POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

🌟love is a risk, one of the biggest lessons I’ve learned post grad

🌟loving the church, the people of God, and the work God has called us to is a risk. a risk of being hurt, betrayed, or challenged in the debts of our theology

🌟loving a parent, whether we believe it or not, is a risk. a risk of losing your independence yet a risk we are called to take as believers, laying down our lives for other and holding the tension of our own story

🌟loving a partner is a risk. your heart is exposed in the hands of another. its one of the scariest things yet.

🌟life is full of risk. but risk that is safe to exist in the arms of Jesus. at the end of the day I have learned to sit and play in Gods sandbox, where love and risk can be explored with curiosity and free of shame or condemnation.

the best you can do as a young follower of Jesus is give him your YES. I promise, the cost is worth it.

to our homes, our cities, and to the ends of the earth we will go!

The Holy Spirit recently convicted me to walk in deeper boldness, even in moments of deep human fear.

I found myself not creating or not being obedient to the voice of God simply because I was scared of what a few people might think. I also found myself not moving and creating in faith because I wasn’t receiving the applause of those that I wanted.

But faithfulness, boldness and obedience do not come as a product of our surroundings they come as a product of the work of the Holy Spirit alive within us leading us down the narrow road.

So I encourage you fellow Christian, walk in boldness forThe Father has not given us a spirit of fear but of love power and a sound mind.

episode 2 - yeah so post grad is not the dream i thought it would be… and with that come SO much grief, pain, and soul searching.

i’ve never been so desperate for the face of Jesus. and its all been because i hear the voice of cynicism calling to me on a daily basis. Truly, the Lord is working in ways too vast for me. but hopefully at some point in this season, I will be able to see him more clearly.

video diaries are SOOOO back. This time, post grad edition :)

these past 2 weeks of post grad have been harder than expected… but im honestly curious to see not just what God is up to, but what aspects of his character I will get to know deeper. He IS the aim!

this summer, Jesus has truly humbled me.

areas of ministry i was confident in have become some of my biggest challenges, often leading me to burnout. not because the work is hard, but because i was doing it all in my own strength.

he has also taught me that the things i often classify as unimportant HE truly cares for. all of human life, “ministry” or not can and should be lived for his glory.

i didn’t want to believe the Lord when he said I would learn to be alone with him out west… a month in and I can finally accept it, though it’s bittersweet to comprehend.

you can make many plans, but the Lord’s purpose will prevail.

if im honest, i think ive been tired for a long time. there are so many God sized dreams in my head but time at time again fear joins me and paralyzes me whole.

moving to the other side of the country, even if it was for a few months, was what I knew God wanted of me. but that didn’t erase the fear of both the known and unknown i would encounter here. my heart has been so full through so many experiences, but I would be lying if I said the experience was pure bliss.

regardless of the hard circumstances, i know this is where Jesus wants me. slowly but surely may we learn that difficulty doesn’t always indicate God’s absence. Sometimes, its his ever intentional hand doing something greater than we can imagine.

As of late, the Lord has reminded me that even my deepest answered prayer will never satisfy the craving of my heart. My heart wasn’t designed for mere tangible prayers. It was designed to be a garden for an eternal and all sufficient God.

As I sit in one of the biggest answered prayers of this season, as much as there is gratitude there is for some reason a deep level of grief. And if im being honest, grief seems to be that one thing that hasn’t left my life for as long as I can remember.

I’ve found myself weeping almost everyday asking Jesus to remove this thorn from my side, which plagues my mind and isn’t allowing to jump head on into this season. Its one of the most frustrating, debilitating and humbling experiences of my young adult life.

I don’t know what the Summer holds. but i know, even if at the moment it seems abstract, the Character of my God. To this may well hold tonight.

May we be desperate for Jesus.
