s message on The Climb. All I can say is WOW!!! As he poured out his heart to the audience yesterday I believe healing came to broken souls. His testimony of his brother dying and his cancer touched hearts as he brought out that in the climb he would get dragged back down. He had someone build a very tall platform and they covered it to look like a mountain of sorts, really looked cool too. He climbed and stood on the top and preached a bit. It’s all about the climb. We get so caught up in our destination we don’t enjoy the journey. That message spoke such encouragement to my soul!!!

Then home to enjoy all the good food and fun with my aunts and their families!! We had a huge easter egg hunt and ate until we waddled!!! LOL. Life is so good!!! I’m blessed!!

Now to see what God has for me in the future. I’m excited and looking forward to whatever He leads me into!!! For the first time in a long time the Future is BRIGHT!!!

Goodbye 2023 and Hello 2024
