A Trial.

Hey Guys ! 

I guess its about time I post something...what do you guys think ? ! 

Well I guess I'll tell you what has been happening with my dance life, I don't know if you guys remember or even know about it, but a few days before I went to Ballet Mag. I was in a car wreck. I was in pain, yes, but thought since God brought everything together and I was able to go, Why not go? So I went. As the few days went by I was in so much pain that I had to sit out and watch class...BTW that is SO hard to do when all you want to be doing is dancing, but with God's help I stayed, sitting, knowing that if I didn't: ONE, I probably would  have made a fool out of myself...because I couldn't do it. TWO, probably the teachers would have taken my head off :) if I danced and they saw I was in pain. So instead of dancing, I watched and stayed out with the rest of the injured people.  So as I was there, my body wasn't feeling the best, but with Gods help I DID it. I made it through! 

When I came back to Alabama, :)  my mom said right away we have to make an appointment with the chiropractor. I wasn't too thrilled about it, but I went. So he checked me..and tells me he is going to put me in therapy, and that I should slow down on dancing, it's aggravating my body. So I'm thinking, Why in the world did we come here? I can keep dancing, whats the big deal?
I still didn't like what he wanted me to do for a whole month, but I started going to therapy for my back and neck. After I was going for a few weeks, the therapy ladies said...I need to do it for a few more weeks.  MY question was, How long until I don't have to come back? :) Just a few weeks ago my chiropractor took me off therapy says it was only aggravating it. and he didn't know why my pain level was where it was. He said by the time people go through therapy for that long they should be on the way to recovering, and I was going downhill. :(  So he suggested doing an MRI to see what is really going on inside, so that's where I'm at today: Not really dancing, taking a few weeks off ... :( 

I did teach class a few weeks ago. which BTW was amazing !!!! 

So I guess I'm also asking for prayer. Prayer that nothing is big going on inside that can't be fixed. Because dancing is a part of me. And I guess what I have been learning through this is....even though I might have to stop dancing, its going to be OK. God is taking it away (for now anyway) for a reason, and I only have to trust Him in what He is doing, 'cause He knows what's going to happen even this minute, as I'm struggling wondering why this one thing that I love so much has to be taken from me. But I guess if I put my trust in my Lord Jesus Christ and let Him be the "driver" of my journey, I have a feeling the journey is going to go a whole lot smoother. What do you think, Guys ? 

This verse has been on my mind for a few weeks now.
 Consider it all joy, my brethren, when you encounter various trials,  knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance.  And let endurance have its perfect result, so that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.

Thank You for reading. 

Give Thanks to the Lord for HE is good HIS love endures FOREVER !

More Pictures !

Hey Everyone.

A few more pictures from Ballet Magnificat! and the ride home!  Ballet Magnificat! this year had a lot of challenging moments, but with God's help I got through it. Dancing was great, I loved every minute of it! God was faithful to help me get through the Bible Studies I was leading. God showed me a lot of things and I was able to open my heart and listen to what He had to say. I'm very glad God doesn't just give up on us. Thank you for all who helped me get to Ballet Magnificat!

Give Thanks to the Lord For He is Good His Love Endures Forever.

Just a few Pictures From Ballet Mag

Leaving on Saturday

Hi Everyone.

Thank you for all your prayers !

I can't believe I'm really leaving on Saturday. I can't wait...but also I'm scared, I will be teaching Bible study for 20 girls and I don't know how I'm going to do it but I pray that God will give me the words to teach and help me be able to be the person God wants me to be. Some of these girls come from hard backgrounds, so just be praying that I will have the strength to say what God wants me to say.

Tomorrow Mission Life begins ! I hope and pray that we will be a picture of God's love, It's going to be a fun week serving people,

Its amazing how sometimes God works things together. Last year while I was doing mission life I asked God. " Please, God, let me be able to do Mission Life next year" but by then I already told myself I was going to Ballet Mag for a whole month. Well it looks like God had other plans. He provided a way for me to go to Ballet Mag and also do Mission Life. even though part of me feels sad not to be going for a month...I am happy that I get to be a part of Mission Life this year, and I know God has something to show me through it.

Trust in the Lord with ALL your Heart

Bible Study !

Hi Everyone.

A lot of you have been asking if i have decided on what i'm going to be doing the bible study on. And so far i couldn't give you an answer. but God has put it on my heart through different people that i should teach on identity. Some of you might know that this will be hard for me since I still have a hard time remembering who i am in Christ. But different Friends have have been encouraging me and telling i CAN do it. I admit this will be a hard one for me to do but I CAN do all things through Christ who gives me strength. So i'm going to trust God to speak through me to these girls. I pray i will be a picture of Christ for them, So please be praying for me while i prepare to do this Bible study. And as i prepare to go physically. Thank you for all the encouragement,

And please keep praying !

Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him and He will make your paths straight.

Hi. Everyone who is reading.
 Thank you for everyone who helped last Monday. It was a great feeling to be able to help others..and to serve my Lord Jesus Christ…We made $41 dollars in tips…we won’t know how much we made through the receipts until CiCi’s bookkeeper has processed them and they call us to come pick up the check, in May sometime. A big thanks to Twila, Naomi, Anna, Nate, and my mom...for all supporting me. Thank you all who came and ate at CiCi’s that night. Tomorrow I have to let Ballet Magnificat! know if I will be coming. Please be Praying with me. I pray that I will be able to make the right choice that God wants me to make, But part of it also depends on my back I don’t know if I will be able to do It. But I pray I will be able..nothing is impossible with God… I pray I will be able to go back to see the girls I helped lead to Christ last year, and to see what God has in store for me while I’m there.
 Tomorrow we will be bagging at Food outlet, I pray that we will be a blessing to them..!
 Thank you all for helping.  

Give thanks to the Lord for He is good His love endures forever!

Hey Guys ! 

Sorry its been a little while since I've written. The next thing of our list of fund raisers...Bagging at Food Outlet, and then serving and cleaning up at Cici's. I am getting ready to do a Ballet Birthday Party once again  :) I want to thank God for letting all these things happen.

In one week I have to let Ballet Magnificat! know if I'm coming this year, And that depends on a few things...one is my back and my ankle, I don't know if physically I can do it, I pray that I will be able to go but I know God is in control and He knows what He wants me to do. 

I want to thank everyone who has and is helping me. I know now it's kind of hard since I'm not sure if I can go but thank you for everything..Thank you for your prayers also !!

Ballet Class

Hello Everyone !

Not much to say…But have a little :) So today like every Monday I help teach a ballet class. Like any other Monday the little girls are very happy and excited to learn, So today I really felt like staying home and not going to teach but I know that isn't really an option so I went…But wow those girls are a blessing to have in our lives as teachers, we think about what the girls are learning and how they should do this move and that we are helping them learn how to dance..but what I found out today is those girls are teaching us different things every week...like patience and love and so on… I am very excited about what God is going to do this year with every girl that comes to class...I pray that we are just as much of a blessing to them as they are for us.

So dancing is awesome or maybe I should say dancing for Jesus is awesome, I learn something different every time I dance. I can’t wait to see what God has in store for us,

Give thanks to the Lord our God and King His love endures FOREVER !

Hello everyone ! 
Wow, I must really want to do this! Yesterday I went to a studio that was freezing COLD and worked there for three hours. I'm applying for a merit scholarship to help for Ballet Magnificat! so yesterday with the help of my teacher, I had about four pages of different exercises to do (combinations of ballet moves) But for the most part it was fun...even though I was in pain all over. My back was hurting and my leg was numb..but I went ahead and got it done since it has to be sent in. Anyhow I was thankful to be done with it...I'm thankful for everyone who has helped me, 

Give thanks to the Lord for He is good His love endures forever !

Dear Friends and Family!

Last year when I was at Ballet Magnificat! lots of people wanted to stay in touch, but it was hard since I could only use the phone or computer a few minutes a day. As I hope to be going back this summer I have been thinking it would be a good idea to start a blog! Those who would like to, can know details as I'm preparing and while I'm there and, after I get back, hear the wonderful stories of God's working.

So it's about a weeks until the dinner. Again this year, Help Kaitlyn Get to Ballet Magnificat's Intensive is sponsoring a Valentine’s Couples dinner to be held at Fountain of Grace church. I've been planning and preparing and making lists of different couples who are coming and those who are helping. Also my mother has been talking to  my GREAT! Uncle about different menu possibilities. This week Mr. Doug has been experimenting with desserts. Friends and family have helped and are helping me get this together. Although sometimes it feels like this isn't going to work, we always can depend on a God who will work things out for Good. There are so many people who are helping me put things together. I am blessed to have every one of these people in my life.

So far these are the things that I have been able to get together with the help of others:

I have a trellis that my brother made for my sister's wedding that we will be using for couples to get their pictures together. We've also gotten roses for the trellis, I can't believe how many I found:) We've gotten lots of candles and ribbons and many other things. So I guess I will end this short:) though there's lots more happening.  Before I end this  I want to thank everyone who has helped and is helping. I am so very thankful. I want to thank God for giving us all different ideas and for making this dinner possible. I pray that everyone who comes will be blessed and walk away with something that God has shown them!

Thanks for reading!

Give thanks to the Lord our God and King His love endures forever!
