******* REVIVAL FIRE!!! *******
Hopefully i can get this out before the clock strikes 12am sunday morning HELLO. I should have posted this sucker yesterday night but I was way pooped. I actually fell asleep in front of the computer as i was waiting for it to load. Oh, well! I want to share a couple other testimonies for your holy ghost stirring pleasure.

Inside our last class for the day with Andrew Davis. We're going over the new testiment under the of ACTS. Andrew for whatever reason shares with us that he's a bit buzzed, because he was drunk in the Holy Ghost in the office. Okay so Andrew starts reading something and miss read a word and everyone starts to laugh, well then the holy ghost stirs Devon and he falls out of his chair. Everyone is laughing. I was laughing so hard that i had to get up and go pee. I truely would have pissed myself. I get back into the room everyone is still laughing and now at me. I sit down and then first year comes in and start laughing a well. Now where all in it together. Andrew by now is drunk and swaying back and forth be for fall on the floor. First year students go back to their room and we've all busted a gut and trying to get this over. Devon is still laughing, okay moving on (well we tried that). Andrew says some word wrong and now i bust up laughing and keep try to stop, but the spirit of God was freakin strong. I kept say "okay, for real time", "okay, no more let's focus". I was wasted for a bit. I had never gotten drunk in the holy ghost before. I remember having Dan-O pray for me to get holy laughter. Two years later here we are. Praise God for that awesome moment. It's funny at the end of class i get this revelation from God, without think i just say it, "It's funny we got drunk in the holy ghost, while learning about the book of Acts where this all took place."

Friday after school I headed downtown to hangout. I went to Wal-Mart to buy some toilet paper to give away for the homeless outreach / BBQ. This minstry called "PROJECT 61" puts on these bbq events for the homeless who live near the "Snake Pit" off the american river bike trail. The event started at 6pm, yet my crew didn't show up until close to 7pm. I brought Davey and his brother Tom who is brothers with Ven. His wife Michael came and so did our friend Becky, they brought some warm coffee in a thingy. We got there and saw a few young folks from the Co-op college group. Brain Hanover & his wife where there helping some women find used close that fit them. I passed out what teepee i had to whoever. Then i went over and just hungout behind the serving table and waited for something to do. While ther i finally got to met Heath who runs this event. He was so excited to finally meet me in person. I've chatted with over myspace since Janurary of this year and now i'm finally here helping. I watched this dudes bike while he got his hotdogs and cup of milk. His name was Dan and he was maybe 50 or 60 something. He was telling how good that warm meal was and how he all most could have missed out on this. Dan told me that three months ago he overcame cancer. He was stuck in Hospice because the cancer he had was so bad that he was dying. He told me that he's not a Religious man, but he asked God to help him survive. He told me he went in for one treatment of kemo and it took the whole cancer away! Praise God, God really came through for Dan. Dan told me that afterwards he, just wanted to get back on the streets and ride around. He didn't like sitting on his butt all day watching tv. His testimony touched me, i even felt honored standing nexted to someone who defeat Cancer by the help of God. After that i helped collect trash and just watched the happy faces off those who got a warm meals. i met a few new folks as well. One guy I met was from the Sacramento Chapter of The Dream Center. Their connected to the one in S.F and L.A., their building is on the same block as the county health center in downtown. This guy was telling me that every friday evening they give out two bags to each person on the bike trail. One bag is of fruit for nutrition and the other is toiletries. Also once a month on a saturday morning they make a warm breakfast for the homeless. I told the man that i would like to join your ministery and i know other who are down to help. Other than that it was an interesting night. The way everything was set up reminded me of the two trip to the slave camps in mexico. Evrything was the same just about. I kept thing about Mexico the whole time i was there.
That night was just awesome. I wish more folks and even "christians" could be a part of these things. If your still reading this one i'm amazed. Two umm whatever i'm gonna say it. ...why is that some of us goto church on wednesdays nights, friday nights and sunday mornings and yet all the stuff we learn, we just keep to our selves? This world is falling apart and people dying each day without the love of God. Where are those who have learned about Gods love, yet haven't used it on the world around them except at church? If this speaks to you get off your fanny and get plugged into a ministry or just be yourself and let God move you to a direction that needs help. I'm not saying don't go to church, i'm saying less functions and more doing. I'll probley get crap for this, but I hate being silent.
