As I See Things...

The current view from my kitchen window.

The beautiful rain drops hang delicately from the tarp, giving it the appearance of beads hanging from fabric.

It makes me think of India.


I am reminded of the rich, brilliant colors of saris, decorated with beads and sequins...the beautiful people that wear the colorful clothing.




We've talked a lot about our home addition, and of "lessons learned". We have been so excited about Jackson having a place. We are just as excited to see the "family room" come together.

You see, it is from this room that we will be able to train and release young people, with a heart for the Lord, into All the World. It is a place where we will gather and laugh, pray, share stories, worship, play games and grow in relationship with the Lord and with one another. It is a place where we will learn and grow in the ways of God.

As I see things, we are not just building for the sake of building. As I see things, we are building the kingdom of God. We are building bridges that allow young people to walk fully into their destiny's. We are building bridges that lead to the nations.

As I see things, I realize that I am only getting a glimpse of all that God is wanting to do...here and around the world.

As I see things, I want God to help me to see things BIGGER...through His perspective.

As I see things, I want to see how He sees.
