It's been awhile since I've written here but a lot has happened.
I feel as though God has put me in trust situations over and over and over again to actually help me ACTUALLY believe that He is trustworthy, that I hear from Him and that He is my father who loves me.
Art & Worship nights are amazing. God shows up everytime and I am so thankful. More and more people are beginning to paint and encounter that Fathers heart through creating and worshiping Him. It's so beautiful.
This night rarely happens without me coming under attack. To be completely honest, it sucks. I get so excited about what the Lord wants to do that night, I sit and wait on Him about what He wants to do and I receive. THEN the day comes and I'm bombarded with lies. I have to spend at least an hour before to prepare my heart in order for me to be give the enemy any ground. In a different light...I'm honored that the enemy sees art & worship night as being threatening to his kingdom of darkness. Sucks when light comes in the morning when you want to sleep...I think the enemy gets equally pissed off when there is light shining in this dark world. Sorry Satan, we're here to SHINE!
On another note. I feel that God has given me visions of the future regarding different situations and people. TALK ABOUT TRUST! When you see nothing physical pointing to that promise it's so easy to become so discouraged...but I want to be one of those children that trusts. I have to fight the lies of 'you didn't hear him...you're just crazy...where's the physical proof'? Those fun lies, bahaha they suck!
Anyways, God is definitely putting me on a trust road, and it's narrow but FULL of grace! He continually picks me up out of the bed I make of lies and says 'c'mon kiddo, get up, I have something different for you, I have something so much more beautiful...let's do this together, I'm holding your hand." WOW my Daddy loves to hold my hand down the narrow roads and smile down on me with favor.
I leave with this verse...I will not be put to shame for trusting in the Lord, nor believing His promises. I want to trust and I want HIM.
Psalm 25:
"1 To you, O LORD, I lift up my soul;
2 in you I trust, O my God.
Do not let me be put to shame,
nor let my enemies triumph over me.
3 No one whose hope is in you
will ever be put to shame,
but they will be put to shame
who are treacherous without excuse.
4 Show me your ways, O LORD,
teach me your paths;
5 guide me in your truth and teach me,
for you are God my Savior,
and my hope is in you all day long.
6 Remember, O LORD, your great mercy and love,
for they are from of old.
7 Remember not the sins of my youth
and my rebellious ways;
according to your love remember me,
for you are good, O LORD.
8 Good and upright is the LORD;
therefore he instructs sinners in his ways.
9 He guides the humble in what is right
and teaches them his way.
10 All the ways of the LORD are loving and faithful
for those who keep the demands of his covenant.
11 For the sake of your name, O LORD,
forgive my iniquity, though it is great.
12 Who, then, is the man that fears the LORD ?
He will instruct him in the way chosen for him.
13 He will spend his days in prosperity,
and his descendants will inherit the land.
14 The LORD confides in those who fear him;
he makes his covenant known to them.
15 My eyes are ever on the LORD,
for only he will release my feet from the snare.
16 Turn to me and be gracious to me,
for I am lonely and afflicted.
17 The troubles of my heart have multiplied;
free me from my anguish.
18 Look upon my affliction and my distress
and take away all my sins.
19 See how my enemies have increased
and how fiercely they hate me!
20 Guard my life and rescue me;
let me not be put to shame,
for I take refuge in you.
21 May integrity and uprightness protect me,
because my hope is in you.
22 Redeem Israel, O God,
from all their troubles!"
Amen God!
Your daughter, dancing in your presence.

The Lord is sure to accomplish those things
Wow, it's been forever since I have updated this thing!
Through so many emotions, thoughts and feelings, the Lord continually reminds me that He has in fact given me this vision and He sincerely wants to accomplish it through me! How humbling!!!!
So I was on my way to a coffee shop a few weeks ago and I was sitting at a light believing all these lies 'this isnt going to happen...this vision is not going to happen...you didnt hear from the lord....and this is so impossible!'
I was devastated. How could I believe that God really gave me this vision and that it would really happen.
There I sat in the coffee shop pondering and believing lies until I opened up my devotional for that day (which I usually do in the morning, but that day I waited til afternoon!)
this is what it wrote...I don't even have to add words to this beacuse I know you will and hear Gods voice through this devotional...after i read this i was speechless.
Speechless. I sat there and cried tears of joy.
"My words...will come true at their proper time (luke 1:20)
What the Lord has said....will be accomplished! (luke 1:45)
The Lord is sure to accomplish those things
A loving heart has waited long to see;
Those words will be fulfilled to which she clings;
Because her God has promised faithfully;
And, knowing Him, she never can doubt His word;
He speaks and it is done. The might Lord!
The Lord is sure to accomplish those things;
A burdened heart, rest ever in His care;
In quietness beneath His shadowing wings
Await the answer to your longing prayer;
When you 'cast your cares' the heart then sings,
The Lord is sure to accomplish those things.
The Lord is sure to accomplish those things
O tired heart, believe and wait and pray;
Peacefully, the evening chime still rings.
Though cloud and rain and storm have filled the day,
Faith pierces through the mist and doubt that bars
The coming night sometimes, and finds the stars.
The Lord is sure to accomplish those things.
O trusting heart, the Lord to you has told;
Let Faith and Hope arise, and lift their wings,
To soar toward the sunrise clouds of gold;
The doorways of the rosy dawn swing wide.
Revealing joys the darkness of night did hide."

