My computer is still acting up! I do not know what the problem is... and of course, because I can't, I've been itching to blog more. A lot is going on in my life right now and I promise every five seconds I'm having to say, "Trust, Jordan. Trust." I've also been given a lot of perspective from the Lord lately... I'll be worrying about something and He'll bring something to my mind or someone will tell me some awful story... it's like He's saying, "Jordan, this is not that bad." He's placing my family in places where we really cannot make decisions for ourselves, places where we really don't have a way of solving things. We have literally been on our faces before Him crying out, "LORD! What do we do??" But that's where He wants us, ALL the time. On our faces. Asking HIM where to go, what to do. I'm about to be very transparent because the Lord has really placed it on my heart to be more open in my writing. So, here it goes... I've dealt with a lot of doubt lately... I've allowed the enemy to tell me lies like, "God won't do that for you." or "You really think YOU'RE good enough for Him to reveal that to you?" But my spiritual sister said to me, "Jordan, your sin is not going to keep the Lord from working miracles in your life. It didn't keep Him from sending Jesus!! He CHOSE YOU a long time ago, and He has a specific purpose for you" (those weren't exact words, but that's along the lines of what she said.) That was my awakening. The Lord doesn't love conditionally. His love isn't based on what I do. Therefore, He will fulfill His promises because He says that He will. I can take Him at His Word. Here's a song from Christ for the Nations music that has really blessed my heart lately.... I Will Abide- Christ for the Nations music My heart is burning to lead worship for all the nations... Lord, have Your way.

I haven't had internet connection on my computer for a couple of weeks now. It is the strangest thing! My computer just won't connect to our router. It's the biggest pain...
I have been back in Pensacola for about 3 weeks now, and I won't be in Jackson for another month or so. I'm actually excited to have this time to just rest and be with my family. Schoolwork doesn't seem so bad when I can go out on the beach when I'm finished.
My sweet friends came down here for a few days this week and we had the best time. We just relaxed... We went downtown one day and ate at the most precious cafe and then walked around. Downtown Pensacola is so historic and so fun.
A precious family lost their dad/husband in a fatal car crash a few weeks ago... His wife, Jene, has been so open and honest about her grieving in her blog. Her words will truly bless you. Her husband was SUCH a servant to the Lord, to her, to their children, and to everyone he knew and even to those he didn't know. From reading her blog, I have learned what the Lord intended for a husband and father to be. He was the picture of that. I am grieving with them, and praying for them daily.
