birthday23

I was looking over last years birthday photos, the guys took me mountain climbing! Absolutely fantastic! But 22 has finally turned into 23. I'm not going to deny I dread it but I do have to face it. I'm growing up, well not really, I think this is as big as I'm going to get but I plan on doing a different kind of growing up this year.
I was reading Carry the Flame of the Revolution a few weeks ago and it hit me pretty hard again, always does.
If the family is going to fulfil the Lord's calling, its up to us to pick up the torch and stand in the gap. It's hard when you have all these left over 16 year old juices pumping threw your veins, but I've decided that this year I'm going to foucus that energy into something more productive for my home and teem. Already the make over has begun, last aria fellowship I looked threw my wardrobe and found nothing but NICE clothes to wear.
A year ago I told the Lord that if he really wanted me to go from hippie to chique, He would have to supply the proper offensive dress code. He did and now I have not a thing to look shabby in.
Trust me, for some of us Looking Nice, was really bottle braking and revolutionary haha.
So here I go, 24 is waiting...wish me a happy birthday will you!!



This photo by Ivan war horse, please pray that this month's fund raising goes excellent for him.
and something for me from my brother Jess who loves me

I went to the Cervantonio in Guanajuato. It was amazing. I prayed with only 10 people, shameful I know, some people got up to 100 saved.
Well, my excuse is two of the guys I got saved were atheists and I ended up spending a lot of time with them. I hardly speak spanish but did my best. It was just the Lord they ended up praying cause half the time I didn't even know what I was saying.
These are a few photos of our team. I took tons of the actual Gypsy dancing and the holly ghost sample as well as the band playing but to my total embarrassment, I was using some one Else's cam. heee..
Lucky person got some great shots! Amazing!"
Love you all!

Take a sad song and make it Better

better, better, better AAAAAAh"!
And now to make you laugh, my final thrust into the hearts and minds of my readers, if this doesn't move you, there is no remedy.

one for the rocord

happy are the people who's God is the Lord.
Any one can be sad, being happy is being strong.

"the joy of the Lord is our strength".

Me: Not a party animal, I'm dancing cause no one else is. once I get the ball rolling I'll retire. If not, this could be a long night.
hate empty spaces, believe in touch so "touch me", gravitate to happy people.
Life is ironic so is the smile on my face.
greatest lesson learned "bad will be good 1 day". some how I still tend to be negative tho always hopeful.
I don't believe being serious makes anyone look more mature.
I've learned to cry without tears. I have tear glands, but they are completely unreliable. I feel 2 much yet some how people still tell me I'm cold. "try rolling ice off my back".
my greatest asset is my love for the Lord. My strongest weakness my wandering mind. I'm social but don't have many close friends. I'm cynical but still come threw for strangers & there is no limit 2 how far I'll go 4 family. I'm often taken advantage of but thats my fault. If I can't be helpful I'll feel helpless. I try not to judge and disagree with gossip. although I'm not guiltless, I will give every one a chance. The only way I cannot forgive you is if you don't want me to. The only reason you would not forgive me is if you don't want to, I'm really just all about what you want… "twinkle twinkle :D".
Lack of communication is poisonous.
If I don't live up to all the above, don't be surprised. life requires that we reinvent ourselves many times over.
My Name is Clay cause the Lord gave me a new beginning, I don't feel embarrassed by it, I'm hardly ever embarrassed. if you don't like it I'm not gonna cry, but I really think lack of respect along with lack of love is becoming more and more our biggest human flaw.

Frogi Face

I have a friend, her name is Jess, she lives in Brazil, she has a blog...

I can't make a frogi face but I have a long tongue similar to a frogi tongue,
so I use that ...

I love you Jess, miss you and all the happy people who love Jesus in Brazil!!
