"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...
