If I could describe my year in one photo, this would be it.
When the Lord asked me to go to the nations He promised to be FAITHFUL.
He has held true to His word.
He has been faithful to be Provider, Sustainer, Strength, Hope, Light.
He has faithfully protected us and abundantly blessed us.
And He has been faithful to be REDEEMER.
Psalm 130:7
Israel, put your hope in the Lord,
and with Him is full redemption.
He has reached down and lifted me up out of the pit and restored my life in ways that don't even make sense.
And He has been faithful to REDEEM His children all around the world.
His love is unfailing. He is worthy of our HOPE and TRUST.
He has lifted up His children out of the muck and the mess.
He has called us beautiful.
He has restored our joy.
Others look on and wonder what is this hope we've been given;
who are these who are full of light?
We are the redeemed – we are His sons and daughters.
From all nations and all tribes,
we have one heartbeat as one family in Christ.
We are the redeemed.
