watch out world- he's licensed!

It's official! Jaosn has his license to preach with the Assemblies of God. =) Last night he was honored along with the other candidiates in the last service of the Southern Missouri District Counsel. It was really special. They had a dinner for us and then they were lined up to walk the stage, just like a graduation. It was really nice. I got to walk with him across the stage. I got to be his escort. I had never been to a service for license/ordination. At the end of an anointed and inspired message, they honored those who are being ordained. Wow! What a special time. I ( Jason too) had some waterworks going. I had no idea, but a guy from our church who Jason has been getting to know was ordained. They called all the candidates up. They said a vow, were prayed over, blessed, and then prayed over some more. It was a sweet time. I thought the Southern Missouri district did a great job of making it more like a service than a ceremony. I was impressed.

I was also inspired. I've been thinking lately that I could do more for the Lord and for others. I'm ready and willing.. the desire is there. God, take my heart, my mind, my hands, my feet, my heart.. i'm ready to serve. Lead me and guide me to do what you have called me to do.

We had a few friends come to support us.. some were there for others being licensed/ordained. Our music pastor's wife, Michelle, brought Jason a plate of cookies as a gift. So sweet! We had Brams ice cream with them afterwards. They were telling us a story that the speaker from that night had told in a past sermon, but couldn't remember the ending. Well.. the speaker walked into Brams so Jason took the opportunity to ask him the ending and share a little of his testimony with him.  Jason has no fear. Not a shy bone in his body. I love that! We also ran into my old youth pastor, Brad McAtee and his wife Janae. That's what the Assemblies of God is all about.. it's a big family. When you are at an A/G even.. you just see people you know. Love that!

As i've mentioned before.. i'm soo stinkin proud of my man. He's come through SO MUCH  to get where he is. I can't wait until graduation!
