Praise God from whom all blessings come!

It's always awesome to worship and have fellowship with the WCC community - the presence of the HS always is so much more tangible, such that I can't help but feel joy! In many ways, it reminds me of the sensations I have when I serve overseas!

As always, I feel like I've been blessed by the Lord so much more than I deserve; I received specific experiences and confirmations which answered past prayers and helped set what seems to be my next steps into motion!

It's been an amazing journey and process that God's taken me these past 4 years; well, all my life, really... but especially these past few years! Many things are set in motion, and I'm very excited to see where the Lord leads me in faith!

I had the opportunity to rent and try out some lenses for WCC. Oh man, bad move... because now, I'm seriously wanting to buy new equipment!!! Well, it doesn't help that most of my lenses got stolen at a wedding I shot!

But yeah, I'm really drooling over the 35mm f/1.4 L - such a sweet lens! Plus, I still want to replace my 70-200mm f/2.8 L IS and 85mm f/1.8! *sigh*

IHOP, Kansas CIty

I went to Kansas City this past weekend with 2 friends from church to visit the International House of Prayer, which basically is a missions base focused around Spirit-led prayer and worship, 24/7! I wasn't sure what to expect, but I praise God for being an awesome and faithful God! I had an amazing time just basking in His presence - they have these prayer rooms open 24/7 which have different worship teams that rotate every 2 hours, comprised of some seriously talented people!

It's an amazing privilege and blessing to be able to spend so much uninterrupted time in prayer and reading the Word... even more of a blessing that I got to share the experience with 2 other friends, and have some fun yet meaningful fellowship time with each other outside of, well, fellowship! =)

Obviously, there's so much more to share about what I experienced this past weekend, but that's a conversation best done in person. =)

On a completely random note: I couldn't believe that food pretty much cost the same price as in the Bay Area! So much for my preconceived notion that everything in the middle of the country would be dirt cheap! ;P

Thank you Lord for being such a faithful and loving God! Your blessings and grace far exceed what I deserve!
