Because it's been long enough w/out a post.

Merry Christmas, Happy New Year and all that jazz....
Right now, i'm sitting here at work, listening to pandora with my Earth, Wind and Fire station playing...singing along to 'me and mrs. jones' by Billy Paul and all these other old jams that most people are forgetting about. I just thought to myself, "man its been a while since i've posted a blog...(pause)...maybe people are wondering what's going on with me?"
but it probably doesn't matter that much, whether i post or not. so lets catch up a little bit than.

I stayed here in the C (chicago) for my winter break to work and make some money to pay for my school bill. Thank the Lord for the opportunity to work..amen
I've been working a schedule of for days on 8-12-12-12hr shifts and then 3 day off.
Yes, i worked Christmas and New Years, it was just fine, no i'm not sad that I did not go home, this is part of the maturing process of becoming a man I believe. Living without all the luxuries and privileges of even doing something like "going home for holidays or breaks" because I truly believe that it should not be such a big deal... Love your family, miss them and your friends and your home but continue on in the Lord, glorifying Him and doing what you must no matter the circumstance... so don't feel bad for me, feel bad for anyone who's back home missing me and wishing I was still there.

Now last semester was busy and difficult. Between working in between everything and not managing time best outside of work and classes with groups and friends and more. I definitely did not do as well as i should or could have...this I must learn from. I am looking forward to this semester though. My school, work and church activity is all better planned and put together and I an openly waiting and anticipating and looking at what God is doing. I am so very blessed to be included and able to join Him, this is such a privilege.

So yea, that's where I am right now... pray for me and my school. My new Chicago church home-
Reborn Community Church, in Garfield
if you wanna know, Garfield Park area is one of the worst in Chicago(literally, probably the one of the top 3) and in much need of the Gospel and the hand, power, grace, mercy, provision and blessing of God...so pray for us as we do ministry being a small church in a big city following the Lord as he leads...ok that's all...i'll be back soon. Love yall

shout out to my Mountain View Community Church family...I will use all the Lord has bless with with while with you and let him use me here. Thank you, I thank God for you all, I love you.
