So me and my parents went to the healing rooms today at Bethel Church. They have a waiting room where the band plays and a lot of people get healed there as well. The staff calls out words of knowledge and cancer leaves, legs get healed...deaf ears get healed.
See that last part? Deaf ears get healed? My mom has hearing aids. She is almost completely deaf without them. They called out a word of knowledge for ears. My mom has been praying for healing for a long time for her ears. My whole family has been pressing in for it.
Today was the day. She got completely healed. She took her hearing aids out and there was no difference. Both me and my dad were talking in low voices and she could hear us. She normally can't even hear us talking loud, and there was a band in the background too! This is so insanely amazing and I've cried over and prayed for her ears for SUCH a long time.
I just absolutely adore the atmosphere of this place. It has the presence of God everywhere you walk on these grounds. I wanna bring the Spirit of God with me everywhere I go...into Wal*Mart, I want to walk in there with His presence surrounding me and people get healed. YES. This is the life I wanna chase after and live. There is no other way to live. None.
Yes, I want to fall in love. Have kids. Live the American Dream. But THIS...this is the American dream. Absolute, total, real freedom. This is God's vision for America; for the world. So while I will be having a blast falling in love, getting married, and having kids, I am going to pursue the supernatural for the rest of my life.

Redding
Here I am in Redding, not exactly in my new apartment for reasons pertaining to no air conditioning until tomorrow and it being about 100 degrees. Yes. 100. For you Minnesotan folks, it is hard to imagine. My mother just about fainted when she saw those two bright green 9's on my car thermostat thingy. I huzzahed; I like heat! California, is therefore, the best choice. (Despite it being away from my family, friends, boyfriend, church, job...)
We got in at about 1:45 this afternoon and went straight to my leasers apartment, where we proceeded to pay my first months rent, call the gas company and the electric company to get things started up, and go over my contract. We then strolled over (In 99 degree weather) to my apartment, checked it out, had first pick of rooms (being as I'm the first one there).
With being the first person to arrive also comes responsibility. I now have the electric and gas bill in my name and have the duty to collect rent from my three other girls and bring to Mike (The leaser) Eh. It's okay. I need some responsibility in my life. haha.
I cannot describe how excited I am for this new season in my life. A move to a completely different state for an intense 9 months of training how to live the Supernatural naturally, healing the sick and raising the dead for God's glory; a long distance relationship:); renting an apartment for the first time in my life; it's all just so surreal. But I cannot wait. I am ready for this challenge. This is what God has prepared me for and I am so up for it.
As always, please be praying.
Cheers!

how the time flies...
Four Days until I embark on this great adventure of mine that is completely taking me out of my comfort zone.
This has totally gotten harder as the time has come closer for me to leave. I am still super psyched for Cali. I'm going to learn so much. But it's going to be hard to leave my old relationships and new relationships. (one in particular(: )
But...wow. Four days. So much change in so little time.
I ask again for you to be praying for me as I leave and as I am out there:)
Thank you!

Getting Ready, 14 days and counting!
Reality still hasn't set in that I'm moving to California in 14 days to attend a school of ministry. 3 years ago, this would not have even been an option for me!
God is really teaching me about trusting in Him for everything. Yesterday, I was super iffy about tithing and I was like "God. I'm going to Bethel, and I need to save up all of my money. I don't need to give tithe." I really felt like I supposed to but my flesh was like noooo. Anyways, I ended up tithing and God just brought in opportunities, people supporting me, etc. It's incredible how he provides!
Just a few minutes ago, I called the Kohls in Redding to talk about the possibility of transferring to that store. They're going to be calling me back (I'm not sure when) so please be praying for favor. If I don't get the transfer, please be praying that I find something out there that will work perfectly!
On another note, I was talking to a co-worker last night about the school and I got to share with him what it is all about. I also got to share some of my personal testimonies. It seemed like he was interested. He's one of the nicest guys ever and I just planted a seed about a God who loves and heals. I'm really excited to see what God will do in that situation! As I was talking to him, I was just getting super excited about Bethel. I absolutely cannot wait to leave! Although I will miss everyone back home terribly, especially my nephew and family. But God is going to do incredible things.
Cheerio! (I just found out I'm living with a British girl in Cali...working on my British speech.(; )

Before I go.
Hello, everyone I love.
I decided to start this blog to document (in a fun way!) my adventures that happen while I'm at school in California
. This blog is going to tell of my adventures there: healing people, seeing lives changed, how God is changing my life, difficulties...everything. It is so that I can get some prayer coverage while I'm there and just to keep everyone updated. :)
I will frequently ask for prayer. :)
Thank you all for supporting me in this. I love you all so freaking much. <3
