So here is an attempt at pulling this site out of the cobwebs two years later (gulp).

Some of you may have been aware of the fact that for the last several years I have been working in Alaska in the addictions/Mental Health field. Let's just say that that stage of life has ended. I have been led into a vastly different location and am currently living for the next little while in Hawaii. Yes! Alaska to Hawaii. Even after a month I still have a hard time believing I am actually living in Hawaii. I stop to think and I wonder, "How did I get here?" It is very surreal. Strange as it is, I'm never really dreamed of coming to Hawaii really. Now I am living here. Funny how that works. I do have to say it's awesome! God has blessed me with opportunities to live in places people dream of going to for vacation. Who ever said serving Jesus had to be horrible? He is good after all right?

While I have only been here for a month as of today, I feel like my life has been utterly changed. My life is so awesome and SO crazy. Seriously, my life has become literally crazy and I LOVE it. If I took the time to type out everything that has happened in just the last month,  # 1: it would take too much room and # 2: You may believe that I have literally gone nuts. That would be the case if God was taken out of the equation but because He exists and because He lives inside of me and because He loves me, I literally live an insane amazing life. Literally! He is truly so good and so mind blowing.

Despite all of the craziness, there is one thing that has not changed and that is sweet, beautiful Jesus. He still softly speaks. He still wants to hang out with me and talk with me. He still loves being alone with me.    He never changes. It's just me that changes.

I am so excited because I feel that God is bringing me closer and closer to the calling He has placed on my life and I am so excited to see what He will do.

More to come later but for now... here's a small glimpse of Maka Pala where I spent the weekend.
