Time & Life

So much time has passed since I last posted.

It feels like youth group was a life time away. I really thank God for the experience as it was a time to passionately pursue God with reckless abandon, knowing that despite my shortcomings, God is able to fulfill my weaknesses and that we just a little bit of faith and an expecting heart, God moved in powerful ways, demonstrating his love and kindness towards me.

Where am I now with my walk with God?

Well truth be told, I think this is the hardest year I've ever had following God. It has been full of great high's and terrible lows. I have seen God do extraordinary things and I have seen my foolishness lead to heart break.

I am currently on a break from serving God. Not because I wanted to, but I think God is really just realigning my heart. Stripping back all the gloss, to see my true heart, true identity, whether or not I want to serve God for my own glory, or do I want to serve Him for He is worthy. Whether or not I am 'successful' in this life, my calling is to be faithful to my God.

I love God, I want to serve Him, and I want to give my life for Him. I pray that my heart is strong enough to let go of those things that so easily entangles me. That for the sake of the kingdom, I can whole heartedly pursue the things he has for me.

There is someone that I really like at the moment, that's struggling, struggling to find themselves in God. To know who she is in Him. I'm praying that she comes to know the love of God in such a deeper way,


17 that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love, 18 may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and depth and height— 19 to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be filled with all the fullness of God. (Ephesians 3:17-19)

God please change her heart, keep calling her to you. Help her to fall in Love with You.

God help me to walk worthy of the calling. To love well, serve well. To be a man of integrity. A man of honour. In Jesus name.
Amen
