Above all, keep loving one another earnestly, since love covers a multitude of sins.
1 Peter 4:8

From Captivating
The Spirit of the Soverign Lord is on me,
because the LORD has anointed me
to preach good news to the poor.
He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted,
to proclaim freedom for the captives
and release from darkness for the prisoners,
to proclaim the year of the LORD’s favor
and the day of vengeance of our God,
to comfort all who mourn,
and provide for those who grieve in Zion-
to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes,
the oil of gladness
instead of mourning,
and a garment of praise
instead of a spirit of despair. (Isaiah 61:1-3)
in more familiar words..
God has sent me on a mission.
I have some great news for you.
God has sent me to restore and release something.
And that something is you.
I am here to give you back your heart and set you free.
I am furious at the Enemy who did this to you, and I will fight against him.
Let me comfort you.
For, dear one, I will bestow beauty upon you
where you have known only devastation.
Joy, in the places of your deep sorrow.
And I will robe your heart in thankful praise
in exchange for your resignation and despair.
He came to restore the glorious creation that you are. And then set you free.. to be yourself.
Proverbs 15:13

A part of PJae’s sermon today talked about how God moved through the emperor and some events in Rome to bring Paul friends. And once Paul was surrounded by these friends he was able to fully devote himself to God and to serve God with a greater purpose and support system.
Reminded once again after today’s sermon how thankful I am to have these girls push me to be a better friend, and most importantly a follower of Christ. God has definitely placed them into my life for a reason, and I am so excited to see where God will lead us and use us in the future. So proud to be friends with these two amazing women in Christ. I hope we serve Him and his Kingdom faithfully together for years to come!!
I am so lucky (:
Jesus, You fill me up
