Hello from India!!! The Lord has been so gracious and has protected myself and my team. We have been traveling for most of the month…we spend about 5 days at one orphanage, then pack up and head to another. We are currently at our third orphanage. God has allowed us to spread the Gospel to some Muslims and Hindus, paint the outside and inside of two orphanages, love on 20 orphan boys, and be an encouragement to two pastors and their wives and children. I am so grateful to the Lord for these opportunities and look forward to more. Thank you so much for your prayers and support!!! As of now, I have raised $14,359.40!!! Praise the Lord!!!

I would like to share something with you that has been on my heart the past few weeks. I pray the Lord would use it in your life as He has in mine. God bless!! 🙂

Sometimes in this life, I get so caught up in myself…well I should say it's probably more than sometimes. I am more worried about what I want and what I need instead of living my life for God. It's so hard to put my flesh to death every day. Through His Word and prayer, God has been teaching me and reminding me that it's ALL about Him. The only reason I am alive is because He created me and gave me breath. The only reason I have a family is because He has blessed me with one. The only reason I am healthy is because He takes care of me. The only reason I am going to live forever is because He sent His only Son, Jesus Christ, to die on the cross for my sins.

Everything I am…
                                   Everything I do…
                                                                          Everything I say…
                                                                                                                   Everything I have… 

is because of Him!!!
 
So, what I've decided to do is live my life in light of this. If everything is ALL about Him, God will be glorified. BUT, what's crazy is that the only way this is possible is through His son. He loved me sooooooo much that He sent His Son to cover my sins and become my righteousness so that God would be glorified through me…that's unconditional love. Awesome, right?!?! He loves me knowing that I will never be able to love Him the way He loves me. I Corinthians 1:30-31 says, "And because of him you are in Christ Jesus, who became to us wisdom from God, righteousness and sanctification and redemption, so that, as it is written, "Let the one who boasts, boast in the Lord." I was reminded of exactly what the Lord is to me…and I want to boast in Him.

Thank you Lord…for EVERYTHING!!!!
