An opening statement

So my purpose for this blog was originally to chronicle what God is doing in my life in preparation for Trinidad trip in November. But I believe he has greater plans, and I hope this turns into a blog of Praise, a blog of joy and love that will stir others to be that embodied Christ. To live lives that is dedicated to holiness and that as we pray, fast and meditate on His word that we can rejoice together as the hopeless receive hope in Christ.

Micah 6:8 says this,

8 He has showed you, O man, what is good.
And what does the LORD require of you?
To act justly and to love mercy
and to walk humbly with your God.

It has been so funny seeing God speak to many people and confirm his words through revelation in others. What I mean by this is my pastor has been heavy laden with this verse, and we have decided to take this on as our Church backbone if you will. At the same time God continues to break me down in this one scripture. I have heard numerous people quote this scripture just in the last week. I really believe that this is the action that will change our neighborhoods, our cities, our country and the very ends of the earth.

So God, stretch us Oh Lord, continue to break our heart for what breaks yours. Let us be humble and obedient and let this blog be a blog of your mercy. Let it show what people who love you can do by surrendering to you, and sacrificing of our natural, worldly desires. Remind us that we are your children and that our purpose on this earth is bigger than us.

I love you
