When you just know...

I've been so busy lately. There's that 4 letter word: busy! Currently, I'm working on that. Some days you just know that you know that you know... Today's one of those days. Change is in the air. Fall is approaching, but I'm talking change in another season. Uncertainty is everywhere here except for one place (what the change is relying on)...JESUS. My family has recently made some incredible leaps of faith in our lives which require bold trust in God. The best part is I have complete peace. Overwhelming peace that I don't even understand. Thank You Jesus! Like I said, some days you just know that you know!

Like where I'm rooted...I absolutely LOVE our church and Pastor Dino. This is what church is supposed to be. Passionate! Creative! Fully Committed! No walls or traditions keeping people pinned in, but freedom to be who God purposed when He created each of us and using our gifts out in the community. No prerequisites to be reached out to. You don't have to be a member of our church or wear a certain style clothes or anything. We just serve everyone. Kinda reminds me of what I read about Jesus. Just reaching out in the community where there is a need. I wish every church in the world would grasp that concept. What an amazing world we would live in if that were to take root globally?! What is it that stops that from happening? What can be done to tear down that wall?

Tonight we had Vision Night! Pastor shared his heart about our future with the church. We had incredible worship (we are sooooo spoiled)!! Good wings and lots of fellowship! Awesome stuff!! I believe that God has purposely put me in this church for a reason. Unlike the above, I don't see this move being a season but a life time commitment. A daughter of the house. I never want to leave! (well, until Jesus comes to get me, of course) I am so very excited about what God is doing through HPC around the world. I am in awe at the fact that HE sees value and worth in me to plant me in something that is so beyond my capabilities and larger than I can ever be.

Thank You, Jesus, for loving me enough not to give up on me, but to wait patiently for me to realize that You are the only way. Thank You for giving up everything for me so that I could be free. Amazingly I finally get it! Please watch over our Pastors. Give them wisdom and discernment. Help them to see things from Your perspective. Give them ears to hear your whispers and eyes to see You view. Protect them from deceit and evil. Guide there coming and going. Lay out their steps and may they be nothing but obedient to what You desire. Strengthen their marriages (if they are married) and bless their families ...provide their needs...bless their socks off in a way that only You can do! We need You so very much! I love You more than words can ever express. Be my delight! May I never stop being in awe of YOU! In Jesus precious name!
