let the RUTINE of the familiar push you into the unknown…VISION!!!

Today i was walking through the halls of the school and church i grew up in … and i began to relive many moments I had had in those halls. It amazed me how much God had done in my life through this church and school. In the same moment i was reminiscing i began to dream about my future and where i would be walking the rest of my life. I began to envision my self in other places walking in Gods will…I cant explain it but it was an amazing feeling to be walking the halls i had walked for so many years and finally be able to see beyond them. Into a vision of where God is taking me! and not only see beyond them but take the steps to move beyond them in everything i do… im tired of having visions that just stay visions i want to make them a reality! and today while thinking of the past i moved into the future!!!

” don’t let DREAMS just be DREAMS” “make them a reality”

scattered thouhgts….

i have many things i would love to write about but life its so busy i shouldnt even be on right now i need to get ready for concert of prayer im speaking for 5min on the peace God… and i have a mandatory 2nd year  application that is due on friday but its going to take a while because they ask some really deep questions like to name a one where would you like to be in 5 years? which is amazing but to write it out is going to be fun…. any ways God is taking me to a place of deep surrender its humbling and intense and a bit emotional but i want to surrender everything.. which means complete sacrifice… and to end this very scattered message it is storming out side and i love it…..

all day long ive been with jesus….

hey my word press people yes i’m blogging again i know its a record…anyways today i woke up before the sun because i had to be in lakeland by 8am so i left daytona around 530 in the am… crazy i know hey my brother does it three days a week(love ya dan)… anyways so why did i have to be there at 8 am well it has something to do with this lovely thing called discipline and i don’t mean being committed nope i mean getting in trouble yes how you ask well i failed scripture memory test on friday so i had to come in on my day off and write all 147 scriptures three times each…which would add up to 441 scriptures… it took me from 8am till 2pm to finish… good times… at first thought you may think i was completely miserable but actually i have been crazy busy all week so the time alone driving scriptures into my head was just what i needed… it really was refreshing its crazy how the word of God does that…. all day long ive been with jesus… you know you can do that everyday hes always there we just have to acknowledge him…

STOP…and breath

so  i came home this weekend to celebrate my fathers 50th birthday… and i also decided while i was away from masters i would just take some time to reflect on life to rest and observe… i guess i would call it that?… but my family is crazy and there is always something going on… and if there isn’t you feel like you should be starting something… but tonight even thou i haven’t seen a lot of  people and i haven’t seen them  since Christmas and i could definitely find something to do weather it be hang with friends or try once more to have some intervention conversation with my father… tonight i just need to spend some time alone just me and my maker… life will always be busy we have to force our selves to stop and breath…or at least i do i am the kind of person that loves to stay busy because it keeps my mind off other things that i don’t want to think about… but the farther i run the longer it will take me to get back to where i need to be going… so i force myself to stop…and breath to just rest in God…

so today calvary Stopped service and  broke ground for our new building… it is amazing this was the second ground breaking i have been through with  calvary and the last one was only six years ago man God is good… it was great and on some levels i feel like its time to break new ground in my own life to step out in faith… God has been taking me through some hard stuff in my life and its not easy but it is strengthening my faith… which means i have been having to take alot more time to just STOP and breath…

just take some time to stop and Breath in who God is and wants to be in your life…

long time no write…

so ya it has been a very long time since i have written a blog… why you may ask well lets just say life has been completely non-stop for the past month or so and im not going to write any thing long tonight but i want to get back into the habit of writing more blogs… its a great release and i hope other people can learn from things in my life so they wont have to learn the hard way like i usually  do … and lastly it lets people know whats going on in the crazy world of kelly prince.  so ttyl

life… will pass you by

so i went to bed around 3am because i wasn’t tried… and then i woke up at 7am which is crazy because everyone knows i love my sleep but i honestly am not tired so here i am… there is a lot on my mind and i need to get it out…. today is feb, 20 , 2008 and its my nieces birthday she is three years old and i cant believe it i talked to her on the phone this morning she isn’t suppose to be able to talk she was just born or at least that s the way i feel…. i know im not the first one to discover  this but life  goes by so fast…. this really gets me thinking life is literally so short and we waste so much time worrying about what am i going to do instead of just doing and worrying if i do that what will others think? seriously its time to get over ourselves stop worrying so much…. if we confess to stand with Christ alone why do we live as thou we are all alone and that we are in capable of doing things when we are suppose to  know our creator which should make thing a whole lot easier… while those who are “lost” are doing great things and those of us who are suppose to be found… seem to be more confused and lost than the “lost”…. so im am moving forward and really standing on christ alone because i cant do it by myself but with  all things are possible… don’t waste this power and peace that Has been given to you…..

