The Stand

Things I am praying about for the upcoming year and the future: 

Finishing up my education at Jackson State. I am 6 classes away from having my Associates in General Education. And then, I'm not getting too far ahead of myself but I am praying about continuing my education and trying to figure out where I'll be transferring to. Schools I'm praying about: 

The University of Tennessee - Knoxville - http://www.utk.edu
The University of Tennessee - Chattanooga - http://www.utc.edu
Austin Peay State University - www.apsu.edu
The University of Memphis and/or UofM Lambuth - www.memphis.edu
The University of Nevada - Reno - www.unr.edu

Also, I am not 100% yet but I have a heart for something in the ministry field, I haven't figured it out yet but there is a possibility of a career change into the ministry, so I am praying about bible college/seminary. Schools on my list for that include: 

New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary - http://www.nobts.edu
Calvary Chapel Bible College - http://calvarychapelbiblecollege.com/site/
Briercrest Bible College - www.briercrest.ca
Mid-America Baptist Theological Seminary - http://www.mabts.edu 

There are a lot of possibilities in my future and I am excited and open for any of the opportunities that I am fortunate to have. I am an honest person and I don't say this next part with any pride, but when it comes to deciding what my education or where my future is taking me I haven't fully given my trust in God. And I am ashamed to admit that, but I think it's important that I get it out there because I am turning that around. I have began to pray that wherever God wants me in life, wether it be here in Jackson, or East Tennessee or who knows maybe even back in Kenya, that I am putting my trust in HIM and going where He wants me and can use me to my fullest showing others His love. 
And this goes for all aspects of my life. 
Another area of trust I've been lacking in is relationships. I've been trying to seek out relationships on my own accord, on my own terms and I don't want that. I want God to pick me out a godly woman who loves God and will put Him as # 1. I pray that God lets someone live, laugh and love with me for who I am and because she is attracted to me because I can make her laugh, make her feel special, treat her with respect, show her love and kindness always, take care of her and read the Word and pray with her always. And that she can see Jesus' love through my actions and the way I speak to her and others. 

Amen.

  1. Michael, for as Long as l have Known you, you have always taken your stand by god and never Cared what any one thought and that is Something I have always respected you for. DO NOT be ashamed, you are human and we all have the desire to Want to Control What happens, it is natural to feel and do that. Especially when it involves our futures.

    I Never thought that my family and I would be living on the Harbor again, but every other door that I tried to open slammed shut until I realised I dont get to decide this time. He was showing me an answer that I did not want to accept, and I didnt unit I Prayed that He opened my eyes to all options and for him to show me the right path.

    anyway, Mikey he will show you the path When the time comes. Untill then just Keep doing What you're doing and be yourself. I Will keep you in my prayers. XOX
