He Has Set His Affection On Us
To the Lord your God belongs the heavens, even the highest heavens the earth and everything in it. Yet the Lord set his affection on your forefathers and loved them, and he chose you, their descendants above all the nations
Three more weeks
That’s it. Just three more weeks of being in this environment before I’m sent out to see if I can actually fly on my own. My leaders asked if I would be the student leader for my outreach team since right now we only have one leader and he is a guy. I take this as an incredible privilege and honor. There are amazing women on my team and I love that I get to serve them and encourage them to be all that Jesus created them to be.
It’s also a bit frightening. Sometimes I think, come on Jesus, can’t I be normal for once and go at the normal pace? But no. And really, I am grateful. He believes in me so much. He trusts me so much. His pace is much faster than mine. He’s taking me somewhere and time is of the essence.
The other day in the prayer room we were singing the song, “The More I Seek You.” The line, lean back against you and breathe, suddenly took on new meaning. Yes, Jesus, I’m leaning back on you. If you’re not there, I’m doomed. That’s how I plan to lead; fully aware of my inadequacies and weaknesses leaning on Jesus.
I leave for Kosovo on March 30th and these feet won’t be back on this island until June 13th. Please pray for my team. For the 11 of us to encounter the Lord daily and to simply be lovers of him no matter where we are and what we’re doing. I’d love your prayers too. Prayers that I can stay in that posture of leaning on Jesus.
Lots of love and gratitude.

About Me
I’m enamored with a man named Jesus and because of this love I am seeking to share Him with anyone and everyone. I plan to waste my life on Him so that He might receive love and glory and the reward of His sufferings.
