Testing, 1, 2, anyone there?


So yes I know...once again it has been quite a while since I have blogged. With that said this one may kinda be all over the place. Giving lil tidbits of info on what has been going down in our ever so amazing and interesting life! lol


Where to begin...well let's start with my NEW job! Whoohoo! I must say God is the orchestrator of all good things. He most definitely had his hand all over this one. I had been working in the Web stream Dept on the Missions Base at IHOP-KC and really loving the people I was working with. I mean they are some AMAZING people that really made me crave more of what God has for me. Anyhow I knew that this was not where I was going to stay...you know that feeling inside that, "this is not it". With many tough decisions ahead of me and 1 lesson learned of just cause it looks good doesn't mean it's His will...I mustered up the courage to apply for a position within the Media.


I essentially applied for one of two possible positions, but heard there were 3 open. Needless to say I interviewed and was, I guess you would say, selected for a position that I had no idea I would be doing. I within the next week or so accepted the position of Media Dept Production Manager. Whoa, even saying it makes me a lil crazed! ha! I knew very little of what the real inner workings of the Media entail. Now granted I know some things because Ismo is a Director and me working within the Web stream Dept. So again...the Big Guy set me up! He knew exactly where to place me to land me in this position. I am absolutely humbled and terrified all at the same time. I truly want to do a really good job and pray everyday that I would be able to grasp what is thrown at me. I want to be able to be a good leader with a humble heart. To be one that has my eyes so fixed on Him that I'm able to help others carry their heart through this life. Truly asking for God to help me to be Christ-like in all my ways.


Not only did I start this position but I worked my 1st Onething Conference with approx 20, 000 attendees!! Whoohoo! God so rocked us this year and I was soooooo nervous. Ismo was trying to keep focused with working in two place on the Mission Base which both are very demanding during this time...so much to do! But he did such a great job of working all the hours he did and trying to remain in good spirits.


We thank the Lord for 2010 and what it has in store for us. We had a really nice Thanksgiving and Christmas as well. We have so much to celebrate and be thankful for and these holidays give you such an amazing chance to reflect on these things.
