Lately, the Lord has been teaching me a lot about intimacy.  and deepening my relationship with Him. He has been reminding me that even as there is so much uncertainty, and that sometimes I don't know what it is going on, or what is my nest step, that I can rely on Him, and the truths of His word. That He will always love me, and that will never fail. He is always there, even when I can't see Him or feel Him, because I relationship with Christ isn't always about a feeling, but rather it is about grounding myself, and allowing my roots to grow deep in who He is and who He says I am. Col. 2:7 "Let your roots grow down into him, and let your lives be built on him. Then your faith will grow strong in the truth you were taught, and you will overflow with thankfulness."

These past two weeks have been filled with many amazing encounters with the Lord. Some fierce spiritual warfare, a lot of tears, and a lot of love in my classroom. Us 10 girls, and 2 staff have really been through a lot lately, and have been bonding together to have deeper intimacy with the Lord, and to seek Him out everyday.  Last week we had a time of response to the Lord that was so beautiful and God really challenged me to surrender my perfect plan back to Him, and to trust the greatness of His plan. That it is far better than mine, and that His timing is perfect. That for now He may be having to take out good things in my life, only to make way for better things. He promised that if I lean on Him in this desert season, that it wont last forever, but that we will make it out together. Song of Solomon 8:5 "Who is that coming up from the wilderness, leaning on her beloved?"

May the Lord meet you and bless you this week. Below are a few very special photos from these past couple weeks.
