"Holiness is the evidence that changes the world"
Dear God,
I cannot describe to you how my heart feels right now. I feel you in every breath that I take, even the hard ones after walking up stairs, I feel you in the wind even on this hot-sun-shining day. I feel you in the majesty of Pike's Peak and the ranges of mountains that remind me of borders around stationary. They follow me wherever I go and bring a sense of comfort, that even while creating them, you allowed them to outline this beautiful place. I feel your breath in the blessing of arriving at the airport, with my belongings and being able to meet missionaries from all over the place, with one desire, that is to hear your voice, to know your heart and to heal.
Thank you for the girls you have opened my heart to love. I thought at first I was going to be the odd one out, being the only one from Charlotte, but you have proved me wrong. Your love does not see state lines or accents, Your love is One in the body. Thank you for their sweet hearts, their struggles and their tears. I know it's so hard to be away from home for them and not have neccesities. Please keep them strong through their wait for their belongings, and continue to teach us that our security is not in material things but in You.
Father, I feel you in each moment here and I struggle and ask myself why can't I feel your presence when I am back home. I see how far away I am from your voice when my life is going at 80 miles per hour. Oh Lord, my prayer is that I will find you even when I'm miles away from here, in everything. Lord, help me know your heart while I am here and I know that you do not need to use me. I only pray that I will see more of you, to be brought to humility, to know that even one glimpse of your purpose will silence the pride I have to live my life the way I want to live it. God, forgive me.
Be with me each day, that Your holiness may be seen through me and that it will infect all who have never met you and inspire those who have. You are awesome God, You are majesty.
In Jesus Name,
Amen.
