El Salvador

In May , my dad, grandfather and I took a missions trip to El Salvador. I thought I might share the picture slideshow :) El Salvador | 2012
We had a very blessed time. God was glorified and souls were saved! Praise the Lord!

"Have you no wish for others to be saved? Then you are not saved yourself. Be sure of that."

Persecution in Nigeria

I know I haven't posted in a while but my heart is heavy for our brothers and sisters in Nigeria. Please pray for the church there and for those who have lost their loved ones: 50 Christians burned to death in Nigeria-over a hundred dead

     

Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ. Galations 6:2

Rejoice with those who rejoice, and weep with those who weep. Romans 12:16

And if one member suffers, all the members suffer with it; or if one member is honored, all the members rejoice with it. Now you are the body of Christ, and members individually. I Corinthians 12:26-27

Remember the prisoners as if chained with them—those who are mistreated—since you yourselves are in the body also. Hebrews 13:3

For to this end we both labor and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Savior of all men, especially of those who believe. I Timothy 4:10

The Gospel Way

The Gospel Way

Blessed Lord Jesus,

No human mind could conceive or invent the gospel.

Acting in eternal grace, Thou art both its messenger and its message,

Lived out on earth through infinite compassion,

Applying Thy life to insult, injury, death,

That I might be redeemed, ransomed, and freed.

Blessed be Thou O Father, for contriving this way,

Eternal thanks to Thee, O Lamb of God, for opening this way,

Praise everlasting to Thee, O Holy Spirit, for applying this way to my heart.

Glorious Trinity impress the gospel on my soul,

Until its virtue diffuses every faculty.

Let it be heard, acknowledged, professed, felt.

Teach me to secure this mighty blessing.

Help me to give up every darling lust, to submit heart and life to its command,

To have it in my will, controlling my affections, molding my understanding,

To adhere strictly to the rules of true religion,

Not departing from the in any instance,

Nor for any advantage in order to escape evil, inconvenience, or danger.

Take me to the cross to seek glory from its infamy;

Strip me from every pleasing pretense of righteousness by my own doings.

O gracious Redeemer, I have neglected Thee too long,

Often crucified Thee,

Crucified Thee afresh by my impenitence,

Put Thee to open shame,

I thank Thee for the patience that has borne with me for so long,

And for the grace that makes me willing to be Thine

O unite me to Yourself with inseparable bonds,

That nothing may ever draw me back from Thee, my Lord, my Savior.

~Puritan Prayer~

The Joys of Life

My littlest sister Kourtneigh is probably about the cutest thing you will ever find. I know I'm a little biased but what can you do? :)
She is famous for her dancing and I finally caught her in the act! She is one precious little child of God, and always has a grand way of making me laugh.

Remembering Peru

Though I am not in Peru any longer the people and events that took place there will forever be in my heart and thoughts. So many faces flood my mind when I pray for Peru, I wish I knew all of their names. Going through the hundreds of pictures I have makes me feel almost as if I am back in Peru....I wish I would have been able to do more. What saddens my heart is that many of those people that I can remember and have pictures of do not know our Lord Jesus Christ. Pray for Peru-they are a nation in need....not only of money for the poor, or character but they are in need of the gospel of Jesus Christ. They are heading toward an eternity without our Lord and an enternity in the fires of hell. Pray that their hearts would be softened and that God would send labourers into this grand harvest!
