1st Weekend at Bethel

Okay so my first weekend was spent looking around the town and then relaxing at home and preparing for Joyland. What an awesome time it was to watch and be a part of our first service in the Naz building. Great service last night and all I could think was we are a different church. We are starting out being what church was intended to be. It was amazing to see the people stand in line for hours to have their feet washed. I am sorry I missed that, but the humility of everyone (even leaders) was humbling to see. Thank you all. I'm looking forward to next week.

Sunday I went to first service like they asked us to, and it was awesome. Again the Lord revealed who He was as Jesus in the Trinity. I didn't even have to ask. He knows I want to know. It was beautiful. At least with this one I can describe Him. It first started out with me dancing slowly with my feet on top of His and then as we continued to dance we were cheek to cheek and swaying back and forth and then He was dipping me, spinning and we were ballroom dancing. It revealed to me that He is the Lover of my soul. I just stood there swaying for a long time while this dance of twirls, dips and heart to heart intimacy happened. I realize now how one we are and how much He just wants to be with me. It was so lovely. Like watching two people who were solely focused on each other and there was no one else in the room. I'm not sure why I am sharing this part with you but I believe it must mean someone needs to read this and know.

Then Kris V. spoke on fatherhood and it was wonderful. Some of it was a little about what he talked about earlier but a lot was about giving your children to the Lord and knowing when to change roles and allow the Lord to be their Father. Also, coming to the realization that the Father loves our children more than we do, and that He is their Father! It was really great. You can watch it on ibethel.tv for more details.

I am planning on attending the prayer rooms in the Upper Room tonight at 6:00 and then a night of worship at 7:00. Who knows maybe He will reveal the Father to me. It wouldn't surprise me at all. He is a good daddy and doesn't hold back if we just ask.

I feel like I haven't learned so much for the practical worship leading stuff but I am changing. I am hoping to possibly purchase the school and maybe do some teachings or classes where the worship ministry listens and we go through some stuff. I find that my heart is ripe for the Lord to change me or reveal stuff to me in a way I never realized was possible. I am a friend of God's and He is proving that by the revelation He is showing me. I'll let you know how prayer and worship go tonight. I know some of you will be watching live. If you are look for a purple and white plaid shirt and that will be me.
