Words

  There’s a reason why you’re here on this Earth. God handpicked you to be here in and read this. We are all hand-picked by God. He molded us and shaped us. He knew us by name and he made us in his own image.    11 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. (Jeremiah29:11 NIV)   We all have a problem with “ I want “ or “I did this” but in reality it was God. He is the Potter.  He is the molder. He is our Master He is Our...

Through The Eyes Of A Child

  These eyes. I wonder what they see every day. I wonder what goes on behind the surface. What does she think about? What does she contemplate? What does she want out of life? What does she want to be when she grows older? What thoughts circle through her mind late at night, when she can’t sleep? As she sits and eats her lunch, long after the other children are done eating, I wonder if she enjoys the alone time. I wonder what her eyes have seen. I wonder how different our lives are. I wonder how our lives are similar. After all, we are both God’s children. We are both...

Worship

We have worship every Monday nights. Pele and Maddy are in charge of it. They choose the Songs and lead it. God already knows that He’s worthy and that He is good. He is more than worthy and He is way too Good for us. When we worship not only is it for Him but it is for us too. We need worship time so that we can remember how good he is. Sometimes we can forget how good He is. Such as we forget that He made the trees, plant, the air we breathe, your wife/husband, your son/daughter,  your sister/brother and your heartaches. We should always worship when those heartaches...

2/3 Done and a Weekend of Experiences

     So the days have been flying by, faster then I can count them. Quicker then I can comprehend, the time is passing. There are many ways I could say that I have 1 month left and that manual labor is going well.      Our team got to go to Chiang Mai for a long weekend to rejuvenate since our host was on a birthday vacation with her family. I went with the team to sticky falls, grand canyon water park, got to take a Thai cooking class, and got a blind massage with my team leader. There was also a World Race team there that invited us to their worship night....

How Deep the Father’s Love

Humans struggle so often with feelings of discontentment.  We search desperately for fulfillment, for joy, for light.  We delve into the darkest parts of our souls trying to find purpose and meaning.  We lose ourselves in our efforts to find ourselves and spiral out of control as we try to hold everything together. But God calls us to something higher.  He calls us to pursue Him and to rest in Him.  He calls us to seek Him in the high places and in the low places.  He calls us to be aware of who we are in Him and of the truth He declares over us.  He calls...
