Life Update

Well since my last post a lot has happened in life! On April 4th I got engaged to this amazing girl! Krishauna Fulp

I have been asked multiple times in the past week where she is from and when our wedding is planned. Well to put it simply. She is originally from Ohio, has been in Guatemala the last 4 years with her family working under Hope for Home Ministries, but is currently in Ohio finishing up her college degree doing student teaching. We are planning two weddings. The first will take place in late October in Guatemala and the second here in Dillsburg two weeks following the first wedding.

After the second wedding here we will be living in this area to begin raising support to be full time in ministry in Guatemala through Hope for Home Ministries and Push The Rock.

There are so many details to work out, but we are both trusting on God and following His lead. We both have these plans set up, but know that God will be opening and closing doors and that following Him is most important.

As we continue to plan for weddings, finish school, and begin the summer working for Red Rock Landscaping, it will be a busy next 7 months, but there is so much to look forward to and it's so cool to see how God has worked even in the past 7 months!

Above all we want to give God all the glory and as this song called "Great Are You Lord" says:

It's Your breath in our lungs
So we pour out our praise
We pour out our praise
It's Your breath in our lungs
So we pour out our praise
To You only

So pumped and excited to see God work in the next 7 months.

You Make Me New

Well, this is the first post on my blog. Yeah!! Anyways I started this blog as a way to express my thoughts and update people of my life's journey. Right now is one of the few times I won't be busy for the rest of the semester. I will be starting to work with Red Rock Landscaping very soon on Monday, Wednesday, Fridays, and have classes pretty much all day on Tuesday and Thursdays. Then comes graduation. I'm looking forward to being done, and want the next seven weeks to go as fast as possible, but it's so weird thinking I only have seven weeks until my college career is over gahhhh!!!

However, as I was sitting here working on duolingo.com practicing my Spanish (very good website for learning languages by the way) a thought popped into my head that everyday God is making me into something new. Everyday He is giving me more wisdom and understanding about who He is. Everyday he is leading me new places and showing me new ways to spread His love. Everyday he is giving me new challenges and opportunities. He is allowing me to begin to learn a new language and just opening doors and allowing more and more details to fall into place as I look at the future after graduation. I am so excited to see God continue to transform me into who He wants me to be! He created me with passions, skills, and desires and I can't wait to continue to use them for a little while longer in this country, but pretty soon in this amazing country!

He makes me new everyday!

As time goes on I will be using this blog to talk about how God is leading and directing my life as well as stories and challenges and opportunities I have.
