All I Ever Want to Be

1.All I ever want to be

is what you want of me,Lord,

I give life to You.

And all my hopes and dreams and plans

I place within your hands,Lord,

and give life to You.

2.Every day You give me grace;

I find my strength in You,Lord,

I give my life to You.

And though it seems that I will fail,

Thro' You I will prevail,Lord,

I give my life to You.

Chorus:

Here am I,Lord,

use me;

take my life and mold me.

All I ever want to be is what You want of me,

Lord,I give my life to You,

and all my hopes and dreams and plans

I place within Your hands,Lord,

And give my life to You.

Pictures from the Past...

My Sisters remind me,by their very steadfastness,that truth,beauty,and goodness exist in the world,and that,no matter what there are and always will be people loving people through thick and thin.

Elisabeth Elliot Quotes

  

God never denies us our hearts desire except to give us something better.

It is impossible to love deeply without sacrifice.

I have one desire now to live a life of reckless abandon for the Lord,putting all my energy and strength into it.

Things happen which would not happen with out prayer.Let us not forget that.

The fact that I am a woman does not make me a different kind of Christian,but the fact that I am a Christian does make me a different kind of woman.

The will of God is not something you add to your life,it is a course you choose.

God's work in God's way never lacks God's supply.

 

All I Want...

All I want in this life is for people to look at me and think "Wow!She really loves Jesus!"

    One brisk summer evening,at a teen camp,God brought revival to the hearts of young people who had brought a candle to the preaching of the Word of God.The speaker had preached on the topic entitled "The Sin of Apathy."God worked in the hearts of these young people resulting in decisions and commitments made for Him.After the preaching,they all gathered round a campfire,where they shared tearful testimonies of how God worked in their hearts.They wept as they sang through the songs about their God and they stood beside one another-encouraging each other and letting them all know that they are there for each other.This is one brisk summer night in the year 2013,that some teens will never forget!

Help Me Win the Lost

Missions trip to Mexico 2013

1.When I look into the faces
of people ev'rywhere,
Help me see lost souls in danger
and headed to despair.
Help me see the flame approaching
around their fleeting days.
Those who dies without the Saviour
are lost to hell-fire's blaze.

Chorus:
Help me win the lost
and see them in their need.
Help me win the lost,
salvation's cause to please.
Help me win the lost.
O Spirit,please empower!
Help me win the lost.
Oh,use me now this hour.

2.As I gaze into the future
and see the lost mans doom,
Help me always to remember
there is an empty tomb.
Jesus died for ev'ry sinner;
He won the victory.
Jesus lives!He is the Saviour!
Salvation's offered free!

*John Van Geldren

Even so it is not the will of your Father which is in heaven,that one of these little ones should perish.

Mexico 2013

Here is the long awaited (even though it's only 3 days since we have been home...) post that everyone has been asking me about!!!!

The Mexico missions trip this year was indescribable!I learned allot from this trip!!Just when you think things can't get any better than they already are,God makes it even better then you can imagine!

One of the main things God was working in my heart this year was having a burden for souls back home.See while I was willing to go to Juarez,Mexico and hand out the Gospel to as many people I could reach I was not willing to hand it out to my own people back here at home.

One of the quotes that was said this year that really stuck out to me was this:

"The lost souls that we are reaching in Mexico this week are the same lost souls back at home!"

When that statement was made it was like God hit me right up side the head...like "Hey!Are you listening to this???I am trying to teach you something!!!" 

And boy did He teach me allot last week.

 I will share more about what I learned at church when I give my testimony.For now I will share some pictures!

People from the church that we worked with praying over the meetings..one of my favorite pictures!

I know that is only 5 of the VERY many pictures,but for now it will have to do.I have work that needs done right now,so I can't take the time and go through ALL the pictures,just to post some on my blog!

Anyways here are some verses that I was meditating on while we were on the missions trip.

But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:   In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.  For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus' sake.   For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.   But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.
 2 Corinthians 4:3-7

Great faith is the product of great fights.Great testimonies are the outcome of great tests.Great triumph can only come out of great trials.
~Smith Wigglesworth
