Casa de Oracion -HOP

Yea I guess as time goes by blogs can eitherget more exciting or slowly die. I don't know where I should put this post becasue I don't have anything really profond to say. I guess I wanted to talk about my time here at CDO. In a nutshell it has been incredible. The more time I'm here the more time I want to be here, God has just been so sweet and loving me in the exact way I needed. I thought Valentine's day would be hard, but it wasn't since I was allowed to spend time with my Valentine Jesus. The Lord is truly growing me and stretching me by changing my perspective on life and what is truly important. I was just talking to God today on the way to CDO and I was thinking about something personal and I just said to God, Lord if whay you have for me is the complete opposite of what I thought and wanted bring it on because I want you even more. It's just been great and the people here are amazing as well. I just love it and I feel right at home which is an answer to prayer. For example I came to CDO to pray but we ended up changing the whole set up of the room (I must admit I didn't do much), but the best part was just hanging out with the guys. As always I was the only female but it was cool,it reminded me of being back in Cleveland and that made me soo happy, b/c I must admit that I miss my guy friends as much as my female friends, so today was a nice blessing. All in all me encanta la casa de oracion (I love the house of prayer), not all has it been a place where the Lord has met and touched me but it has been a home where I feel like the people are family. So thank you God, yet I cherish that saying/song. Make new friends but keep the old, one is silver the other is gold!!!! Love and miss you all from the bottom of my heart.

Awhh! We miss you too Maya!!!!! Cleveland isn't the same w/o you in it!

Your willingness to accept the Lord's plans, no matter what that might be, is very inspiring! It's definitely something I need work with hahah. Remember, the Lord has plans to prosper you! Even if it's the complete opposite of your own plans, the reason is He wants a better plan than you can envision! I know you know that, but I think its a good thing to say because it can feel like the Lord is being cruel before the fullness of that plan is revealed.

Can't wait until you return to Cleveland! =)

Yea, it does feel like that, cruelty before love, but I know it's not. Just the Lord stretching you but we become more like him at the end of it all and that is our prayer request after all. Thanks again for the comment it really did touch my heart.
