Day 2 of Haiti: Your Presence

Another day in the great country of Haiti I may say. As most of us finally got up, we started off with breakfast. French toast and bacon was on the menu, and was quite fulfilling too! As we all know today was a Sunday (just incase) and it’s always time for church. Well today we went to an english speaking church for a morning service. I expected this church to be a little run down and not built fully, but man was I wrong! This church was built amazingly and filled with people waiting to hear the sermon. It really amazes me how different and fast Haiti has grown. They went from a country that was torn and devastated by an earthquake, to a country that has become even more beautiful to me. The service was good, just like any other normal American service…. you know what… im going to stop here. lol

Just listen to this…this is how God is speaking to me about Haiti and how basically the Haiti people feel. They accept the Holy Spirit and they welcome it! They sing and praise him ALL DAY LONG, even at this moment (11:42pm).

Day 1 of Haiti: Depature to.

Today we start our journey towards Haiti! After about of day of craziness and trying to rearrange our flights we finally got a flight this morning. And I just want to thank God for that! As we were on our flight and preparing to take off in Miami, I pondered to myself about how crazy that all these people could fly in one aircraft. And then just looking at the sunrise made me appreciate,and love even more, Gods creation.

My expectations for this trip is unknown to be honest. I mean don’t be me wrong I want to make an impact but there is just so many opportunities down there. But I do hope that in some way God shines his light through us and impact the country of Haiti. This intro blog is short and simple. I’ll save the good stuff for later! Continue to pray for us!

Time to get fit..again?

So a couple months back I had decided to do P90x and workout, but I totally bailed on it! This time I have motivation!
In a couple weeks, hopefully, I will be getting a chance to shoot with my friend Minnie again! And the in September I will be in my uncle’s wedding! I’m up for running and lifting but sometimes I become lazy and it sucks! I am hoping that these events will keep me motivated and determined to get the body that I want. And I also will try to keep updates on my progress!

There are times when I really need You

God… my heart needs your healing. I am a broken man not knowing where to go. You put me through this season I do not know. I pray for forgiveness for any sin I have committed. My hope is in you! You carried me through this emotional phase and I’m ready to leap out of it. I’ve come to realize that you are all I need. Father I’ve missed you! I’ve missed the love I had with you, I just miss you! I pray that you keep me well and focused. Let me not fall!

update.

Let me just start off my saying, God is really awesome! These last few days have been good to me. Saturday night I got my second tattoo and had dinner with a friend. Buy the down side to that night was that I had to work forever! Ha, but anyways..on sunday I went to my old church because my dad was here! It was pretty great to see him and stuff. Then I had dinner again with a friend at panera and went to target. Which I’m glad we did. But life in general is beginning to look bright and up! Losing the body fat in a weird miraculous way, I just feel healthier really! I’m excited for my trip to Haiti in the winter. And excited that I get to see my friends from college! I just pray that God keeps me focused through it all!!

Proverbs 31 Woman

Hymn to a Good Wife

 ^10-31 A good woman is hard to find,
and worth far more than diamonds.
Her husband trusts her without reserve,
and never has reason to regret it.
Never spiteful, she treats him generously
all her life long.
She shops around for the best yarns and cottons,
and enjoys knitting and sewing.
She’s like a trading ship that sails to faraway places
and brings back exotic surprises.
She’s up before dawn, preparing breakfast
for her family and organizing her day.
She looks over a field and buys it,
then, with money she’s put aside, plants a garden.
First thing in the morning, she dresses for work,
rolls up her sleeves, eager to get started.
She senses the worth of her work,
is in no hurry to call it quits for the day.
She’s skilled in the crafts of home and hearth,
diligent in homemaking.
She’s quick to assist anyone in need,
reaches out to help the poor.
She doesn’t worry about her family when it snows;
their winter clothes are all mended and ready to wear.
She makes her own clothing,
and dresses in colorful linens and silks.
Her husband is greatly respected
when he deliberates with the city fathers.
She designs gowns and sells them,
brings the sweaters she knits to the dress shops.
Her clothes are well-made and elegant,
and she always faces tomorrow with a smile.
When she speaks she has something worthwhile to say,
and she always says it kindly.
She keeps an eye on everyone in her household,
and keeps them all busy and productive.
Her children respect and bless her;
her husband joins in with words of praise:
“Many women have done wonderful things,
but you’ve outclassed them all!”
Charm can mislead and beauty soon fades.
The woman to be admired and praised
is the woman who lives in the Fear-of-God.
Give her everything she deserves!
Festoon her life with praises!Proverbs 31:10-31
The Message (MSG)I want to be able to find a woman as described. Someone I can lead! I just got to know that it’s on God’s time. Girls will come and go, but if and when i do have myself a Proverbs 31 woman, I will lead her!

anyway…

lying.

I just want to vent something out..

I do not like being lied to at all. Being lied to when you know the truth hurts and it sucks. I do not see why people ( parents and friends and such) cannot just tell the truth. I honestly would rather hear the truth than some lie. Gees, people these days.
