Hello everyone! Well, I am here in the mountains of Colorado and it is beautiful. I recently picked up a book on all 52 mountains over 14,000 feet, and how I do want to come back here and climb them. I'm almost set on it haha. It has been cold out here, and Denver is a fantastic city. God has been good to me, altough I don't have much time to write I will try to put down what God has been showing me and pray that it will be a blessing to you. The biggest thing has been prayer, God has completely changed how I pray with just one simple encounter with a youth pastor here in Denver. He sort of threw a retreat for our team and in it he shared about going deep into prayer, one thing he said just hit me like a train, and I'll just try to sum it up here; When ever we say to God "do this" or " I need that" whenever we try to fix our problems and figure them out the result is us trying to do what only God can do. And what we should do is reveal to God the problem and then ask God to come heal us and then the result is we know the Love of God for us.
This blew me away.
I realized that I have been trying to get God into my situation, trying to get peace, doing it all on my own and in a way using God to help my situation. Instead of revealing to God what the heck is going on and then saying to God " Have your way." God wants to heal me at the root of why I am getting so impatient, why I exprience my emotions. God wants to heal us! This opened up doors in my heart that have been shut since I can remeber. The Love of God just started to flow and it was powerful! I realized that I needed to let God do whatever he wanted to do, and not force Him into areas of my life. To let the healing flow and let my heart be healed without the striving and trying, and letting my doors open and my guard down. Here I am Lord.
I would just encourage everyone that there are reasons why we get angry, upset, frustrated, hurt, broken, a reason way deeper then we like to go. There is a root to the issue and God wants us to just reveal it to Him and let Him heal us. And one quick note, in prayer we must be honest and consistant
There is a balm in gilead to heal the wounded soul.
Peace and revolution be with you all.

Hello
Hello everyone. Well right now I'm in Denver, and it has been really great. The air is a lot thinner because we are 5,000 feet above sea level, but the people and the retreats have been awesome as well as the mountains. We went to Aspen which was cool, stayed right across the street from Jack Nickleson. Crazy. The Lord is awesome and has been really changing me from the inside out. It has been very powerful. Well, continue to keep me in your prayers as we head over away from the mountains toward the desert of Las Vegas. The Lord is awesome. God bless you all and keep in His peace.
Peace yo.
Peace yo.

Oh Ann Arbor this is farewell
Well it has been awesome everyone. There is really no place like Ann Arbor in the United States, and I thank everyone who hung out with me and made this time amazing. You will all be in my prayers and I'm sure the Lord will bless you ten times over for the love that you showed me during my short stay. It's so hard to say good bye. Especially when there is so much I want to say and all that comes out is, " peace" or " God bless you." Gahhhhhh, oh well, you guys are awesome and truely a blessing. My heart goes out to you guys with much thanks and appreciation that it is nearly impossible to put into words. God bless and is with you, and till I see you guys again in May- the Lord reigns!
Peace and Love.
Peace and Love.
