Dares are Back On :)

Hello readers, thank the Lord that I'm finally back and ready to go with the dares! Sorry for the sad inconveinence of my car dying half way through launch week. I will have you know I am very pleased for the fact that my car is back and good to go and I am ready to go along with it!

Today's Dare: Dye your hair a different color.

I have so much to catch you up on in life it is crazy so before I dive into actually doing the dare, I'd like to catch you up on what God has been doing in my life.

I did it, I moved out of Horton and down to Stewart (if you aren't familiar with the BIOLA campus, no worries!). It was one of the hardest and best decisions that I've made so far. I still am going to miss seeing some of those girls daily, but I can guarantee that it has been an overall better experience for me.

I am just loving this new year. I recently have plugged in with a new friend group, whom I absolutely adore (if you watch It Takes Two you will get that comment) and am back in a singing group which has seriously rocked my relationship with Christ.

Check out these dares I've been doing while you were gone:

1. I dare you to kiss six boys for your birthday. (On the cheek of course).....Check.
2. I dare you to lose 20 pounds by May. (On pound number 8 as we speak!)....Half Check.
3. I dare you to not wear make-up for a month. (Hello March, here I come!)...On Hold.
4. I dare you to have a Valentine's Day to remember. (This one needs some work!)...Working on it.
5. I dare you to fall in love with God all over again. (This one is my favorite and has been incredible!)

#5 on the list was one of my favorites. Let me tell you, this week especially God has revealed Himself in my life in entirely new ways. Even as I write this, my heart keeps flipping in excitement of how full He has made my life this year.

If you have read "Every Man/Woman or Young Man/Woman's battle", than you know the author, Shannon (for some reason her last name is escaping me.) Well, she came and spoke at BIOLA this entire week and the moment she stood up on Monday morning, tears filled my eyes with passion knowing that she is doing EXACTLY what I want to do with my life.

Even more amazing...she has an online mentorship program that I will be partaking in next September, so please be praying for that. Then, I got to walk the track with her this afternoon and talk about our shared visions for what we would hope God has for men and women in their dating relationships.

She completely affirmed me in my calling, and shared with me that she thought I would be a solid candidate for her program, and that she sees in me the willingness to do it! I am so excited you guys, especially about life right now.

Also, my internship has now added on two hours in the college ministry at church, making it an incredible opportunity for me to share my heart with my own peers. I've loved every minute of building up my own ministry in jr. high and God has been blessing my life with more and more incredible women who have been exemplifying true faith for me these past few weeks.

So, back to tonight's dare.

I will be going back to school to meet up with my new roomie, who I have to say is one of my favorite new people! To grab some berry cool and hit CVS for a 10 dollar dye job...ya, that's right...ubber classy!


I'll let you know how it goes!

Need a dare for tomorrow....Keep them coming :)

Much love and God's blessing,

Kendra
