Video Blog 22

A deaf Christian 18 year old does her 22nd vlog on youtube in sign language. WRITTEN TRANSCRIPT HERE:
2008 has already been a big year for me.. and I've only lived 5 days of it. I have lost my job, I have lost my car. And.. I have cried so much in the last 5 days. but..

I'm not depressed. I've had times where I felt so weak... I lay on the floor of my bedroom crying for hours.. just laying there crying... Crying out to God. Telling him how I felt.. And he has used it in such a good way.. I really don't know where I would be right now if it wasn't for his voice. His voice keeps me going. It is the one thing in my life that never changes. It remains the same.

And.. I am so overcome with gratefulness for his voice, that little quiet voice, that I can't even start to worry.. about what's going to happen in my life. Because I know that little quiet voice is there. And it's the only thing I can trust. I don't ever want to come across like I have it all together.

Because I can tell you right now, that I don't. Far from it. But somehow... God is good. And He is all I have now. He has blessed me beyond my imagination or expectations.. You know.. I am trying really hard not to cry right now.. this is something really close to my heart right now. I really wish more people understood the voice of God..

Have you ever sat down and listened for that little voice, quiet voice..? Maybe it's a thought in your head from Him.. but.. it will never lead you wrong. I have ran to Him so many times lately.. for comfort and I have grown so much in my understanding of who He is...By listening for that little quiet voice.

I'm curious, since you live in Sacramento area, is your pastor's last name is Brock?

[UMnet]

No. Brock is not my pastor.

I see that God is testing your faith. Stay strong! :-) It always helps me to remember the Bible verse that says when we are weak, He is strong. Just like the song "Jesus Loves Me." :-) The more weak we are, the more opportunity God has to show Himself strong, and also the more opportunity He has to work a miracle for us. Thank God! He will never leave you or forsake you. Be encouraged and hang in there. Usually, when things get hard, it means something great is coming!

We know that God is good and great. We can run to Him at any time. He gives us comfort and loves those who trust in Jesus for His perfect work on the cross as the only true way to eternal life. He gives us all the wisdom we need in his Words where we can get great comfort and joy. So, when you hear those "quiet voice" make sure it's not Satan's voice. Go to His words. Don't be down about your situation; the early christians cried out to God while being stoned to death. We are so blessed today.

I don't see the point in this!!! Could you use subtitles next time????

[MSSDstudent]

Amen! Your video almost makes me want to cry. Wow, God is good! =D

You can "HEAR" his voice. You can actually hear him? Youre Deaf. Just curious... I am Deaf too, I prayed and he has answered my prayer but never "heard" his voice. =]

[owllover73]

I just saw your vlog today. I wish I have video or webcam here. But text is good enough. God never FAIL! He have plan for you in your future life!! DON'T Quit. Yes, we are humans, We always say, "WHY" But God said, TRUST Him. So be patience and wait for HIM. Romans 8:28, "And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called to his purpose" God smile because you remain to depend Him, are you??

JUST DONT THINK OF SUICIDE OK...but its so sad how us humans have stood to this level...to depend on the non existence...Our bodies themselves are capable of so many things and yet we dont use them to our full potential.NOw why is that?....we worry about non important things like GOD,TV,INTERNET,AND ALL THOSE NON IMPORTANT FACTORS....
