I see Jesus!!

I am going to keep this post simple....not as wordy as I can sometimes get. I want to just share some of the ways in which I saw (and felt) Jesus this past week. Here we go:

I saw Jesus when...
  • I spent time with a friend...the Lord has provided a friend who gets me and I get her.
  • I watched a video by Lou Giglio with the girl's at bible study.
  • An old favorite verse from Psalms came alive to me because of the video.
  • A good friend texted me the same verse the next day...too perfect.
  • I was able to picture 6 empire state buildings on top of each other and Texas covered in 22 inches of golf balls and realize how MUCH God LOVES me (you had to see the said video).
  • I was able to go to Texas..spending time with awesome friends and making new ones.
  • I was encouraged in my calling and was surrounded by people who had been to Kenya and understood my heart for Kenya.
  • I attended a benefit for my friend's missions organization and was reminded how He is Jehovah Jireh
  • I went to Sunday School had a really great discussion and time of sharing with two girls. We were able to relate w/ each other and uplift each other.
  • I accepted a blessing than the Lord showed me had already taken care of things.
  • I heard the testimony of an older man who started a children's home in Kenya.

I think I could list so many more. I love how the Lord knows just what we need and meets those needs. The Lord is really showing Himself to me powerfully. I feel His love immensely and am just trying to live every day with that as my center and focus. With His love as your center, everything else falls into place and you have a proper perspective.

In closing, I want to say that the number one way I have seen Jesus this past week is in other people. Thank you, my friends, for being His hands and His feet. Thank you for being His voice piece, speaking truth and encouragement into my life. Thank you for helping me to see that He cared about me through the care you showed to me. Thank you for loving me and being amazing brothers and sisters in Christ.
