Hi. My name is Hannah and I can’t wait to spend the day with Kjaere at the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk!
City life...
Today while walking to a coffee shop I was asked if I had any pot, walked pass cops pouring beer into the gutter from busting a guy drinking, and when at the coffee shop a woman started yelling then grabbed someone’s drink and hurled it across the shop… inches away from hitting me. All this before 10am.
I then went to the public library to study and afterwords sat for a long time praying across from a building we are trying to get for Reality SF.
I wandered back towards my house and a young man caught my eye. I stopped to talk to him and he was shocked and so thankful I did. He was ashamed and could barely ask me his question.
He said he knew if he asked for money, I probably wouldn’t trust him but what he really wanted was something to eat. “I’m starving,” he said “and in that shop right there they have yogurt. Would you buy me one?”
I get asked for money everyday. I honestly rarely have cash on me. I’m broke myself being out of work for a month. But all I could think of was the passage that says “what you do for the least of these, you do for me.”
So I bought the stranger on the street a yogurt and a protein drink. His face lit up when I handed him the bag. I walked away knowing I’d probably have to skip lunch today and having no clue when I’d ever see a paycheck again.
But my heart was overflowing almost to the point of tears. Today Bruce will not be hungry.
It was one man in a city of much need. But I knew the Lord was asking me to give beyond what I had and trust Him for the rest. This is my home, my community, my neighbors. Some live in houses some live on park benches. But God so loved the world and in the world He has placed me as His ambassador. I pray that all that I am reflects all that He is. Amen.
God, to be God, must be infinate in all that He is. He must have no bound and no limit, no stopping place, no point beyond which He can’t go. When you think of God or anything about God, you’ll have to think infinitely about God.

The Church will come out of her doldrums when we find out that salvation is not a light bulb only, that it is not an insurance policy against hell only, but that it is a gateway into God and that God is all that we would have and can desire.

What God did today!
So yesterday I really felt like the Lord was telling me to expect something to happen in regards to me getting a job today. Being here for almost 3 weeks and rent due on Sunday with no job thus far, has been pretty crazy.
So today went on. Nothing happened. I began to get depressed. Feeling at a lost. Wondering why I’m even here. At 7pm some friends asked if I’d meet up with them in Daly City. I had money on a BART (Subway) card so I decided I might as well.
I love riding the BART. And on the BART I felt the Lord speaking to me again. Asking me if anything was impossible for Him? Reminding me that the day wasn’t over yet.
I got off the BART 10 minutes before my friends got there. At about 8pm I get an unknown call from a 415 #. It was a woman who runs a preschool that I applied to work at. And she wanted to know if I can come in tomorrow for an interview at 9am! Thank You Jesus!
The way God works is such a mystery and so very wonderful and amazing. All glory to Him and please pray for me tomorrow!
Faith must be tried before the reality of faith is actual… Faith is a tremendously active principle which always puts Jesus Christ first… God brings us into circumstances in order to educate our faith, because the nature of faith is to make its object real… Faith is the whole man rightly related to God by the power of the Spirit of Jesus Christ.

A year of braces… then and now… only 1 more year to go! Then they were all white and my teeth a bit more crooked. Now they have a bit of pink and my teeth are getting straighter. So what’s your vote - stay with the pink bands or a different color?
10/30 Miraculous!!
Prayer worked! Daisy has made a miraculous turn around since yesterday and is doing much better today! Praise the Lord! She was able to spend the night at home.
Please pray for wisdom in how to proceed with treatment and for protection from the swine flu since people close to Daisy have it.
