Sovereign over us.



There is strength within the sorrow
There is beauty in our tears
And You meet us in our mourning
With a love that casts out fear
You are working in our waiting
You're sanctifying us
When beyond our understanding
You're teaching us to trust
Your plans are still to prosper
You have not forgotten us
You're with us in the fire and the flood
You're faithful forever
Perfect in love

You are sovereign over us
You are wisdom unimagined
Who could understand Your ways
Reigning high above the Heavens
Reaching down in endless graceYou're the lifter of the lowly
Compassionate and kind
You surround and You uphold me
And Your promises are my delight
Even what the enemy means for evil
You turn it for our good
You turn it for our good and for Your glory
Even in the valley, You are faithful
You're working for our good
You're working for our good and for Your glory


What a encouraging week this has been.
God is so good, so faithful. 
Seeing all the desires of my heart that have been tucked under a mat,
not reality,
so distant.
I feel are coming to fruit. 
Through all the waiting. 
The surrendering. 
He is truly in the waiting. 

I am so eager to see how He uses me as a vessel in this new city. 
The doors He is going to open. 
Those He desires for me to love, serve and support. 
How He will use my skills,
refine them, 
and build upon them. 

Cant wait to share with you all He reveals to me. 
For you to come along on this journey with me. 
As you have been in every journey over the last 6 years. 
In all the countries I have called home. 

Keep seeking Gods purpose in your life in this season.
He will reveal it to your heart.
Be willing to lay everything down.
To give Him all your faith.
Cause He who promised is faithful. 
And He will bring fruit to the works of your hands.
and the footprint of your feet. 

In Christ's Love
