Starbucks, friends, prayer...

So I am sitting here in Starbucks thinking and praying about Children's Cup. This is something I am super excited about. God is really going to bring about the perfect group of women/men to be on my Engage team. I am excited about the opportunity to work together and bring about change for the children in Africa.

Today is day eight in the 40 Days of Prayer for Children's Cup. I believe in the power of words. God is going to move in a mighty way. I stand firm that the promises He makes will come true. There is no ifs, ands, or buts. :)

Perfect timing...

Never change God's facts into hopes or prayers but simply accept them as realities, and you will find them to be powerful as you believe them. --H.W. Webb Peploe

He giveth more grace when the burdens grow greater,
He sendeth more strength when the labors increase;
To addeth affliction He addeth His mercies,
To multiplied trails His multiplied peace.

When we have exhausted our store of endurance,
When our strenght has failed ere the day is half done,
When we reach the end of our hoarded resources
Our Father's full giving is only begun.

His love has no limit, His grace has no measure,
His power no boundary known unto men;
For out of his infinite riches is Jesus
He giveth and giveth and giveth again.
--Annie Johnson Flint



God...You are giving me this hope for a renewed strength to soar on wings like eagles...

Lies...

I refuse to believe the lie...

*that people choose to think fear is holding me back from joy and love

*that drama will inevitably come into my life

*that I am the sum of my past failures
