God has been teaching me so much lately. In the past few days I have been inundated with blessings, encouragement, and challenges from God. I don't know exactly why He is doing all these things in my life, but I know that He is going to look greater and I am going to be stronger as a result.
I have been reading a little from J.I. Packer's KNOWING GOD and I have been humbled and broken. I have realized that I do not know God! I know much about him. I can give you facts about who He is and what He does. I can quote Scripture. I can tell others about Him. I can even be godly and still not have much knowledge about Him! But I do not think that I truly know Him. For about 4 years now my favorite passage of Scripture has been Philippians 3.7,8, but they now have a deeper meaning. I want to know Jesus Christ in the same way that the Apostle Paul did!
This is my desire, to honor You
Lord, with all my heart I worship You
All I have within me, I give You praise
All that I adore is in You
Lord, I give you my heart
I give You my soul
I live for You alone
Every breath that I take
Every moment I'm awake
Lord, have Your way in me

About Me

- I am a Christian Hedonist... a lover of God. At the moment, I server with a ministry called Encounter Revival Ministries (www.encounterrevival.org). We are based in Harrisburg, PA. I serve as the team director, full-time cook, and youth speaker while we are on the road. I am originally from Rochester, NY, but I spent most of my life in Guatemala, C.A. My parents are missionaries (they now serve in Honduras, C.A.) I have travelled to almost 20 countries (one of my life's goals is to go to 75 countries). .
