Life is all about love. Success without love is failure. A full heart is priceless and so valuable. My favorite part of following Christ is having the love of Christ living right inside of me! Love is such a powerful word. It’s burning! God uses love in so many ways and in different forms. I know God really packs the wounds left open in life with love. Love will make you fearless. Gods been illuminating my heart to follow what he has put inside of it. I truly believe people get the impact of “by believing in Jesus you will be saved and go to heaven.” Why shouldn’t I just live the life the way I imagine? There is so much more! It’s love to the fullest when you got a father that cares for you. It’s an amazing feeling when you give something to someone, like a gift. You almost get as exited to give it to the person who receives it and see the wonder and excitement on their face. God sent down his son because he so loves us. We should be starry eyed with wonder. God loves us! Wrap yourself with that. Jesus takes a way what this world holds. Jesus Christ, the name has so much magnitude to what love really is.
Having an Irish smile is one of the greatest charms. Kane is such a beautiful last name to have. My grandpa Kane smiles down on me daily I can feel it. I was raised up on an Irish saying “When Irish eyes are smiling their up to no good”. I’ve spent a lot of my life looking for trouble and fun. Jesus loves my family and their hearts. I felt like there was freedom in doing what wasn’t right. I always put investments in the wrong stocks of life. Jesus in my life has proved my old theory absolutely wrong. He guides me to makes decisions his way. It’s not okay to portray yourself as “cool” or “bad”. Jesus was the “baddest”. I truly mean the King, Lord, and Savior! I heard a story about a man from a biker gang being ministered to at a bar. After hearing the gospel he stands and says “Jesus is one bad MF”. Imagine Jesus staring down hanging on a cross beat senseless asking for forgiveness and salvation to the world. There is so much freedom in life that is unseen. It all laid upon to what happened on the Cross that day. He now lives in the hearts to make his love live on this earth. Freedom comes from the heart and loving like never before. So much freedom in having a pure soul. Freedom to lost souls, so much love for the Cross. It’s so beautiful and it is manly to love and be loved.
Update:
After Uzbekistan we took off for Kyrgyzstan for debrief. Debrief was very good! We were in Bishkek. We learned so much and had Stephanie, our squad mentor with us. She is such a blessing to everyone on the squad. Debrief was quite difficult for me. I felt God calling me into deeper freedom and I felt I didn’t know how to do so. We have new teams. I am now with Parker, Brandon, Jenny, Heidi, and Suz. We took off for Kazakhstan and stayed at a very nice family home. It was a family of faith and it was so beautiful getting to live in their daily lives. We were right outside Almaty, the Capital of Kazakhstan. We went hiking with kids ministry, and they let us in on their lives. We then took off to do an archeological dig! It was life changing. We first met Steve, Liz, Beth, and her Husband. There was a World Race team that did the dig the year before us. They were familiar with what the World Race does. The dig was something I never thought could move me so much. It was in a little village out near the Kazakhstan and China border. The people at the dig were like a big family. There was so much caring, loving, and presence of Christ in every aspect. I was in Unit 5A with Jon. When I first met Jon I knew we were going to be tight. I came so close and call him a dear friend of mine. The group of people lit up my whole day. Abby and Staci are two young girls from Bishkek, they are so sweet and really smart! I will never forget these people. We roomed with Nur and Farhat two young Kazakhstan men. I love these two and miss them. We got to celebrate a birthday. Farhat is a caring man and the way this man loves brings chills up my spine. He cares so much about everyone and brings joy with him in any situation. He told us some of the things going on in his life and his testimony of not having a father growing up. He has two kids and you can see the fathers love in his eyes. I will never forget the love. We worked early and eat so good! They were so good to us and it was hot but that made it more fun! The dig lasted two weeks and we took off back to Almaty. We went to bathhouse and had fun the next day before long travels to our next journey in Baku, Azerbaijan. It turns out train runs through Tashkent, Uzbekistan! We got to spend a day in Tashkent and it was like coming home. We stayed at the same place we stayed when we were there a month. We got to see everyone and it was like being at home. We even got invited while we were at a Korean dinner place to go out to lunch with a family. We eat lunch the next day and the hospitality was overwhelming. The people of Uzbekistan are so loving. God keeps showing me new steps to become everything he made me to be! We just got to Baku and it’s amazing! The travel was long and straining. We took a 35 hour train, after we take a 12 hour train, Taxis and a ferry across the Caspian Sea. Till next time!
God loves you, I love you!
