"Him"

Im convinced girls- that a boy should have to work darn hard to get our eyes off Jesus! And if he does succeed then he isn't the one. Any boy that captures my eye/heart will not attract me to himself but the Saviour that dwells within. Living/ Encouraging/ &leading us as a team Heavenward!

Life at Present

This new season of life...

New job.
New church.
New friends.
New responsibilities.

I have never felt more tired, weak or lonely in my life EVER!

With that said- I have had to rely more on my Jesus than ever before.

And with THAT said....

My heart will sing. No other name. JESUS!


JESUS- my first and only love.

From Sarah

It's little things like this that remind me why I do what I do :)

To my girls- Perri, Bridget, Sarah T, Sarah M and Olivia... No girls can replace you nor is there anyway I can forget you. I love you and am soo blessed with the memories I have with you guys and the chance to be part of your worlds! I love you and am beyond excited to see what God does through you each individually and as a group! You excite my soul :) Love Love xoxox

Love.....In all it's fullness

It's not about what or who I love...

It's not about me.

It's about everyone else.

It's about the old guy at the shops struggling with his groceries as he tries and walks home.

It's about the little girls poking me in the back for an hour and half as they keep asking me questions at work.

It's about my parent's impatience towards silly technological devices.

It's about the people who always get ignored/ outcasted because their opinionated/ awkward/... weird.

It's about the guy who gives me suggestive provocative looks as if I don't have any value.

It's about the people who have said/done a thousand things that hurt/offend/ disappoint.

It's about Surrender. Reckless Abandonment. Willingness.

That's the true love I'm seeking.

Foolishness

Quotes from Camp last week...

On the topic of: Worldy Foolishness/Wisdom Vs. Christ's Foolishness...

"He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain that which he cannot lose."

"You get stuck with your character for worth....I'd say it's worth developing."

"What you long for IS what you will live for!" - Michael Lawrence

In the midst of change.....

Mumford and Sons gettin me through...

And I'll find strength in pain

And I will change my ways

I'll know my name as it's called again

Cause I have other things to fill my time

You take what is yours and I'll take mine

Now let me at the truth

Which will refresh my broken mind

So tie me to a post and block my ears

I can see widows and orphans through my tears

I know my call despite my faults

And despite my growing fears

But I will hold on hope

So come out of your cave walking on your hands

And see the world hanging upside down

You can understand dependence

When you know the maker's hand

Cause I need freedom now

And I need to know how

To live my life as it's meant to be.

- The Cave

Jesus- I pray that it's in your obedience I'm walking. There's nowhere else I'd rather be. It hurts and it's hard. However you're bigger and better and worth ever step and every tear. I believe that but greater than that I trust you with that and with each and every one of my steps.

I trust you.

I trust you.

I trust you.

Today and the next xox

Change

Hurts

Smiles

Mountain Maker, Ocean Tamer

You put smiles on my face afresh every morning!

Surrendered. Again!

Set me apart.

Soften my heart.

Remind me needed.

Speak louder when important.

Still my mind.

Use me for the sake of others salvation.

I'm willing.

Impart divine purpose.

Teach me to listen obediently.

Burden me.

Teach me to love as you first loved.

C'mon Jesus.

I'm surrendered.

Declared.

Heard.

Answered.

40 days!

In light of my last post...I have returned home from my first Wildlife Summer Camp! Yewwww!

Needless to say...Excellence! Needless to also say- NACKERED!

Having done back to back camps I am now feeling exhaustion seep in mentally, physically, emotionally... BUT definitely not spiritually! I've spent the arvo nanna napping my way round the lounge room floor.

Well... without being able to say too much. The last few weeks have set the direction for the rest of the year! Change is definitely upon my life. Nervous? Mmm no. Totally excited to be putting my trust in action and to step out of my comfort zone? Ahhh- Heck Yeh!

As part of some of the teaching from last week I am setting apart the next 40 days and ahh... the rest of my life to be..SET APART?! The next 40 days I am specifically upholding these points in prayer...

1. Commit my decision to move churches, continue praying and speak to those needed.

2. Sacrificially praying about each one of my family members that they would personally know and experience GOD

3. And thirdly in light of all these weddings, praying intentionally for my future husband who's out there somewhere, that God would be daily transforming him into the destined man of God he's created to be. That as I pray God would keep his way pure, holy and SET APART! I truly believe my prayers can make a difference in his world..NOW!
