So I'm here at honor academy. And I just have to tell you all...You're missing out! It is so amazing being here. Like imagine a good sermon with amazing worship and just spending time in His presence for a whole day. That's what we do here. Everything...even working out...we are worshipping or singing or wrtiing to Him. All we have is literally His.
But it's not just some Jesus camp here. They aren't playing around. I have quite literally painted a giant target sign on my head for Satan. He is already hitting me and trying to bring me down. But I am so encouraged by my friends and the presence of God is so strong here that it has been so easy to say, "Back off Satan! I am doing the Lord's work and I am not going to let you do anything to ruin that for me!" That doesn't mean I'm happy all the time. I have already sat crying thinking, 'what have I gotten myself into. This is so hard. Am I really cut out to do this?' But I read today is Psalm 34 that God is close to the broken hearted and He saves the crushed in spirit. My God is strong. And through Him I can do all things!
I do miss ya'll though. But NOT as much as I miss real FOOD! I sware I have eated chicken for every meal! Even if they say oh this is so and so...there is still a trace of chicken that they hid in there I know it! Like the other day I had these things that were trying really hard to be swedish meat balls but they looked more like something the cat left on the carpet. I'm dead serious. No exaggerating on this one. And I had a marshmello egg this morning. It was like those little peeps things you get on easter, but white with a yellow dot in the middle. ha ha. But it tasted like air so i ate it. I'm thinking it was something like mana. :]
So every morning we wake up at 5:15 am for this thing called corperate. Basically we work out for an hour as a way to worship and thank God for our ability to be alive and moving. (But after i don't feel so alive and I def. can't move.) Today it rained...hard. I was laying down doing sit ups and pretty much drowning. Then we run a mile non stop. So any of you who have ever said i was lazy...EAT YOUR WORDS! I had to lay in muddy puddles and hold a push up postion while being drenched, cold, and TIRED! I'm in Jesus boot camp.
Right now we are training for E.S.O.L which is our next LTE. ESOAL (Emotionally Stretching Opportunity of a Lifetime) is an optional LTE designed to stretch you emotionally and physically. It's actually the most popular and influential LTE. Being stretched through simple repetition allows you to confront potential problem areas in your lives that often go undetected. The Honor Academy staff works intensely with you during this LTE to ensure that you take full advantage of this unique learning opportunity. We had a member of the U.S army here the other day who said that E.S.O.L was actually harder than any training he had. Please pray...I'm nervous. :/
Actually if you go to http://www.honoracademy.com/ltes.php there is a video on it. Enjoy.
I love you guys. I just wanted to let you know that I have grown more in the last two days than i have in months. God is reaching in and grabbing whatever impurities I have and molding me into the woman of God HE CREATED ME TO BE. I'm too busy to miss you guys. Sorry. I'm in H.A I'm not allowed to lie. Ha ha. Hope ya'll are enjoying your week. Keep checking the blog. There is still so much i have to say but it's time for mystery meat of the day! my guesses is it's going to be some kind of chicken lasagna. We shall see...
