Here I am. Sitting along my couch wondering what will happen in a few more days. For I’ll be traveling all the way to Haiti to reach out further to God.
I know that with His strength I’ll be able to carry on and beat my body to mark a new beginning. I pray that I may be able to swiftly grab on to His arms and feel His warmth for I’ll need it on this adventure filled with mystery.
I’ll be leaving a land for 5 days and landing in the midst of brokenness but no matter where I go, the sand I walk on will always be golden for I follow His footsteps. And no matter what, my life belongs to Him and my story is written in the heavens.
I’ll follow wherever you go, for you know my name, my heart and my love for you.
Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and your plans will succeed.
Proverbs 16:3 NIV (via saranghay)
I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do. And if I do what I do not want to do, I agree that the law is good. As it is, it is no longer I myself who do it, but it is sin living in me. I know that nothing good lives in me, that is, in my sinful nature. For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out. For what I do is not the good I want to do; no, the evil I do not want to do—this I keep on doing. Now if I do what I do not want to do, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it.
Romans 7:15-20 (via singinsilence)
He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all—how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things?
Romans 8:32 (via starflavoredspaghettisauce) (via iamlovedbytheking)
Lord I come before You to tell You that I am tired of this. I’m tired of living this life when all I want to do is to serve You. I want to use all the gifts that You’ve given me to tell the world of your grace and glory. I pray that You may use me as a vessel to light paths and to break the walls of many hearts. I want to travel the world and go to places where You don’t exist and tell them of the miracles You’ve done for us. All I want is to capture every moment of your work and therefore I shall ground myself next to You until You can call me again.
I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us.
Romans 8:18 (via chicitychick) (via iamlovedbytheking)
3. He unleashes his lightning beneath the whole heaven and sends it to the ends of the earth.
4. After that comes the sound of his roar; he thunders with his majestic voice. When his voice resounds, he holds nothing back.
5. God’s voice thunders in marvelous ways; he does great things beyond our understanding.
13. He brings the clouds to punish men, or to water his earth and show his love.
My Response: Thus the reason why I shower myself in his love, and the reason why I find a rainy day a delight in my heart.
Your statutes are my heritage forever; they are the joy of my heart. My heart is keeping your decrees to the very end.
