14 years of loving Haiti
We have loved. We have lost. We have learned to hold people and places with open hands, coming to understand the fragility of it all.
People over projects
Occasionally weep deeply over the life you hoped would be. Grieve the losses. Then wash your face. Trust God. And embrace the life you have. John Piper
From 2013 to today
And I now know - without any doubt in my mind - that I am rooted and grounded to a place that has completely broken my heart and yet so perfectly healed my soul.
You are more than able
Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.
Ephesians 3:20-21
You can’t go home again
And after yesterday, they each had assurance that they could always come back home again because no matter what might happen on the road ahead, each would always be deeply loved and accepted.
Connections of the heart
I can’t say we asked in faith “nothing wavering” because I know my faith wavered again and again. Yet God was always faithful.
But today we are heartbroken
I heard a loud shout from the throne, saying, “Look, God’s home is now among his people! He will live with them, and they will be his people. God himself will be with them.
He will wipe every tear from their eyes, and there will be no more death or sorrow or crying or pain. All these things are gone forever.”
Revelation 21:3-4
He Won’t Fail
I've still got joy in chaos
I've got peace that makes no sense
So, I won't be going under
I'm not held by my own strength
'Cause I've built my life on Jesus
He's never let me down
He's faithful in every season
So, why would He fail now?
