Chrity’s journey through ministry

Trinity Wake up call! February 25, 2008

Filed under: Uncategorized — ckrauter @ 2:11 am

Wow so times are hard for us right now. I am having trouble hearing the Lord’s voice. I was listening to a song called Just in time by Misty Edwards, where she sings this I’ve been crucified with Christ,
Like a rushing river am I
Like a raging torrent inside
I find that I’m full of knowing nothing
I find that I’m hungry for the fullness of Christ

Crucified with Christ, I’ve been crucified with Christ
Yet not I, for one thing I know
You make ALL things beautiful
Just in time

From glory to glory,
From death to life, life to death again
From strength to strength
Deep calls out to deep, Deep calls out to deep, Deep calls out to deep
As I press on!

This song is for me right now this is how i feel i know that i am full of knowing nothing and i am indead hungry for Christ. I am being crucified with Christ and i need to understand that God does in fact make things beautiful in time. I am wanting that time of beauty to come for the past 2 years i have been beaten and hung on the cross and by who? CHRISTIANS! ya sad isn’t it. I want to have you all join me in prayer please pray for my family but pray for the family’s at trinity. There is alot of evil going on there, especially in the administration and leadership area. If someone reads this and gets angry and offended you are probably one of those crucifying people. Step out be a follower in Christ. I am horrified by the acts of throwwing families on the street with no remorse and sympathy. The fact that one of you all who will read this adores the acts of a leader who has been fake in their sympathy and has been the leader of this, i am going to tell you that you will be getting a wake up call from the Lord soon. Open your eyes and see the darkness going on in this area. I need you all to join me in prayer and to help put an end .

License Plates! February 11, 2008

Filed under: Uncategorized — ckrauter @ 1:45 am

So tonight God sent me another license plate. God has been sending me messages on license plates. It seems to be the only way he can get my attention right now. Last week he sent me Psalms :14 and today he sent me psalms 37:4 Which says Take delight in the Lord and he will give you your hearts desires. I have been praying for the Lord to bless me and my family in areas. I am hoping he is telling me he can help me with those things but i need to delight in him. My question is how do you delight in the Lord? If anyone knows i would greatly appreciate it. Anyways tonight i didn’t got o youth group i went grocery shopping with my mom. She has been very sick we think she has the flu. I went to help her so she could get out of the store quick. I think Jake is still mad at me. I just have a feeling he is not very happy with me. I don’t know i wish all of this junk would go away. Koppola says he is hurt and that hurt people hurt people. I think i am pretty guilty in this area too. Well continue to pray for my family for them to get better and that God would truly bless my family. Thank you so much! God Bless,Christy

 

Spiritual Suicide!?! February 10, 2008

Hey guys. Wow i am going through such a hard time right now. I just feel alone. People are probably thinking but Christy you have tons of friends and people who care about you and hang out with you what are you talking about? Well I can’t exactly say i know. I can only explain it as a war in which there are more people on my side than against but the people on my side aren’t doing any fighting so I’m alone. I feel so depressed. I don’t know i have so many classes a day in which i don’t have time to relax. I am fighting with people who i don’t want to fight with. I am acting like a negative horrible person. I am not going to church i have dropped secret keepers and I’m not reading the word. Worship feels dry and doesn’t make me feel close to God at all. I am going to call this post Spiritual Suicide because i am killing my spiritual life and i know it. I am not saying i am proud of it but i am aware. I should be going up to Liberty on Thursday and i am hoping to get something. I was very freaked out last night. Stevie and i rented a movie. We rented Mothman Prophecies. It started off good and ended good but in the middle i felt a demonic presence. Fear ran through my body like crazy. I had to turn on the lights i was crying. I don’t get scared easily but this really freaked me out. Hollywood really does work for some Crazy people and has it’s ties with the wrong forces.I really don’t want to live here anymore. I want to move in with the Koppolas. I had a bad week this week. I got in a fight with Jake and i really don’t like that. The people i care about i feel i am loosing. Koppola cried on the phone with me and we read Psalm 23 out loud and prayed over it. I am just really suffering. I still think Jake hates me. I don’t know i just hate loosing people i actually care about. I put on a face daily of being happy. You can usually tell when i am faking it because i act very immature and hyper. Basically annoying. I have been doing this for weeks. I am blowing up at random times. I just don’t know. All i know is I need prayer. Please pray for me. Thanks! God Bless,Christy

Zion Daniel Koppola! February 1, 2008

Filed under: Uncategorized — ckrauter @ 1:56 am

Yes i am truly happy about the birth of my beautiful God Son Zion. I am so happy to have the Koppola’s in my life and i have no idea what i would do with out them. I am so happy to be feeling better too. The Lord has blessed me greatly this week. First the obvious the birth of a child. Don’t worry pictures will be on here shortly. Also i have had the great opportunity to witness in my American History class at my college. My professor is a strong believer and has been teaching us and mixing salvation in. I am so happy about that. I have also been able to get to talk to Jake. Although you are so annoying and are totally weird i still care about ya man. It has been great to share about my up coming summer adventure along the way with him and him to share his too. I am truly blessed. Thank you! So i have been thinking alot and have had several things come up the Lord is back to talking to me. I have been in a time of serious depression and not hearing the Lord speak. I can’t wait to start reading my book this weekend Unchristian. Oh and i was blessed with a laptop my dad found one and it works great i will still be getting my beautiful mac so this one is not permanent. Anyways i better go continue to pray for all of us. Thank You God Bless,Christy
