The presence of the Lord has been so astounding. I can write pages and pages and pages of His glory and it still wouldn’t compare to His magnificence. Learning to cry from joy has been a new thing to me. The hardest part of this project has seriously been not being able to tell anyone about it. Just His Kingdom alone provokes tears. The glory of His presence has been the biggest distraction… i can’t even finish writing the notes; I just get caught up. I fear that I may not be able to capture it as pure as I want to in this project. Priorities often get lost, but I have to stay on track. Good news… I found out earlier this week that someone may be publishing a small work of mine into a magazine. It’s not official yet, but if it goes through, it would be a big step.
In the meantime, I’ve enjoyed the rich discussions from some dear friends (you know who you are). I love reading about what’s going on in your lives and how the Lord is working in and through your lives as well. Thank you also to those who have spoken into my life… I’m learning to fly a little higher than before as a result. Eric, Locy, Ben, Shalako… I miss having you around (there’s so many others). I look forward to alumni wkd.
I also found out Wednesday that two of my dearest friends, Patrick and Libby, got together… I was probably the last person to find thais out… but it certainly made my evening. All I could picture was how Denver would react to the news.
To all of those who have kept me in prayer and have encouraged me through this season, thank you. It doesn’t go unnoticed… really.
Blessings to you all!
Wow! That’s great that your work might be published. That’s what I’m talkin about!! Keep moving forward in the favor. God bless!
Erik, See, God blesses you without even noticeing. Thats what’s so awesome. We find out later . because you have been so focued on him and doing for him.
I can totally relate to what you are saying about God’s magnificence. I feel that if I say what God has been doing in me , with me, through me, people would say that either I’m lyeing or boasting. The Joy I feel and am being blessed with is so amazeing. The only way I can describe it is. “GOD rocks my world ” It is so hard to keep it in. Oh how I love to worship him. So I do it quietly…..I PRAY…..AND I PRAY SOME MORE. I’m sure glad I have a direct line..lol
Sorry about just rambbling on and on. but I love talking about Christ……. rex
remember to pray ALL ways..
Erik…that sounds so exciting. I have no idea what you’re doing…I assume writing a book, but I am excited for you!! Just to be doing/fulfilling something that the Lord has placed on your heart for so long- it feels amazing, and He really does overwhelm you. I love hearing about the progress and I’m excited for the impact that this project is going to have on your life…and I’m sure, thousands of others. enjoy it.
your updates are always inspiring

So your post from the 19th… yeah I really needed that that day… I must have read it like right after you posted it in the morning… so crazy… and some encouragement to you… This youth group I go to on wednesdays, we had a girls night, and I read your post on what Godly men look for… yeah well, they actually listened, and now all of them want a copy of the post. They thought it was so good, and I know they listened because it came straight from the source… so THANK YOU FOR WRITING THAT. They really needed to hear it. Just thought I’d let you know.

Hello Sir-
I’ve heard your name hear and there recently…
Maybe we’ll run into each other this coming weekend. I wouldn’t be opposed to that…

it’s pretty crazy, isn’t it? Pat and I probably surprised a lot of the old bro/sis core…
🙂 a wonderful surprise though…..
Erik, Words are such funny things. They can say the most beautiful things and someone can rearrange them and cut to the quick. that’s what makes you so special. You are gifted with word arrangement….. awesome… would be my word for you…
remember to pray ALL ways..
