Its Sunday morning and it has been a rollercoaster of a week. The cosine graph of my life, starting SUPER high, going down SUPER low, and then back up again. My selfishness, tiredness, faithlessness, hopelessness, and stubbornness, brought me down. But God brought me back up. Optimistically, last night was one of the best dates! Got to pick my girl up from a conference and fellowshipped with many people, one being a student from Denver named Travis who was really cool. And it was just so encouraging because when people saw me they were like "CURTIS IS HERE!" haha Greg gave me a super crazy hug and Jeffrey recited the book of Hebrews. I admire these brothers so much. Me and Lisa, Nic and Olivia, and Willie and Katie went on an awesome triple to a GREAT helium air balloon, and GREAT carousel, in a GREAT park. I lost my wallet, but the Lord provided it back for me. We went to In-N-Out, played Bocce Ball, and flew 400 feet in the air in a vibrant orange balloon full of Helium!It truly was a blast. Lisa and I got pretty deep in the car driving to Long Beach and I promised her I'd pray. I'm a man of my word.
Lord Almighty,
Father, amazing counselor, perfect savior, you are beautiful, holy, powerful, and mighty. Thanks for you unswerving immeasurable love that is hotter than the sun. Please give me strength, give me energy, give me peace in my soul to forgive and forget any wrong anyone has done to me. I'm sorry for being so emotionally crazy, and blaming it on other people. I apologize for just being a jerk and not being a disciple all the time. Please heal me, thanks for forgiving me already and helping me to stand up stronger. I pray this time I will be surrendered to YOUR will and not MY will. Please Lord just show me the way and I will follow you. Please help me to be bold enough to make the sacrifices I know I need to make. Help me to be a powerful leader who uses his influence wisely with an immense amount of love. I'm so grateful for you and all that you do. Please help me to understand how blessed and lucky and easy my life truly is.
I want to pray especially especially for my amazing girlfriend Lisa. She is such an awesome powerful beautiful woman full of grace. Please fill her with wisdom as she leads girls and her family to you. I know she's doing a great job and giving her entire heart, please give her that extra boost of energy and strength to really make a difference in the lives of every woman in Irvine. As she goes to class help her to be bold enough to change the lives of her friends around her. Please please please connect her family together. Her immediate family is so disconnected at the moment and I know that if they just give Lisa a chance to share her convictions and the bible with her, they would change their lives. Ipray that family will destroy any hint of hypocrisy and really develop deeper convictions with you. I'm sorry I haven't always been there for Lisa to encourage her through family problems but I know she can do it through your power especially. Help Eva to wake up. I pray she will develop Godly sorrow--not worldly sorrow any longer. And as a result that she would open up to start coming to Lisa's church and when she goes back to school help her to not give into her old ways but rather to be connected to the church. I'm so extremely grateful for Lisa and all that you do through her, help her to know exactly what to say and the tone to say it in as she confronts her family on these types of issues. I'm so grateful for her relationship and encouragemnt and partnership in the gospel, help her to always turn to you in times of need.
Lord your awesome thanks for everything
