Waiting on Him in all my ways.....

So this season for me has def been a maturing season.....In my relationship with Christ.....I've been reading this awesome book that helps you prepare for your mate and your prince in Jesus....So its really preparing me and changing the way I think about things and its giving me a better understanding on relationships.....Waiting is def hard but soooo worth it! I don't want to settle for 2nd best and I want what the Lord has for me....not just whats out there......Its hard at times but I just remember its Gods timing and He has it all planned out!

Another thing the Lord is speaking to me about is going to Haiti in Oct....Well there are a few mile stones in the way right now but I am praying that the Lord will make the way!

There are soo many things that are coming up in my Life different paths that I may want to take but am waiting on clear direction! So please join me in that...

Work is going good. Right now I am in Charlotte for my last training and I can't wait until I am done....Its hard bc you still have goals to meet while your gone..

The family is doing alright....mom is still without a job....not too sure whats she is going to do...She has enrolled in school and started her classes...which are hard for her....but its not paying the bills.....so we shall see.....

Well I will try and get on her a lil more now since I got a better computer that will allow me too!
Hope all is well with you guys!
Thanks for your prayers! Love ya

Preparing....

Hey guys..It truly had been forever since I've posted anything...That's because I don't have internet anymore at home plus I've been super busy with work and family issues.

But I did want to give you guys an update on how things are going and what the Lord is doing in my life.

I am still currently training for my position as a personal banker that I took at the end of may. I got my loan number Thursday and now I can do mortgages and stuff....Fun uh

I really don't know what the Lord has planned for me....I have sooo many desires on my heart and just waiting on the Lord for the clear direction on what He wants me to do. I have been reading a book and also have gotten some amazing words. The Lord is preparing me for him and for my future mate. Its a beautification process and its def a new season for me. I feel like I am maturing more in the Lord as well. Its different then how it was...But its good :o)

I don't know if that makes any sense to you guys.....

Well got to go. Love you guys!~Jess

New Season!

Hey guys, I haven't been on this thing for a long time...So the last thing I posted was about going to Haiti....Well it was amazing!!!! I seen things I've never seen before. Even had gone there just last year its amazing how different each city, town, and village is. I made some awesome friends and those kids touched my heart everyday. I can go on and on and cry and cry....I just can't wait to go back...Maybe the summer trip. Who knows..if it's the Lord's will I will most certainly be going back as soon as He allows! :o) I just want to be in tune with Him and His will for my life. I know He has a time and a place for everything but sometimes I forget that or try to do it on my timing which usually ends up in a big ole mess! I can't wait to see what the Lord has in store for me and through me. He amazes me everyday on just how Good He is!!!!

Speaking of which....Most of you know I had an interview the week I got back from Haiti with the bank I'm currently at but just a different position and location (which is closer to home and that's what I really wanted and been praying for) and not even after an hour after my interview.....I got the job!!!!! Praise the Lord! So my last day at Gordon Hwy is may 22nd! I'm really excited about this new position...There is a lot of work involved and a whole lot of training I have to do but it will all be worth it. I know this is of the Lord b/c I prayed about it before the position even came available this last time and I prayed before I applied got the peace to do so and prayed on the way to the interview and just simply asked...Lord if it's not of you....don't let me get it. Anyways...so I am very thankful of that! 

My nieces and nephews are getting sooo big...I need to post some updated pics of them....They make me feel old and I know I'm young but I guess what I am trying to say if they make me realize how fast time goes by! It's crazy....

Well I think that about does it for now!

 Love you guys!!!!

Haiti....Here we come...

So guys I just wanted to let you know i will be on a team heading to Haiti tomorrow and we will be home Friday night...sometime :o) Just be in prayer for our safety and that God just softens the haitians hearts as we share the love and the Word of God to them....I am super excited about this trip...Much different then last year in sooo many ways! 1 I'm not by myself and Im with a group and 2 I'm going to the village, whereas last year I was in the city...two different worlds...well I got to finish getting ready...just wanted to let you guys know where i'll be and I appreciate the extra prayers! Love ya!!!!

Getting behind

Wow!!! Its been a while since I've posted anything.  Last week was so crazy for me. I went to West VA with our youth and had a really good time. We left on Fri and came back on Sun. I did hurt my arm and think I may have a pinched nerve...so I need to make an appointment for that. I also had my finals for winter quarter! I made really good grades this quarter and hope to do as well next quarter. Just really praying about what classed to take. I really want to be able to stay with the youth on weds.

I am loving my new house. My roommate Kristen and I are just having a blast and getting to know one another better and has just been a blessing to me. I miss the family I used to stay with. They are great people and I love them dearly. They have really blessed my over the past year.

Im also going to Haiti in a couple of weeks and I am SUPER excited about it. I will be going with 20 others to a village called La Source. Last year I went and stay in the capital Port Au Prince so I cant wait to see the village...Very different from the cap!

Well thats all for now. Hope you all are doing well. God bless! 

New Season

Well I haven't been on here in a while and just wanted to update you on my life. I have recently moved. I love my lil townhouse its perfect for me right now. I went back to school in Jan and this quarter has been tough but my grades are better this quarter then it has been since I started. I don't have class on Wednesday's so I have been able to help with the teenagers again..which I love doing...they are my hearts cry. The Lord has been doing an amazing transformation in my life. I have denied myself and have been more open to what the Lord has to say to me and others. The Lord has given me a different way to pray. I've prayed a certain my whole life and now its different....Hard to explain. But I love it. The words that the Lord has given me for others...it just amazes me that the Lord will just someone so unworthy like myself. But He is good and is grace is enough. Also this spring break I will be going back to Haiti for a missions trip..If ya'll have any ideas on how I can raise some money for this trip that will be great. Continue to pray for the support I need for this trip. i love you guys..I am so blessed to have friends like you!
