Bus Ministry and Presents =D
























































































































































I just got home from delivering Christmas presents to all of the precious kids that ride the bus to church on Sundays! Joining Bus Ministry has been such a rewarding experience and I value every opportunity that I get to ride the bus. I love seeing such a variety of children with different backgrounds, lifestyles, stories, ethnicity's, all come together and each of them experience the same joy and have the same smile on their face when we arrive at their house to take them to church! They all have such different and unique personalities and I have noticed that as you develop a relationship with them over time you develop a unique love and burden for these sweet children. Merry Christmas to all of the precious children who ride the bus =) I love you and am so happy that you have the privilege to experience the same joy I experienced as a young kid....the joy of going to Sunday School.

SIGH......

Finals are done and school is finally out! Another semester is out of they way and a few more to go! Due to my lack of recent blog postings I will do a brief update on my life and the things occurring around me for all of the curious people lol=)

1: Like I said I have completed this semester of college and have already picked my classes for spring! Please pray everyone! I am taking Statistics at 7:30 in the morning downtown on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday! Now if you don't know me that well, please know this....the Felt family needs a good nights rest and are NOT morning people lol. In other words pray I get up in the morning =) I am also taking Chemistry 306 on Tuesday and Thursday (thankfully at a decent "Felt" time =). So if you don't see me much next semester you will know why! Bare with me please =D

2: I got a new job =D I start in January. Can you guess what it is??? No, not a nurse quite yet.....hmmm.... Well I am going to be working in the SCC bookstore. It will be nice for a change and also cause that's where I attend school so less commute time! I will most definitely miss working with my sweet, giving, flexible aunt! She has been so good to me while working with her for 2 years! But I am very thankful for my new employment! Thank you Jesus!

3: And now the best for the last....I AM SO IN LOVE.... with Jesus ;)! He has been so so good to me and I am falling more in love with Him everyday! I am so thankful for the peace that comes with knowing God.... no matter what I am going through I can trust and know that God will never let me down but will always be there and give me peace during the middle of my chaos. I am also so thankful for the ministry of The Rock Church and for the church body....thank you to everyone for all of your prayers, friendship and words of encouragement! Thank you to those that believe in me and encourage me in my spiritual and scholastic journeys =) I am also thankful for the Truth!

I Stand

Here is a poem that Janay gave to me and asked me to post it on my blog.... Enjoy=)

I stand, not just stand
I'm thankful at the devils expense
I am gold that must be purified through the flame
A diamond that must be cut by my own
I stand the storms of life buffeting me
something is all too familiar
It all comes back
the memories tear at my heart once more.
I've been here before and made it through these trials last time
I will survive
I truly will survive but let this be over soon
I hate it yet embrace it
As my muscles remember how to dig these wells of consecration
it all comes flooding back
I do want to be anointed, a true worshipper and prayer warrior
If more shaping is required
Bring it on
Whatever trials I must face
Trials I will face with a smile
I will stand through this too
My morals will not waiver
I will not compromise
Bring it on...
I will Stand!
