I don’t know where to begin this post. I’ve been changing so much… growing so much… God has taken my life and set it ablaze. I’m just not who I was … because Jesus has totally rocked me.
The hound of heaven pursued my heart for a long time and I think it finally caught me. The last few months have been absolutely unbelievable. It really is simple. It is all about his love for us.
He has put a vision on my heart. A vision to spread that fire. Some of my old residents have come together. We’re opening up to each other, loving each other, teaching each other, enjoying what God is doing in each of our lives. It is so exciting! It feels a lot like the beginnings of the church. What is even more exciting is that I see a similar vision in several people around me. It smells like God is doing something big in Atlanta and I’m so happy to be in it.
We’ve got the following goals …
1. Love God
2. Love each other
3. Love the world
4. Teach others how to do the same
God has also moved me to join other ministries. I’ll talk more about those in some other post. I honestly can’t put into words everything that is happening. I guess the biggest changes have been the following. I’m not living out of my own effort anymore… God keeps presenting opportunities and blessings … and even the hardships just bring me closer to him. At the beginning of the summer I was worried that the fire would die out but God never fails. I’m full of faith and joy. I’m satisfied with where and who I am. I’m striving for new dreams but with full confidence that God is with me. The worries and fears about my future… the ones that consumed my thoughts… are simply not a problem. I know in whom I believe… and he delivers.
I can’t believe how big his love is.
Praise God!
