One Week!

At this time next week, I will not be on a computer rather I will be on a plane flying to Lake Tahoe for an awesome summer of serving the love of my life Jesus Christ. Josh left on Saturday and arrived on Sunday in South Asia. He is loving every minute of it and I know God is working in big ways over there! We only communicate via text. He has 50 international text until June 17. So every so often I get a text. This summer is gonna be great for both of us to grow in Christ! Recently I have decided to start digging into some books of the Bible. I have started in Galatians and God has blown my mind and God is also showing me a lot as I continue to read Authentic Beauty by Leslie Ludy. I have came up with some goals for my summer that I feel like I need to work on and that I feel God is working on in me.
Goals for Summer:
1. To rediscover my intimate love relationship with Jesus Christ.
2. To learn my life is not my own and its NOT about me.
3. To give God the glory and not my self, to learn to be humble.
4. To let my life be a response for all Christ has done for me.
5. For the changes that God does in my life to be permanent and NOT just temporary.
This morning as I was having my quiet time I was reading Galatians chapter 3 and God was showing me how I have to live by faith and not by sight. And how we received Christ in salvation by faith yet I expect to know everything right away but thats not how God work He works off faith.So I am striving to do that now in my life. As I got done with my quiet time I noticed something neat in my journal. I journal as I have my quiet time. I finished reading in Galatians about faith and looked down and the verse that was on my page was Hebrews 11:1. Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. Each page has a verse on it at the bottom and that was the one on the page when I finished writing and reading about faith! God sure is awesome!
As I prepare to leave in the next week be praying even more now for the children in Tahoe, my leaders in Tahoe, my team, and for safety. God has big plans and I can't wait to see them unfold.
