since I have you in my heart…
“And this is my prayer: that your love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight, so that you may be able to discern what is best and may be pure and blameless for the day of Christ, filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ—to the glory and praise of God.” Philippians 1:9-11
With this being the last official school day, our school time together is coming to an end. While i will miss sharing students' artwork and inspiration with you over the summer, i plan to keep my eyes and heart open to God. Thankfully God doesn't take a break. He is always looking for ways to help us grow in our faith and trust in Him. So i feel certain as i move about this summer, He will heap summer feedings of His Word on my plate that i will pass on to other hungry souls.
Although, i might not know your face, i know your heart. We have shared much with each other… joy, hurts, frustration, disappointments, laughter, pain, anger, confusion, restlessness, sickness and more. Hopefully, during this time you have also felt the constant presence of God; have witnessed how He guides us tenderly through hardships and trials; and have experienced how He uses absolutely e-v-e-r-y-t-h-i-n-g for His good and His glory.
As God has seen us through all times, especially difficult ones, we have grown. Grown closer to Him, closer to each other and closer to being who and what He designed us to be. I pray He uses us as a magnet to attract others to Him and His eternal kingdom. After all, isn’t that our number one mission?
