Trust God because He never takes away anyone better than that He will give you later.
“But I focus on this one thing: Forgetting the past and looking forward to what lies ahead, I press on to reach the end of the race and receive the heavenly prize for which God, through Christ Jesus, is calling us.” -Phil. 3:13-14
Breakfast of Champions
Let’s say you’re going for a run. You know you need some energy to burn off, so what should you eat? How about a pack of Twinkies, a cheese Danish, some buttery biscuits drenched in sausage gravy and a nice eggnog chaser? You’ll be lucky if you can lace up your tennies after consuming that. What if you skipped eating altogether? You won’t feel as bloated, but you won’t get very far.
As Christians, we have to eat right. God’s Word is the breakfast of champions. It makes a difference in your day if you take time to devour the feast of wisdom He has made available in the Bible. You can be renewed and transformed by the power of the Word (Romans 12:1-2).
Every season in our lives is preparing us for another. I have never believed this more strongly. And I have never been happier that I know nothing. What an encouraging thing to know EXACTLY where I am is where I am supposed to be. He is preparing us for greater things not only outwardly but within our hearts.
Is. 55:8-12
Ecclesiastes 3:1-14
Today is new day and a new month! A new chance to surrender to God and let Him use you. Happy November! Live it to the fullest! :)
Today is perfect. Beautiful. And every breeze is reminding me of how great You are. How I am so little, and so safe in You. You never fail me Father. There is absolutely nothing that compares to knowing God and letting Him be our hope. Let everything lead us back to you. Let everything lead us back to Your unfailing unconditional love. We are walking on holy ground, it is Yours Lord. The earth and everything in it. In light of an eternity with You, nothing here can tie me, nothing can capture my heart like You have. You are an overflowing spring of joy.
MUSIC MONDAY
Yesterday our church had our annual baptism at Dana Point beach. Afterwards, we got to do one of my favorite things earth…. sing worship songs around a bonfire all night long. It was such an amazing experience and the presence of the Lord was so thick and tangible that night as a chorus of voices lifted up in song praise and worship to Him. If you wanna know what it was like — watch this video. :)

We might not always know what God’s plan is right now for our lives, but be comforted by this friends - Know that there is ALWAYS a plan. A plan ordained by God from the beginning of time to bring us to a GlORIOUS end…. like a beautiful sunset. -Jeremiah 29:11
-Sarah
High up on a rock
looking out at the horizon
watching as the storm rolls in
wondering if my heart will survive it
as the waves crash all around me
and can’t remember what it feels like to be free
You say, I’ve got you my baby
I’ve got you
it’s quite the mess you’re in
but it’s nothing Love can’t fix
so sit here upon my shoulders
and watch as it all unwinds…