Choppity Choppity!
I chopped all my hair off today!!
I finally did it. You probably wonder why....? NOT because it's summer but because everything I do has meaning and this is something shared with my Father in Heaven
I was talking with a friend of mine and he innocently made a comment about womens beauty being their hair. .He didnt mean anything by it but I took it and ran with it. I started thinking how much I care about how I look and that I prize my outside beauty more than anything. Being the rebel I am, I said to myself- I'm just gonna chop it off then!!
After praying about it, I decided to do it...and not only to be a rebel but because I voluntarily wanted to sacrifice something to my Father. I had a conversation with him and said,
'Daddy, you're going to actually open your art gallery through me and others. I declare it now and I will have my hair short until it's open.' This is taking something I prize, putting it on the altar (so to speak) and saying I don't want it and I know you will provide, I know you are going to open it and I know you will show up and talk to me everyday, you're so faithful, so faithful.
"He's faithful to the end
He's faithful to my heart
He's faithful to the end
He will come and marry me"
- Cory Asbury, Faithful to the end
Daddy,
I give this up to you...not just my physical hair but my heart. Take it, it's yours. I trust you with my life and this vision, I know you will fulfill your promises. I want to live in your promises.

I MOVED!
So I haven't had internet since I moved but I needed to share it!!!
I was offered a job at a chiropracors office and I took it!
The lord had been so good throught all of this but it's been a tough journey so far. I had unrealistic expecations of moving and I'm soon realizing that.
I decided to share a lot in this because the good, the bad, and the ugly should be on this. I don't want to have people read and just see good, theres trials in life, there are attacks but there is endurance and hope in Christ.
My free place is no longer free. I sat there after I found out and just simply said....'God, you knew this would happen, everything is in your hands' I soon found a place to move into! I have to pay but hey, responsibility right? God knew this and thats all that matters to me. I loosen daily my grip on life and my grip on my dreams. Let go, there in good hands....the hands that created the world.
I'm starting to pray a lot about the art gallery, God is putting it so heavy on my heart that I can't function throughout the day without praying about it! haha Gods going to bring some major healing and worship to that area, its going to be so beautiful!
Gods put me a long in cs and its pretty hard. I forgot that cs is emptied in the summer! I have a full time job and its draining, I can't hang out a lot with the people here but theres a reason.
Colaboring! I'm in and out of conversations with the father regarding what he's doing in and through me. No one can answer a lot of my questions...only the father. This develops amazing initimacy with the father that we all need to undergo. He strips a lot of our idols and I believe thats what he's doing with me. It hurts, it sucks, but its good.
God is good.
I wouldn't trade these experiences for anything but it doesn't make it easier. The only thing that does is God's peace that he sends to me through the Holy Spirit. His presence is what makes me calm.
for I know
you are faithful
my God
God,
i thank you and praise you for your presnce and your spirit. i thank you and praise you are visions and dreams and healings! i thank you for the fact that you came to rescue us. i thank you and praise you for the fact that you know ALL things and ALL things work together for our GOOD, i trust you...

Job?
I have a job interview this week! Actually 2!!! Thanks to beautiful Rachel! We'll see what the Lord wants to do! This could mean me moving to CS officially next week!!! but no matter what...he's faithful, even when we're not!
This song keeps repeating in my head...His love never fails
'Nothing can separate
Even if I ran away
Your love never fails
I know I still make mistakes
But You have new mercies for me everyday
Your love never fails
You stay the same through the ages
Your love never changes
There maybe pain in the night but joy comes in the morning
And when the oceans rage
I don't have to be afraid
Because I know that You love me
Your love never fails
The wind is strong and the water's deep
But I'm not alone in these open seas
Cause Your love never fails
The chasm is far too wide
I never thought I'd reach the other side
But Your love never fails
You make all things work together for my good'
-Your Love Never Fails, JesusCulture
all i have to say is....AMEN
God,
you're faithful, teach me to be faithful like you but remind me that your grace falls on me every moment i take a breath...
