Re-learning who I am in Christ

Since moving back to Fort Collins, I have been noticing that I really need that reminder of who I am in Christ. Here are somethings that God has reminded me of thus far.
1.) I AM CREATED IN THE IMAGE OF GOD.
- I am his daughter and he created me just as he wanted me to be.
"All beautiful you are my darling there is no flaw in you."- Song of Songs 4:7

2.) I AM FORGIVEN.
- God gave his one and only son for his glory and so I could live a life free from the debt of sin.
"for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God."- Romans 3:23

3.) I AM A PART OF THE BODY OF CHRIST.
-  I have been believing a lie that I am not needed. God helped me to remember that I'm a part of the body and that all parts are needed to have the body function properly.

4.) I AM LOVED.
- I've been living with one of my pastors and his family. They have truly allowed me to come into their lives and have treated me as if I am family. Several sisters in Christ have been texting and calling me like crazy to see if I can hang out. Brothers and sisters have gone out of their way to help me in my job search.

All in all, God has reminded me that my identity lies in Christ and not in what others think of me. The greatest thing of all is that God loves me no matter how much of a goober I am.

Back in the Fort

So It has been a couple of days since I moved back to foco. I am staying with one of my pastors and his family untill August 1st. It has been a joy to be back in fellowship on a more constant basis. It is wierd though because I'm not used to people texting and calling me so much. but I am getting used to that. I do miss my brothers and parents. I know that God is calling me to be in Fort Collins and it's incredibly satisfying to obey his will. Today I will be turning in job applications so pray that i would get hired.

Last Post as a Boulder Resident

So one of the pastors at my church invited me to stay with him and his family before my lease starts at the quad. So I will leave today (7/19) for Fort Collins. I'm excited to see what God does there.

wow it's almost 1 a.m. probably should get to sleep. See ya next time Boulder! Hello Fort Collins!

update on my life

Oh my goodness, where do I start? Things have been crazy for me lately. I realized on Sunday that I have three weeks and 1 day left untill I move into my new apartment with my roomates. My roomates are my friend Kristina and my new friend Jianji. Job searching seems to take up alot of my time. Unfortunately, not alot of people in Boulder are willing to hire someone that is going to be moving in a matter of weeks. So my main focus has been looking for jobs in Fort Collins, which is where I am going to be moving to. I have also had several appointments for school in Fort Collins this summer so I've been going to those. Also have been spending time with my friends in Boulder and Denver. I have been also trying to spend some time with family. Somehow in the midst of all that, I am still able to have my quiet times (which are much needed).

There has been some fears and anxieties that have come up about my move to Fort Collins. In 1 Peter 5:7, God tells us to give all of our fears and anxieties to him because he cares for us. So I have been trying to give it all to God and sometimes it's hard. My stubborness gets in the way and I think to myself," Why bother God with my problems when he has bigger fish to fry?" But the truth is that God is Big and he can handle it. He's never done me wrong or breaken a promise so I know I can trust him.

With that said, I am also very excited about my move to Fort Collins. I am going to be starting the Vet Assistant program at Front Range Community College. I'm excited to be going back to my "home" church (Summitview Community Church). I'm excited to see all my friends that live in foco more often. I also am excited because I know in my heart that it is God's will for me to move back to Fort Collins. To me there is nothing better than doing God's will. I'm very excited to be living in the Quad with my roomates and housemates. A long time ago, the quad used to be a house but it is now four apartments.

So I think that I will sign off for now, catch ya later!
