Country Girl, City Life.


I have been in LA for 4 months and I don't think that I officially appreciated it until last night.
I had the pleasure of attending world renowned, Australia group,Hillsong Live with some fellow friends and as we were driving into the city, the sky illuminated by the skyscrapers, it was then that I realized, I live here. This country girl is now a city girl and I love it.

What topped it off was being in the Nokia Theater with over 7,000 other Jesus lovers and worshiping Him. The most amazing moment was when Hillsong stopped playing and it was just the crowd, voices and hands raised to worship our Lord. There is nothing like the sound of others singing along with you and imagining the Lord and His angels rejoicing at the sound. (Although I do apologize to those around me, the Lord said make a joyful noise, not a good one). As we were driving home, 30 minutes, versus my previous 3-4 hours, I sat in the car and reflected on my life and how truly blessed I am. The theme of the night, was God is Able. And that, He is. He is able to take this born and raised country girl, place her in the city at a church on the corner of 255th and Oak and use her how she never thought possible. Don't EVER doubt where God is taking you or what He wants to do with you. Our timing is not God's timing, but His timing is PERFECT!!!
