Joy

What's on my heart: I want to stay in Dublin and continue working for Abbey this next year. I am praying that this will work out, but if it does go another way I must accept it. After all God is in control and he has the best plan for me, I only want what He wants for my life. It's the uncertainty of it all that makes me feel a little shaky right now but what would my life be without those little uncertainties? Too picture perfect, to perfect for me to contemplate or challenge myself. One thing I do know about myself is I love a good challenge. 

I hope you guys enjoyed the videos previously posted. These videos are funny and should not be taken super seriously. They were both made at 1 a.m. We were scheming about the arts festival very late and the thought just popped in my head, let's make videos! I just want to say that me and the girls I work with LOVE what we are doing here, LOVE seeing God's ministry unfold before our eyes, it's beautiful. God gives us joy and we just want to see that acted out in our work. These videos were geared toward the youth culture. I know when I was young the youth workers who always affected me were the ones who were relatable, who were silly, the ones who made me laugh, they connected with me. I was afraid of the stiff adult who I could not relate to. I feel so blessed to be doing what I am doing. I want to thank God for laughter because I enjoy a good laugh. In fact if there was no laughter, I am not sure how much of person I would be.
