So I have been wanted a positive focus in my life. I have always known Jesus and have had my ups and downs when it came to following him. Over the past 1 1/2 things have been amazing I have given everything to Jesus. I have seen Jesus work wonders on peoples hearts, mind and overall life.
I attend the Rock Church San Diego and they have a 9 month disclpeship course call Impact 195. And yes Jan 3rd I will be starting. I am not only excited to learn more about the word of Jesus, but I am excited to see what other great things he will be doing in my life and others.
So why Impact 195 you ask? Earlier in the year there was a lot of stress placed in my life and the life of my good friend Jenny. She asked God for a change and got excepted to Impact 195. Since she has been with Impact God has done wonders. I have seen Jesus take a seed and bloom it into a flower. She told me about Impact and what amazing things it had done for her. But I wasn't sure that I was ready to make that big of a commitment to Jesus. Months went by and Impact 195 talk was every where. The more I heard the more my heart longed to be apart of learning more about Jesus and do his works. But how was I going to fit this in my busy work and school schedule. After months of praying Jesus made it clear. " This is where I want you. I have bigger plans for you." Ok. Jesus how is this going to effect work. I have worked so hard to get to where I am and to throw it all away? And his message was clear.
Impact 195 decided to have evening classes, which ment keep my job and still do the discipleship course. But what about all the time off needed for the Wilderness Trips and Missions Trips. Once again his message was clear. I was to ask work for the time off without pay. Well my job would never support me doing this. And as loud as trumpets are " Ask child, I will do the rest."
Arranging a meeting with my boss was nerve racking. Scare of rejection, I told Jesus, " Ok I am asking." To my surprise my boss said " Wow this sounds like a great program, get me some more information." Three weeks later my boss said " I will support you with this, I think this will be great for your growth." And the rest is history.
As I prepared in excitement with this next month, I am in awe of Jesus unconditional love he has for me. I am blessed to be where I am today and am ready to give it all in Jesus's name.
As you travel with me, I pray that Jesus will use this blog to impact you and others around you as he has me. Sometimes we climb the mountain and feel stuck when we are at the ledge, but taking that leap of faith is the ultimate answer.
May god bless you today and always.
Agape,
Reshae
