MARKED by LOVE
People are so beautiful. God spent so much time hand crafting each and every one of us. I love how each person has their own stories, desires, families, friends, pains, gifts, talents, and dreams. It is beautiful! One thing that everyone has in common though is they are all looking for LOVE. Everyone wants love. At the crux of it all.
Love is the man Jesus! He is LOVE, everything else is a counterfit. Without Him we dont have love.
I want to spend the rest of my life learning to love people. I want to come without an agenda and just LOVE on the poor, broken, lost, and needy. I want to be Jesus’ hands and feet and encounter human hearts with Love. I want my arms to hug the unwanted and disregarded; as Jesus’ arms.
I just want Love. I NEED LOVE. Ive been MARKED by LOVE. I want Gods Love to well up inside of my and bubble over to everyone I come in contact with. I am so broken; a cracked pot. I am so hungry. But God said, “YOU are who I choose to bring Love to the seemingly unloved.” Me. Broken, simple, me.
There is so much freedom in the simplicity of the Gospel. All we have to do is love. One day I’m going to stand before the creator of the universe, my daddy, my friend; and He’s going to ask me one question: “Beautiful Daughter, did you learn to Love?”
All the law and the prophets hang on the two commandments of Loving God and Loving others. Jesus says that if we offer a cup to the poor we are doing it for him. I want to pour my alabaster box, my expensive perfume over Jesus feet, so Im going to pour it out over the lost, poor, broken, and needy.
I will waste my life loving this man of Love. I will go to the backside of a mountain, or the slums, or to the richest place in the world, I will go wherever He takes me because I know that everywhere there is a human heart, there is a need for Love. And He is the only person who can bring it. He’s just waiting for one of His kids to say “I’ll go for you daddy! I dont care how weak, small, unlearned, or broken I am. I have your Love and thats enough for You, so its enough for me.”
I dont have to convince anyone to choose Jesus. I just have to Love. This rare uncounterfittable, phenomenon of Love will speak for itself. Love is the gospel. They will know us as christians by our love. When the lost see that we will stop at nothing to love, serve, and die for them, they will be utterly provoked to seek out this man Jesus. They wont be able to argue it or deny it. They will see it is real and pure. It will confound the wise and they will have to choose to receive the man who loved them to the degree of laying down his life on a cross; or not. They will have to choose love; or not. So I pray that they will.

So I was messing around on Garage Band (for the first time) the other day and this is what happened… :)
After the Internship
Jesus has been providing for me since I finished the internship. I am currently in a house very near to the prayer room with four amazing women of God who push me toward Jesus and sharpen me like iron. I have been blessed with an amazing job at a restaurant called Houlihan’s where God has given me supernatural favor with co workers, employers, and guests. I also have two amazing parents who have been loving me with all their unction to this day and lending an ear whenever I need to talk. Along with my parents, I have an amazing grandma and two awesome aunts who have sponsored me while I’m out here letting the Lord lead and learning to lean on Him for everything. Thank you Jesus! I am in faith starting school in January at IHOP University in the program called The Call Institute with Lou Engle and Sam Cearney as the directors. Currently praying for the tuition to come in. God has been faithful so far so I don’t doubt He will bring it in timely.
I’ve had a hard time posting blogs on here and I’m not sure why. I think i just enjoy face to face conversation too much!
Me being sillly!
