So far, I must confess, 2015 has probably been my favourite year. It has flown by in a flurry of service, work, beautiful friendships and answered prayer. Do & Dare has already blessed my soul with it's atmosphere of genuine searching to know Christ personally and deeply. God did a mighty work at camp this year of which I will be eternally grateful. There is nothing like a week when you pushed out of your comfort zone and stretched to your limits to draw you closer to Christ. When they truth hits you that God is the only one who can sustain you, there is nothing you can do but throw yourself completely into His arms and trust Him to carry you through.
While I'm here, I just want to share with you a few verses that have helped bring me through the last few weeks. While they have been beautiful and blessed, they have not been easy and these verses have always been dropped in my lap just when I needed them. I hope they bless and encourage you as much as they did me.
"God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea…the LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Come, behold the works of the LORD…Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth. The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge." Ps 46:1-2,7,8,10-11
"Counsel is mine, and sound wisdom: I am understanding; I have strength." Proverbs 8:14
"In the fear of the Lord is strong confidence: and His children shall have a place of refuge." Proverbs 14:26
