PLEASE CONTINUE TO CHECK ON NATE, TRICIA AND BABY GWEN: http://cfhusband.blogspot.com
SIGNING:
I am proud to report that GOD SHOWED UP on Saturday, January 26th! My publicist thought I'd be doing well to sell 4-5 books in the four hours I was there. I am proud to report that the Lord saw it fit to get books into the hands of 52 different people! Please continue to pray that He OPENS DOORS throughout the month of February! Let us praise HIM for His continuing faithfulness in all of our lives; this is all about Him being glorified through my weaknesses then and now!
THANK YOU to those that came out!
I know a lot of you wanted to be there but couldn't because of scheduling conflicts; watch for more information regarding more signings! :)
IMPORTANT NEWS:
Starting this Friday, February 1st, ongoing prayer and fasting on behalf of the future of Breathtaking Ministries begins!
Breathtaking is obviously moving forward, and I am in need of CLEAR DIRECTION regarding where to take the ministry God has entrusted me with because of it. If you've been following the prayer requests, you have seen that I am desiring for God to reveal to me a CONCISE way to implement the vision He has given me. I know that most of you are aware that I firmly believe God is asking me to take the message of God's sovereignty, even amidst suffering, to the MASSES. I oftentimes call this a proper theology of suffering. I hope that term has not confused anyone!
It's not about selling books, but by getting 'Breathtaking' to a NATIONAL AUDIENCE, the Lord can continue to reveal Himself and a PROPER VIEW of His sovereignty to thousands of people!!
On that note, I need YOUR HELP! You by no means have to let me know, but if you could please devote 1-2 days (if you feel called to do so longer - GREAT) to praying and/or fasting on behalf of Breathtaking, I'd most certainly appreciate it!!
My ministry RUNS ON PRAYER! I have a lot of opportunities before me right now, and I don't want to walk through ANY DOORS without knowing it is from HIM and NO ONE ELSE!
PRAISES & PRAYER REQUESTS:
In the next week, I will be putting together more specific prayer requests for you to lift up on my behalf!
PRAISES:
- My personal vision is being solidified (a proper theology of suffering i.e.proclaiming God's sovereignty and goodness even amidst suffering).
- Teens For Christ has graciously given me office space!
- I'm able to take this semester off of school and still have insurance!
- Breathtaking is being sent forth and touching lives for HIS glory!
- This week's book signing went VERY well; the response has been overwhelming!
- My website (www.ambermetz.com) is currently being updated; plans for further development are in the works!
Continued prayer requests: - THAT GOD WOULD BE GET THE GLORY FOR EVERYTHING!!
- WISDOM regarding how to implement my vision!!
- HUMILITY before my Lord/publisher/family & friends/general public
- DISCERNMENT on my part, as I continue to daily make huge decision
- FAITHFULNESS until the bitter end on my part that I would be OPEN to His leading and direction.
- MY HEALTH - my EBV level is on the RISE (referring to my mono-like symptoms). Cat-scans will be performed on Valentine's Day, February 14th, to determine if there is a specific reason for this. Please pray for STRENGTH
**Also: Don't forget about your opportunity to write a review for Breathtaking at either www.amazon.com or www.barnesandnoble.com! I'm not looking for '5 star' reviews, just honesty from whomever is willing to help! Thank you in advance!
The Lord will glorify Himself through Breathtaking! Please continue to believe that His story will go forward to thousands of individuals for His glory and His alone!!
