When the Lord calls me to serve Him and His people. I have learned that the greatest thing that can ever happen, is when I just let Him use me the way He wants to. I see the most joy in others when I allow myself to be loved by Him. When I allow Him to show me who He created and calls me to be. When I let God who created the universe not just be God, but Father. When I let Jesus the one who died for me not only be Saviour, but Friend. When I let the Holy Spirit not just be this Giver of gifts, but let Him live in me.
It has only been 3 months since the year started and I feel overwhelmed. Overwhelmed by all the things that I am called to do, however beyond that I realized over this weekend that I am more overwhelmed by His love. I have been reminded that I can only continue to serve because of the One who has served me first. I can only love because of the One who has loved me first. With that being said I just want to say praise God for God! I should not be surprised that He continues to out do me in love. When I think i’ve given enough, He gives me more, just so I can give more back. LOL
I am grateful for this realization. I owe it to those individuals who were at Camp Lifted this weekend. Thank you so much for being God’s blessings in my life.
Camp Verse Isaiah 40:31 “but those who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength, they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint.” (NRSVCE)
Lord I know you will call me. I pray I may answer.
