God is the Dream Weaver and Ultimate Believer
This past week has truly been a whirl wind to say the least. I am still trying to process it all mentally, physically, and spiritually. I really can't wait to put into words all that the Lord has spoken over my heart since I've returned to Boone, NC since the summer and since I've returned to Boone, NC just this Tuesday night from NYC after meeting Barack Obama and attending the Clinton Global Initiative.
Hang tight for more to come - all I can truly say for now is that God is beyond Good - He is elevating his children on behalf of the kingdom and I am humbled and blessed and honored to be a mouth piece for our generation on behalf of the fight against human trafficking! Justice is coming and Jesus' is the answer and freedom we all need.
Psalm 113

Psalm 113
"Praise the Lord.
Praise the Lord, you his servants;
praise the name of the Lord.
praise the name of the Lord.
Let the name of the Lord be praised,
both now and forevermore.
both now and forevermore.
From the rising of the sun to the place where it sets,
the name of the Lord is to be praised.
the name of the Lord is to be praised.
The Lord is exalted over all the nations,
his glory above the heavens.
Who is like the Lord our God,
the One who sits enthroned on high,
who stoops down to look
on the heavens and the earth?
his glory above the heavens.
Who is like the Lord our God,
the One who sits enthroned on high,
who stoops down to look
on the heavens and the earth?
He raises the poor from the dust
and lifts the needy from the ash heap;
he seats them with princes,
with the princes of his people.
He settles the childless woman in her home
as a happy mother of children.
and lifts the needy from the ash heap;
he seats them with princes,
with the princes of his people.
He settles the childless woman in her home
as a happy mother of children.
Praise the Lord."
May it all start and end with Praising the Lord in our lives.

"The Kingdom is within you" Luke 17:20-21
Dearest Beloved's
here I am to blog a little blurb - there is no way I can pack into this one blog post all that the Lord has been revealing to me or teaching me but as I have this little life breather here in Boone, NC I thought to myself I shall update you slightly on the truth that God has so graciously made real to me most recently and how He has captivated my heart and mind and soul with His love and goodness.
I have been reading through the Gospel of Luke and as I got to chapters 16 & 17 this week I have simply been unable to get out of them. It as if God has sunk me deep into his generosity and grace and has daily revealed to me more and more about these scriptures - specifically the one that states in 17:20-21 that His Kingdom dwells in us. Yes as born again believers we know that in Jesus Christ and through His blood on the cross we are made COMPLETELY NEW and are actually new beings - but how often do we wake up and truly reflect on the truth that it isnt just our human-ness that dwells in us anymore it is the living, breathing, holy Spirit of God that lives in you and me. He has given us His Son Jesus Christ and His Son Jesus Christ gave us the Holy Spirit as the counselor and power house of faith to live in us and actively live on the earth as His ambassador. So WYLD! I am so greatful that every day this week God has shown me a little but BIG glimpse of His kingdom in me and in those around me. The words of encouragement from a friend, the sweet song of hymns and praise that I witness my brothers and sisters utter, the food that is graciously given to those who are in need through the churches and ministries we have here in Boone, NC the kind gifts of hugs, clothes, cards and so many more things I can't even list them all. It has been incredible to catch a glimpse of the King in each and every person I've meet or spent time with this week.
God made us each in His image - it is true that no matter what, whether the people around us know WHO's they are and WHOM they are in Christ they are still the beloved in God's eyes and how different would our days and our interactions with people be if we just simply remembered that the Kingdom of God is in us and we are to see EVERYONE as our brother and sister. They are God's and they are the closest thing we have to that which tangibly bears HIS glorious image. Not the sunset, sunrise, the mountains, the flowers or the trees - they cry out of his majesty and authorship but it is in each human being that was made in Christ's image that we are to see the depth of our Father's heart revealed.
Look at your neighbor differently today - this week. Let us pray that the Lord's will would be done on Earth as it is in Heaven - starting with looking at those around us with loving, intentional and gracious eyes - through the empowerment of the Holy Spirit that dwells within us.
34 “Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world. 35 For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, 36 I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’
37 “Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? 38 When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? 39 When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’
40 “The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’
-Matthew 25:34-40
