I want to use this blog to write stories of the Lord's faithfulness. I think one of the most essential things that Christ centered organizations, movements, and communities need is affirmation. In a world where everything bad is highlighted, it is important to make others aware of the blessings, improvements, and victories that the Lord is doing through and around us. My hope for this blog is to be a source of encouragement and motivation to you!

I was reading in Romans 4-6 this morning and was reminded of God's beautiful gift to us. Chapter 3 is all about judgment, and then chapter 4 uses the life of Abraham to show that his faith was counted as righteousness in God's sight. It is by faith that we are justified through Jesus Christ. In sending His son, God was reconciling us to Himself. It's just nice to be reminded of the fact that our Majestic, Mighty, All-powerful, Radiant, and All-Surpassing God desires closeness with us. Sending His beautiful and perfect son to die for the ungodly, that He might be able to love us more closely and commune with us again someday in the way that He originally created us, by His side.
