more of Him

This has been one crazy weekend, I can't really go into details, but let's just say we have a couple girls trying to get kicked out. It breaks my heart to watch them hurt so much. I'm thankful for God's patience He has been giving us. I pray that they reach their breaking point, and realize there is no place else for them to look, except for Christ and that we can love them like Christ loves them.

God is constantly reminding me that it's not about me.

My prayer is that there would be less of me and more of Him.

transition

ok so it's been awhile since i last updated. a lot has changed since then, including my position at Doulos Ministries. i recently started as a house director in the girl's house. along with that in the past two weeks we have doubled the number of littles and bigs. Doulos had a second property, but decided to consolidate into one property here in Kansas City. the transition has been crazy, but also exciting. there has also been a little restructuring going on in the houses. there are now 3 house directors and 1 resident director in the girls house.

along with all this change, my leadtime class just left about a week ago. it has been really hard for me to say goodbye to them, i've spent the last year of my life with them day in and day out and many intense situations with them. so needless to say it has been hard to say goodbye. it's been hard to trust what God is doing, but then again i know that through all of this i have had to continually lean on Him because I can't do this, only He can.

i am excited for this next year. i'm excited to see how God is going to use us and how He is going to continue using all this change to grow us closer to Him and to bring glory to His name. some prayer requests:

-that God will unify the staff

-that God would be breaking our hearts for what breaks His

-that we would earnestly be seeking Him

-community

-that we would be relational and not just about the rules
