I'm on a journey. It began a couple months ago and comes down to this: God is stirring my heart for orphans. He's stirring my heart to HIS work in the world to bring Kingdom Justice. Verses all over the Bible speak to this. In my title is John 14:18 and it says, "I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you." (Come Unto Me) We were all orphans in a way. We were lost in sin and all alone. And Jesus came to us. He gave His life for us. And He met us where we were at and adopted us as sons and daughters. Ephesians 1:5 says, "God decided in advance to adopt us into his own family by bringing us to himself through Jesus Christ. This is what he wanted to do, and it gave him great pleasure." Oh how He loves us.
Over the next few weeks, I'll share with you what I've been learning in this and all that's led me to where I am now: planning for a missions trip to Rwanda and Uganda later this summer. God has so much in store for each of us and what an adventure it is. :)
