this summer has been an adventure. from the epic road trip that wasn't as epic as planned but still legit, to developing ministry partners and stepping out in faith that God will provide financially for me next year as I step into full time ministry to living with some of my beautiful roommates for a summer while helping out at the youth group at EV Free and spending time with the family and trying to figure out life and where the Lord is taking me. it's been exciting :) the Lord has already shown me so much about His character and love and faithfulness while support raising and He is revealing so much more to me too! i have been so encouraged and motivated to step up my prayer life lately, and spend even more time with the Lord.
seriously though, time with the Lord puts everything else in my life in perspective.
recently i have been looking at the inerrancy of the Scriptures. and i just wanted to share a few quick things that were good to be reminded of, and made me think about just how awesome the creator of the universe is.
-This is an excerpt from some stuff that I am going through this summer in prepartion for interning with CRU:
A Carl Henry quote that Al Mohler gave, "Revelation is God's gracious self disclosure whereby He forfeits his own personal privacy so that his sinful creatures could know Him."
His word is such a gift!
-His word is truth in my life. It is not just pick and choose what I like about in the Scripture, or lets fit this to the culture we live in now. It is God breathed, inerrant, and truth. When the Bible says that the Lord created me, and he knew me and saw my unformed body and that His works are wonderful. I can cling to that. I can cling to the Gospel, and the truth that I can have a personal and intimate relationship with Him.
-His word has complete authority and rule over my life because it is truth. Not only will this further and develop my fellowship with the Lord, but it is the power and driving force of my ministry.
It's late and i sometimes ramble, and things don't come out the way I am processing them in my head, but I just wanted to write something. <3
