Remember It

"In his heart a man plans his course,
but the Lord determines his steps."
Proverbs 16:9



For some time I have felt incredibly blessed to know God in a deep way.  This past year I've been so moved by God that it is so difficult to even put into words.  In my nervous laughter I try to explain it but somehow it just sounds like a crazy person talking.  OK JM would say I am a crazy person but that is besides the point.  Last year at this time I did not know what God had in store for me personally.  I can't really remember how I felt but I know what it looked like to me. Today I can not get through the day without thinking about how rich I am in Christ's love.  This verse was given to me on 2-16-2011.  My friend began praying.  I started seeing God's vision and to be truly honest it scares the crap out of me.  But here I am.  It does not scare me like I am afraid, it scares me in the sense that who am I that God would choose me?  Why me?  Why not? No really, who am I?  No one really. Just someone truly seeking to follow after Christ and try with all that I have to love his people.  That is it.  Nothing more. Love people.  That is SO not my nature.  Especially when love never came unconditionally in my life.  I always felt like I had to earn it.  Today my heart pounds to share God's love.  TO be his hands and feet as He has shone to me. 

This photo reminds me of his calling on my life and his love for his people.

Be blessed for Christ Lord Jesus LOVES you deeply. 
Remember it.
