“I’m ready, God, so ready, ready from head to toe, ready to sing, ready to raise a tune: “Wake up, soul! Wake up, harp! Wake up lute! Wake up, you sleepyhead sun!” I’m thanking you, God, out loud in the streets, singing your praises in town and country. The deeper your love, the higher it goes; every cloud is a flag to your faithfulness. Soar high in the skies, O God! Cover the whole earth with your glory!” (Psalm 57:7-11 MSG)
I just want to praise God!! I want to praise him for his holiness and majesty! I want to praise him for who he is; my Father, the lover of my soul, and my faithful Friend. He never ceases to reveal himself; he never could cease to reveal himself because he is everywhere. He makes himself known in grand and obvious ways like through his beautiful mountains and creation, reminding me to just be still and know that He is God. He leads me beside quiet waters and refreshes my soul. He shows infinite understanding when I seem to be constantly misunderstanding; while I want to do everything at once God gently guides me back into his rest and reminds me that he’s got this. He is in every single detail of every single one of my days, from being on top of the mountains to having conversations with perfect strangers about Jesus while in the valleys, even on the plane ride home. I love His ways! I love the divine appointments he places in my path. He is there, and willing to guide us if only we would listen and be attentive to his voice.
I’m so thankful that I get to grow in my relationship with the Lord amongst other amazing people who are listening and learning to be attentive to his voice as well! God is moving in major ways throughout his entire Church! He is raising up a generation who has heard his call on their lives and they’re bold and brave enough to step out and answer him! Let me introduce you to a couple of amazing young women and sweet sisters in Christ who inspire me to step out in bold faith daily.
Gentry Fisher, a beautiful friend of mine who challenges me daily to walk in obedience and to grow in my faith. She’s an amazing young woman of God and loves the Lord with all of her heart and that love spills over into so many other people’s lives. She’s a blessing to many and God is about to bless so many others through her while she follows him on the Justice Tour to Thailand and Cambodia for two weeks ministering to and seeking out the trafficked, the orphans, and the unreached. (Isaiah 1:17)
I’d like to encourage you to consider supporting Gentry whether in prayer or financially. To find out more about how to support her and to learn more about the Justice Tour go to www.gentryfisher.com/justicetour
The next friend of mine I’d like to introduce you all to is Rhiannon Morlan. When I say this girl can change atmospheres with her voice I’m not exaggerating! I can’t tell you how many times her voice has brought me to tears while she was leading worship as she is extremely anointed and gifted. She is a blessing to my church family at H2O Church in Ada. God has major plans for this beautiful girl and her husband Jacob as they take a huge leap of faith and move to Australia so she can attend Hillsong International Leadership College to become a worship leader and grow in her God given talents. I’m so excited to see how God uses her in the near future!
As her and her husband prepare for the move all the way to Australia they are needing to raise money. If you would like to bless them and help them in any way you feel led to visit www.rhiannonmorlan.blogspot.com
God is raising up a generation for such a time as this! He is preparing us and equipping us and that is something to praise him for! Just in my church alone He is raising up and sending out so many of us! I think it’s a beautiful thing and definitely worthy of a HALLELUJAH or two 🙂 …I pray that we would all wake up our souls and sing and praise God wherever he has placed us in this moment in time, whether it’s across the seas in a different country or at work and at home with your families, even at school! He is so worthy and it’s time to sing of his faithfulness and tell of all the amazing things he’s doing in each of our lives. I am in constant awe of God and how he is moving in so many people’s hearts to agree to pray for me every single day while I’m gone for the next 11 months and also to support me financially. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU to you all. I am humbled by every single donation and prayer sent my way. I’m currently at $5,730 of my $16,277 goal and have some other fundraisers and t-shirts coming soon. I thank God and praise God for every single one of you, yes you, and you, and YOU! Mercy, peace, and love be yours in abundance!
“Not to us, Lord, not to us but to your name be the glory, because of your love and faithfulness.”
(Psalm 115:1)
