"No one lights a lamp, then hides it in a drawer. It's put on a lamp stand so those entering the room have light to see where they're going. Your eye is a lamp, lighting up your whole body. If you live wide-eyed in wonder and belief, your body fills up with light. If you live squinty-eyed in greed and distrust, your body is a dank cellar. Keep your eyes open, your lamp burning, so you don't get musty and murky. Keep your life as well-lighted as your best-lighted room."
-Luke 11:33-36
Ready. Set. Go.
Yep. All of this and more describes where I am right now. I leave for Africa with 15 other team members to go and love on orphans. Though we'll be participating in practical services, the Lord has been continually speaking to my heart how everything we need is truly found in him. He is the Light that lights our path and He is the ultimate Life-giver and Healer. He is truly the answer. So, as I continue to prepare and finish the "last minute" details before heading out, I continue to remember that Jesus is the answer and my everything is truly found in him. May he continually remind us all of this basic, but beautiful truth. Blessings and thank you for your continued prayers!
