Although I stuffed more junk in my packs than I planned, I was blessed with the opportunity to cary a third bag containing one of the most precious gifts I’ve ever been given:

The heart behind the woman who gifted me her one and only guitar is unlike any I’ve met. The love she’s poured into me in the last few months has been a blessing I never even thought to pray for. And beyond the sacrifice of handing away such a cherished item, she’s stepped out in faith, believing that God will provide her with another guitar so that she may continue leading others into a lifestyle of worship. Prayers for her to receive a guitar are appreciated! I pray that the gifting of her guitar would bless her as it has and continues to bless me.

I look forward to this journey of loving, learning, and sharing more of the Lord than I can anticipate. 

Thank you for all of your love and support.

 

“Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal, but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.”
Matthew 6:19-21 ESV
