i am second.
so last night i was stumbling around the internet in search for some encouragement. why was i looking on the internet for encouragement? good question! but then there it was a facebook status that said "Kenny wants everybody to go to http://www.iamsecond.com/" simple enough. so i went. this site is just full of video-testimonies of real people giving their stories. musicians. actors. athletes. business people. your next door neighbor. everyday people. and i am across one in particular that i came away with the fulfillment i was in search for... encouragement!
this particular story is one of Brian "Head" Welch, who is formally of the hard-rock band, Korn. it really touched my heart and i hope it can bless you the way that it blessed me last night.
live love! bobby bo.

God is neat.
Today is our final day here and this week was our debrief week to relfect on how sweet God is and what He has done in each of us the past 2 months. and one day we were to answer the question, "where are you doing and why are you going" and here is my response from my personal journal.
i am going to thailand because i know and trust that God has something huge for me. God has a way of being so rediculous. but in the best way possible. i love my maker so much. to me, what is the point of worrying about what is going to happen in the future. i am just wasting my time, literally. because if i dwell, i will not get that time back. ever. i have one life here on earth and how will i be a world changer if i am by myself asking God, how or when or why or where or what or who. His word says that He will be with us. its so simple! "i will be with you" how comforting! there are millions and millions of followers doing work for the body of christ but God knows bobby bo. He has a plan specifically designed for me. who can stop God's plans? no one. nothing. God is everywhere. he is in the air. he is in the trees and in the leaves. he is in the water and in the mountains. he is in the valleys and the fields that cover hthis world. He is living inside of me. living inside of us each. my make is huge. my maker is awesome. my maker has dreams and desires designed for bobby. how great is that. real great.
and then the day after, i posed the question..what do you want to give praise to God for and what are you thankful for in this time...
i want to praise the father for just bringing me back here. im thankful for the way God has used myself and the team to fulfill the great commission according to his will. it was really showing how faithful he is and all the goodness that He is. he is goodness and love. 1john talks all about that love. love! love! love! "we love because he loved us first. 1john 4:19. he loved us FIRST. we were in his mind before our own parents minds. we were are and always will be his dream. his lift. his soldier. i love that. that he chose me specifically fo thailand from december 7 til february 9. everyday he used me. whether i felt it or not. he used me. he used the team to minister to thousands of people. thats so sweet. how many people we were able to witness to. build relationship. build into lives. minister into hearts. fulfill his will. plant his seeds. soooo good!

number 4
Loves like a hurricane, I am a tree,
Bending beneath the weight of his wind and mercy.
When all of a sudden,
I am unaware of these afflictions eclipsed by glory,
And I realize just how beautiful You are,
And how great Your affections are for me.
We are His portion and He is our prize,
Drawn to redemption by the grace in His eyes,
If grace is an ocean, we’re all sinking.
So Heaven meets earth like a sloppy wet kiss,
And the heart turns violently inside of my chest,
I don’t have time to maintain these regrets,
When I think about, the way He loves us.

FoR the grace of God that bRings salvation as appeared to all men.
it teaches us to say "No" to ungodliness and woRldly passions, and to live self-contRolled, upRight and godly lives in this present age.
Grace - an undeserved favor or gift; the undeserved forgiveness, kindness and mercy that God gives us.
look at that! its so great! and so true! we are so undeserving off the goodness that He brings our way. the undeserving mercy and grace that He has upon us no matter our situation. this morning , students just gave up things that truly hold them back from entering into deeper intimacy with God, things that held them back from living a "normal" life. things that are just distracting. and what did God do to them this morning? gave them grace. gave them mercy. his GRACE APPEARED PRESENT!! sooooo good!
