In the few days i have been here i have seen and heard story after story and many testimonies of God's faithfulness. He is ALL ABOUT drawing people into intimacy with Himself, and he does that in many ways. I have heard about deliverance from demons, (and that makes HIS spirit even more REAL, and was actually in the office when one occured down the hall), deliverance from physical illness when truth was applyed to a lie, and the lifting of a hard calloused heart made that way by years and years and years of someone living the Christian life in his own strength. Gosh, He is real and in everything and working in everything and no doubt about he works ALL ALL ALL things for the good of those who love him and are called according to His purpose amen!

I went on a walk with a lady named Renee who has been teaching us and she lives right around the corner from me. She told me this story, which again shows the amazingness of God:
"My grandaughter who was 3 1/2 at the time was so pumped about dance lessons. We had her in the car and her mother went inside to talk to the teacher and I was sitting in the car with her. I hear this little voice say 'Mimi, i ask Jesus in my hawt (heart) today' Oh honey you did? That is wonderful! How did you do it? 'I just pway(pray) and ask Him in my hawt' Wow sweetie! So her mom gets back in the car and i have her tell her mother and then it's time to drop her off at the lesson. She says 'i want a sip of my dwink and den(then) i wanna pway. ok. deeahw(dear) jesus, take my 'fwaid(afraid) away jesus when i go to dance, if i fall or teachuhw(teacher) is not dehrw(there) i love you amen'

is that incredible or what?! how often to we live in fear and take it upon ourselves to muster up courage. HE is courage and HE is the answer. period. and if he has to use a 3 year old to humble us and show us that then so be it. in her mind jesus has all the power in the world in every situation even the seemingly small stuff. what an incredible example of dependence is that!?

Lord Jesus! Let me be like a child! Unquestioning and trusting without an ounce of doubt because you are more than capable. Thank You Jesus for your word today and how you pursue us in so many ways. I love you and thank you for loving me without condition. Thanks for rest. Thanks for you!
