Here We Are.

So. Things are changing fast for me still. I feel like I've been in transition since the Lord called me to do the Burn Internship in January. I can't believe it will be January again pretty soon!-the start of a new year!
Speaking of January, I will not be core group leading the next Burn Internship. I will be starting the Intro Staff program at the Prayer Furnace. Intro is 6mths long and I will be raising my own support hardcore. I need $350/mth, which includes rent+utilities, 2 meals a day for 4 days (We fast Mondays.), & two Bible classes for free. I guess I'll be attempting to cook some Chinese food on the weekends!! :) I will be considered a full-time missionary at the base. Prayer room and service hours add up to 42 hrs a week.

I'm really glad that the Lord has made this transition clear. Wednesday morning, He kept telling me I was His songbird. I knew He was directing me to be a worship leader. I also got confirmation through other people. There are so many things I have to learn! For example, on Tuesday, I learned that water takes 26 mins to get your vocal chords. That's why drinking water on stage doesn't help for the first half an hour :/
But now I know!
I am excited to live with the girls from this internship again! All but one of my girls from my core group will be doing Intro too. :)
Of course I wish all of them would stay in Fredericksburg, but if they feel the Lord is leading them elsewhere. Then, what can I do but let them go. I love living in community with my sisters in Christ. Such a privilege! And everyday, I get so encouraged by how they carry the presence of God and their love. Another perk of Intro is TIME! I've been putting off art and poetry for a while...it seems like forever! I'm so grateful that the Lord has given me this anointing for worship. I've played piano for a couple sets for this past month or so. And I'm eager for the time to cultivate this anointing. Thank You, Jesus!

Please partner with me on what the Lord is doing my life. Pray about it. If you want to support me monthly or give a one-time gift, this is the link above. Just type my name in the white box on the page. *Every donation is tax-deductible*

If the Lord is not calling you to give at this time, please consider praying for my needs and revelation of the Father heart. I'm really hungry to go deep into who God is as my Father and who I am as His daughter.

Blessings in the Lord Jesus Christ,
Eva

Splash me a little. Awaken me a little. Surprise me a little.

Happy morning!

This past Friday, I was super stressed about direction for the coming season. Before Thursday, I was SO sure that I was going to be core group leading again for the Spring Burn Internship. But now I am torn in the middle between two options. I can core group lead again OR I can go onto Intro Staff.
Friday, I could not pay attention at the Burn Service. I stepped out even before worship ended and my friend, Kayla, talked with me outside of the service. We talked about our fears about the future. She prayed for me, but I think my attitude kept me from receiving much from the Lord that night.
But! On Saturday, the Lord really gave me peace about the direction He was to send me in. Praise God!!
...As of now, I am leaning toward doing Intro Staff for various reasons that I will share later :) But I haven't gotten a 100%, definite go from the Lord, so I'm still praying about it.

For all who read this, please pray for me.
Blessings,

Eva
