love you guys <3
Counting down the days…
Only 3 more days now until Zach and I leave for YWAM! We’re leaving from Oakland airport at 7:30 am on Thursday! early morning! Today was our last Sunday at church before we go.. It hasn’t really hit me yet that we will be in hawaii this time next week! I’m excited to see what God has in store for us ! :D
Yesterday I took my friend Tatiana home after our New Years event at church and we started talking about Leviticus… I was thinking about what it meant to me when I read it, its alot about the sacrifies that the Israelites had to make. What impacted me was just how amazing Jesus’ sacrifice was. We don’t have to make sacrifices with animals every time we do something wrong. We can come to Jesus and find forgiveness. Then this morning we were singing Our deliverer by Evan Wickham during worship and it has the lines “By Your perfect sacrifice, we’re made perfect in Your sight”. He took all our shame and all our sin and He died an innocent death for us. Now we can have forgiveness through His blood through grace. God is good.
God is also growing my faith so much! Just seeing Him provide for Zach’s YWAM funds. Its been amazing! He is so faithful !
God has commissioned us for the work of saving the lost when He said in Matthew 28 :18-20 , “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
This song is about giving yourselves to be used by God. I love it so much!
Here are the lyrics :
You bled with one desire
In all to bring new life
To a shattered humanity
Death now overcome
Forgiving all and one
You’ve redeemed all humanity
With all our lives we now stand
Declaring loud that
Jesus is God who saves
CHORUS
Commission my soul
With a fire uncontrollable
For this great cause
To save the lost
Open my eyes
To the reason I’m alive, oh’ Lord
I’m ready now
I’ll follow You
Abandon all to be
Your voice, Your hands, Your feet
My life a living sacrifice
Spirit empower me
To set the captives free
My life is an offering
Open the heavens wide
Open the heavens wide
Open the heavens wide
Pour out Your Spirit on us
“
No matter what “chains” you may feel like you are in today, remember, we serve a God who’s in the business of setting people free. He has equipped you with His power, and He has promised to walk with you all the days of your life. When doors look closed all around you, when your surroundings look limited, when you feel like you’re in chains, remember, God is still at work in your life. Keep your hopes up. Keep expecting. Keep believing. Keep looking for His favor and pray for opportunities to be opened to you.(via spiritualinspiration)
“You are not confined to your past, you are not defined by your bondage, You are not alone in your struggles, because God can restore you. “
