"Humans are a ghostly comparison to the real humanity we could be. We are like a bride who has turned from her love and prostituted herself to the world. It is only in our reuniting with our first love that our eyes are opened again to the gift of life and the beauty of everything around us that is filled with the very glory of God. It is in this beholding that the beauty of the bride is restored to her, and the ghosts upon the earth are able to become more alive."

living in the exceeding grace of God…

This morning while driving to work I had such a sweet, sweet time with my love, Jesus. I was so moved by the Spirit and His filling of my soul… Even still I feel like I’m looking at the world around me through a glowing misty haze. It’s heavenly…

 

Below is the verse God gave to me. I pray if finds you well.

 

But God, being rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us,  even when we were dead in our transgressions, made us alive together with Christ ( by grace you have been saved), and raised us up with Him, and seated us with Him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, so that in the ages to come He might show the surpassing riches of His grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. -Ephesians 2:4-7

I see the ugly. I see the hypocrisy and the politics and the judgement. But I choose to see grace. I choose to see mercy. I choose to stay in the Church, to ask hard questions and think about complicated things. I choose because I love my God

Church isn’t easy. Church isn’t all the answers. But it works for me, because it helps me to forget me, and focus on something bigger, better and more beautiful.

…so good


The Jesus Culture One Day worship gathering last night at Verizon Theater was everything I wanted and needed it to be. I loved every minute of being surrounded by hungry believers and seekers of Jesus, pursuing after His heart through worship and prayer.

For me, the most refreshing part of the evening, besides the amazing music, was seeing people reaching out and praying for one another. Goodness how I miss that… All around the theater, even in the parking lot, people huddled with arms extended praying for their friends, their family, calling out a spirit of fire for their cities and the nations. It was SO encouraging and SO beautiful to see real community happening. Everyone coming together chasing after our Great and Might God… so, so good.

If you get a chance to be apart of this or any night of worship with Jesus Culture (really anyone from Bethel Church in Redding, CA) don’t miss out. The ministry coming out of that place is Spirit stirring and it’s catching like wildfire. They truly are being the church and are setting great examples for what we all should be doing as followers of Jesus.

I will live by the light of the glory You shine on me!
I will live by the grace that You offer so freely!

Jesus You’ve called me friend
Jesus You’ve made me what I am
Jesus You are my life within
