When God takes me there...

“The day is coming, says the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the people of Israel and Judah. His covenant will not be like the one I made with their ancestors when I took them by the hand and led them out of the land of Egypt. They did not remain faithful to my covenant, so I turned my back on them, says the Lord. But this is the new covenant I will make with the people of Israel on that day, says the Lord:

I will put my laws in their minds, and I will write them on their hearts.
I will be their God, and they will be my people.
And they will not need to teach their neighbors,
nor will they need to teach their relatives, saying, ‘You should know the Lord.’
For everyone, from the least to the greatest, will know me already.
And I will forgive their wickedness,
and I will never again remember their sins.”
 
I love when God takes me right where He wants me. There isn't any greater satisfaction that knowing that you heard His sweet voice. I pray that my mind, my heart, my ears and my soul always be open to YOU...
 
He is MY God. I am His people. Bought with grace.

"We know the love God has for us, and we trust that love. God is love. Those who live in love live in God and God lives in them..."

This day- October 4th, 2009- a milestone. Not only for me, but for 22 others and an entire congregation of people. One of the best moments of my life. In my church. Emotional. Breath taking. Life changing. Inspirational. Encouraging. Hopeful. Proud. And will never be the same. I love my church. I loved this series we just finished and it has been such an eye opener for me to see God's face in the local church. I love people. I love seeing Jesus shine through individuals. I love our leaders, especially Pastor Brent and Karla. Their lives are simply heroic.

22 individuals baptized. First being Kaitlyn Wall. Dearest to my heart, made the most important decision of her life. Many tears. Powerful. I pray the blood of Jesus surround her precious soul, her determined mind, her genuine loving heart... for all her days. Thank you Lord for the life you gave in her. May she unleash her will in place of Yours even at such a young age. A leader. Teacher. World changer. May she remain beautiful. Intimate with only You. Lover of life and Your ways. Passionate about her Creator and His dreams for her. Forgiving of the world and the heart ache it will bring. Let her be prayerful at all times. Teachable in spirit and truth. Hard runner seeking God's promises. Loving. Patient. Kind. Grateful. A fighter. Believer. Dreamer. A passionate woman of God.

I won't forget the lives changed on this day. I love my church. My life never the same....

Your grace overwhelms me...
