provision.

We were asked what our theme verse was going to be during this season of DTS; when I was on the plane, I was praying about the same thing, I kept asking Lord, what can I go back to for encouragement, revelation and hope? He was faithful in giving this one:
Philippians 3:14 says, "I press on toward the goal for the prize of the heavenly call of God in Christ Jesus."
Coming into YWAM, I was passionate about Christ. The only thing I'm really good at is believing and holding on to the whole hearted truth that He exists. I haven't ever been good at math, or science. I love English and history fascinates me but they didn't motivate me. I didn't wake in the morning craving to give God glory through any 'gifts' like sports or song, but by simply living my life. My decisions haven't always presented my Holy God in Holy light, and my life has been a wreck more than once. I haven't read through all the bible or spoke in tongues. I have failed and will continue to. Through all of it, though He held on to His promise(s) and because of that, my passion only ignited. His truth is fire in my lungs. His grace is a flowing of tears. His love is unfathomable so, I came in knowing ministry was what I wanted. I didn't know where or what that looked like and I still don't know but,
This season, I press.
Towards the goal of heaven.
Towards the goal of that heavenly call I can't see.
Towards the prize that will be given when I answer that call.
