Heartbeat

Reality: God is bigger than me. God is wiser than me, and God can speak through me. My name for Jesus yesterday was specifically the Faithful One. We were challenged to just allow the Lord to speak through us to other people in our training camp last night, a.k.a. prophesy. Have I ever really just sat and listened long enough, or even just genuine enough to hear the Lord speak to me specifically, NO. Not in this way. I thought that I had an idea just how much He wants, desperately wants to use each of us. He chose us, so why not use us?! Prophesy is the idea that we allowed Jesus, invited...

God’s Voice

God was definitely presence this week and as I was standing in the presence of Him last night with some of the most amazing people I have ever met in my life, He revealed himself to me. The challenge we had was to listen to what God had to say to the people around us, through us.

Redeemed

Hi friends!! 🙂  So this is pretty much the same post that I made on my team blog, and so now I am posting this as a “first blog” on my adventure with the Lord to India! I am from Dallas, Texas and one of 6 in my family. I have 3 sisters, so yes my dad is the only male in the house. My dad has been a pastor my whole life and so I have been raised in an incredible Christian home where the love is bountiful. My mom has been a stay at home mom most my life, but for the past 5 years has also taken on working at the Container Store. My older sister is a sophomore at Texas Tech...
