continued stories of "There is always an adventure with Nicole"

So last night my plans fell through and I was left with nothing to do. (No, I am NOT going to write a poem here!) Allthough I have a rad poem one of my 11 year old kids wrote I should post soon. Anyways I was with my friend Jill and I asked her "What are you doing tonight" She mentioned she was wanting to stand outside the Coldplay concert and listen to some songs. I desided that was a fantastic idea and went along.

We arrived at gate 3 and we could hear, but not well, and it was cold. We asked the guy at the gate "What are the possibilites of us standing inside the door in the warm" He said "Not good" We said "Well it was worth asking" then he told us if we went to gate 7 we could hear better. So off we went, and he was right, we were able to hear better. As we are there we began talking to the lady and she asked us what are favorite song was. We told her "Fix You" so she said when that song came on we could be escorted in to watch it! That was so great!

Oh but the story is not over yet. About 20 minutes into the show she comes to us and takes us into the concert, Row 10, where be then proceed to watch the Coldplay concert for FREE!!!

It was so great!

I remember something that happened that I will blog!

So last Monday night I was walking to a friends house and this guy said "Hey can you help me?" I said sure and walked up. Then he said "Put your hand here" He was directing me to put it on a pole. I went ahead and did so. Then he begins to duct tape my hand to this pole. I got my hand out, and went to my friends place. Then he called the cops and I had to talk to 911 and to some undercover policemen for a while. That was my nights! Haha

I dont know what to write.
Yet there is so much to say.
Hmmmm

Wow what a crazy week!!!

Long story short...I cried alot, and was kinda angry. So then I after a series of events I desided to move out of community and run away. Then I went to leadership and got the okay for it. Funny story...once I got the okay, I didnt want to leave anymore....its pretty hard to rebel against grace. I have also learned more about the value of community. When I was at my lowest point, and had no strength to fight...but having did nothing myself my mind had been transformed. How? I did nothing. I didnt pray about it. I didnt fight against it. I didnt dive into the Word. I did nothing to help. But what I did have was a handful of people coming up to me and saying..."Hey, I prayed for you" I understood to a fuller measure how much breakthrough the prayers of the saints realy can do. So now I have positioned myself in a very volnerable state. But its good. I am feeling so much love and support and grace. I am in a good place. Thank you everyone who prayed for me. Keep Praying.

On a different note. I am spending the weekend in Victoria. The happiest place on earth! Let me tell you how blessed we are. So my friend Mia has a sister who lives out here who was happening to be out of town for the weekend, and we got the place to ourselves. It is a flippin mansion!!!! No joke! Mia, Beracah, Chella and my self then rented a movie for only $2...$2!!! Thats cheeper then the water I bought on the ferry! Then we ordered pizza and got them for free! Is it no wonder I love Victoria so much...

Congratulations Mark and Jill Touzeau

I just got back from the most beautiful wedding I have ever been to.
The ceremony was beautiful. I cried. Jill looked great.
The reception was fun. Good dancing. Good speeches. Met up with people I havent seen in a while. Got to be with friends that I miss.

So I leave home tomorow. I dont think Im looking forward to it. Pray for me, I dont want to go. All I want is to stay here.

I get to have dinner with Bertuzzi and Jovanoski tomorow...that shall be fun.

I hold a weapon in my empty hands.

I stuggle for my last breath, but I have never been so alive.

I have all these questions which have no answer

so I sit here and wait.

Where is the answer to these questions.

I am so alive as I breath my last breath.

My hands are empty holding a dangerous weapon.

I hold a weapon in my empty hands.

A word that has been used alot in the church lately is REVOLUTION.
A big change.
In many Christian bands, songs are arising with the theme REVOLUTION.
P.O.D "Do you want a REVOLUTION"
The theme for many Salvation Army Youth Councils in North America for 2005 and 2006 is REVOLUTION.
Tyndale, publisher of the NIV Bible, quotes "a REVOLUTION" is allready happening.
Campus Ministry at Marshall University has changed there name to the "REVOLUTION Ministries"
I am sure there are many more.

Since spending the last few weeks at my moms I have had a chance to catch up on some media. Commercials, TV, the internet and the radio have been at ready access compared to the availability of it downtown. What I have noticed is REVOLUTION is a common theme not only in the church but in the world aswell.
"REVOLUTION blow-out sale"
"A Nintendo REVLOLUTION"
"This new razor is going to REVOLUTIONise the way you shave"

This doesnt surprise me. There is going to be a REVOLUTION in the Christian Church. And the enemy is going to counterfiet it, and bring upon a REVOLUTION in the world, using of course his biggest weapon, the media.
