Hey there. Im still in Houston. Lets see where I left off. Tuesday evening Kristi got home from work and we left for Lakewood. I wore my new outfit. We got there and I was so excited to be at LAKEWOOD!! We found us a seat and Crystal Lewis came out and sang first. I was in HEAVEN. :) She only sang 4 songs but it would have been worth if it she just sang one word lol. I of course knew all the songs she did. She did "One Man", "Beauty For Ashes", "People Get Ready" and "Lord I Believe In You". She did GREAT!! After that Lakewoods praise & worship leader and choir came out and did some of their numbers. They were awesome too!! You could totally feel the spirit in that place. After the worship time Beth Moore came out and taught our bible study on Faith and breaking down the phrase "I am Who I am". It was cool. She's a great speaker and funny. After it was over Kristi was a SWEETHEART and bought me Crystal Lewis' "Greatest Hits" CD. I had all the other ones. I actually did have the greatest hits one...it was the first Crystal CD I ever bought when I was 17 but I lost it. And I sure HAVE been missing it. Then I met up with Jessica from the CrystalLewis.com boards! It was cool meeting her! Shes a sweetie and very pretty. It was so weird b/c we had both never met each other before but we went straight up to eaech other and were basically screaming and giggling and acting like giddy little girls...all beecause we had both seen Crystal...and could even see the back of Crystals head during the bible study LOL. We took pics together and then left. I told her I'd call her up next time I was in Houston. Kristi & I left and had prayer time together in her car about some people that I have on my heart heavily to be prayed for. We got back to her house listened toa few Crystal songs and then went to bed. Yesterday was Wednesday. I got up early and rode with Kristito her work which is WAAY across Houston ...like forever away. Then I drove her van back to her house so that I could have it for the day. I got ready and went to one of the malls about 20 minutes from her house. San Jacinto Mall. It was a cool mall...not so much the stores, ,but the setup. It has this big beautiful carousel upstairs overlooking the foodcourt that people can ride. I bought a few things and took some silly pictures in those booth thingies by myself to give to Kristi & her family. I left tehre and got gas, went to Hobby Lobby, walmart, back to the mall, and then finally home. I goto nline for awhile and then studied unntil Kristi got off work. Hernan had picked her up and brought her home. I talked to Kristen & Libby on the phone and then me, Kris, ,and Nicole left for Lakewood again for teh Wed night service. I was bummed out b/c Joel didnt even preach. He did get up there and lead us in prayer but his sister preached. She was good though...but I realy wanted to hear Joel. But God had other plans in store for me so its ok. Kristi took me to eat at the fastfood place "Whataburger" hahahaha. I ate while Kristi went to the grocery store. When she got back I helped her put groceries up and then we listened to her praise &worship CD she bought at Lakewoodand we talked some MORE. It was mostly Kristi doing the talking and I was mostly listening. I love listening to her talk...she's so wise. But it was cool. Now today I am sad b/c its my last full day here. :::TEAR::: Kristi was like "just stay"...and I was thinking "GOSH DONT TEMPT ME" lol...man I wish I didnt have a job! lol. OH WELL. All good things must come to an end I reckon. But I will carry thisweek in my heart always. And I justpraise God for giving me this chance. The chance that I always wanted and yet somewhow turned out to be MORE than I could ever ask for. Thank you Lord. Well. the next time I write I will be in Knoxville. Talk to ya later! Love~ Kerri
