Let me tell you, I had an awesome weekend! I also have the greatest friends in the whole world and am so blessed to be a part of such a great community of people known as Horizon Church.

Last week started off pretty rough and when added to everything that has been going on recently really had me at a pretty low place. The guage had reached below empty and I was totally drained and felt everything toppling down on me. However then an amazing thing happened. In this emptiness that was my life Wednesday night God stepped in in some amazing ways. Through friends, songs, movies, books, the Bible, God just really stepped in and when I felt that I was at my weakest He was there. Though this is hard to say because I should have realized it much earlier but I finally realized that He and the people in my life really do love and care for me and that we all are in this together and that we all will be victorious in the Kingdom of God through the amazing power and grace of His son Jesus Christ. What an uplifiting thing to finally realize and the funny thing is it happened in the down time not in the happy and up time.

I feel energized again and am excited to step back into the battle. Yes, there will be ups and downs and times when the journey is hard but that is ok. I embrace the challenges that lie ahead as they will only make the victory sweeter. Like Jonathan in the Bible it is time for me to step out and face the enemy head on and to trust that God will lead me to victory. The odds might look impossible at times and the enemy might seem to strong but my prayer now is that I will have the faith to follow God no matter where He leads and to know that in the end I will be victorious.