PARTY….

staff is gone for a week in phoenix  time to  PARTY…  no just  kidding  i have  way to much respect  for them and who God has made me to loose all dignity just because they aren’t here to watch my every move… but it is fun to pretend to be rebellious just for a second….

any ways today was weird not having staff around… no katie graham hugs… no alex to keep us in perfect order… no pachi during academics saying “i just love you kelly” aka “your funny” or “ben and steve where are you suppose to be” no one to throw my sarcasm at (matt) and none of his crazy voices…. the lovely jess langdons seat is empty for once and she has left me and karen and amanda with one of her many responsibilities girls roots (i am honored)… there will be no random visits from carrie this week… dan freedom center just didn’t feel as free this week with out you there…. yesmine i dont know how im going to make it through this week with out communications dont they know how important communication is and to top it all off i dont know how im going to make it without my weekly mtg with pj not that i always want to go because he always raises the bar im not sure i can jump any higher you think i would stop walking into them when i know he has mastered all of my ways to change the subject… with all that said I MISS YOU ALL and its only been one day…

BUT i must say the to  second years you are all amazing you can see how much you have changed from the beginning of the year… honestly things ran so smooth that i really did forget staff was gone most of the day… you all did a great job even when somethings got crazy you handled it very well… leah i have to give a personal shout out to you… you are an amazing leader this morning devotional was right on it made me think the rest of the day that is success in my book and might i add she put Egyptian rat screw in our schedule that made my day even better…

Today was amazing i learned that you cant rely on leaders to do everything… You need to put responsibility on your self or what will you do when they really aren’t in your life any more. Do you expect them to call you everyday to check up on you.. i don’t think so… Its time to grow up and age has nothing to do with it. its all about knowledge if you have learned it use it. What good is a car if it just sits in your drive way it will rust, the wheels will go flat and the city may even have it removed if its not being used… is that what you want to do with knowledge you have been given just forget about it because the person who gave it to you isn’t filling it with gas anymore… its time to buy your own gas and use what has been given to you… God has so much if only we would let him mold us and pimp our ride…

p.s i dont why i used a car as an example hey it is what it is have a great day…

its been a while…

i know i haven’t written in a while life has been crazy… in a good way… but honestly im not going ti write anything huge tonight because it has been a long day i went and served tables at a light for the lost dinner it was good there were 800 people there it was amazing… i was in charge  of five tables and might i just add i have no experience in waitressing it was an adventure i will never get upset when my drink is wrong at a restaurant again because no matter how hard i tired i kept on messing up who was who and who had what…it was fun… the entire events purpose was to raise money to buy fire bibles to give away to those who cant get bible or who cant afford one… i don’t know how much they raised but i know it was a lot…. God is so good… well time for some shut eye…

new year…

so Christmas break is over and its a new year… 2007  i can honestly say was a hard year a lot  happened in my life… but through all the junk i learned a lot my issues pushed me closer to God they made me depend on God like i never have before… i strongly believe God will put us in situation to remind us who He is and Has always been we just seem to forget so easily… what was God for you in 2007 how did he change your life?

He trurned my life up side down and im not sure im quite back upright yet but im getting there God has already this year done major things in my life he is continually confirming to me who he promised to be and who i need to be through him… this year is going to be a great year for me i can feel it new beginnings how do i know? God told me… we were at winter retreat  this past weekend and on the last night pastor Jeremy  spoke on run with the ball it was anointed God presence was so heavy in that chapel and God spoke to me and confirmed some things in my life… at the end of the service we all found our own places to pray and God spoke to me and said before you leave here tonight you will be broken for me… at first i thought it was just me because the service was like over so i went and sat back in my row and not even five minutes after one of my leaders came and spoke a word over me and God broke me… dont always think you are just making stuff up in your head God really does speak to us so listen and be ready for what ever he may have for you in this new year and season of your life…

this year will be your best year so far if you let God take control of what really belongs to him in the first place… your life…

LEARN TO LAUGH…

there are going to be things in our lives that will happen that we will have no control over… but we as humans…try to fix thing our way or take control of what was never meant to be in our control to begin with…some things we just will never be able to do ourselves so you have to give it to God he is the only one who can handle those types of things plus he the best one to give anything to… he is all knowing… he is our healer…our father…protector… provider…HE IS OUR EVERYTHING… LET HIM BE IN YOUR LIFE…

it wont be easy at first but it will be worth it
