If Grace is an Ocean, We're All Sinking
Before reading this, know this is what the Lord is doing in my heart. I have been so blessed in my upbringing. I am just seeing how much more there is to this life and living for Jesus than I knew before. I hope I can accurately relay what the Lord is revealing to me.
How do I put into words what the Lord is teaching me? He is pretty much tearing apart most (if not all) of what I have ever...
fleshing out is no fun
Today has been a day where I have been constantly warring my flesh it feels like. I am not complaining with what I am about to say, simply showing where the Lord has convicted me.
It all started last night when it took 3 hrs to fall asleep because of loud dance music playing on our street. I woke up not feeling well at all. Every Friday we have D-Group, which is such a blessing. For some reason...
Today was a day of many firsts...
It was my first African church attendance. So wonderful. It started out by everyone coming up to meet us when we walked in.

I met Churchill. He is about to finish Form 6, which is like our senior year of high school....

"Do you trust Me?"
This seems like it should be such a simple question to answer, or at least we always know what we should answer. I mean, we serve the God of all creation (Genesis 1-2). The God who loved us enough to sacrifice His own Son so that we would have the choice of eternity with Him or not (John 3:16). The God that fights for us (Exodus 14:14). The God that protects us (Psalm 91:1-4). The God who works...
