“As the heavens are higher than the earth, 

   so are my ways higher than your ways 

   and my thoughts than your thoughts."

-Isaiah 55:9

Jesus, why do i think that i have things figured out? Especially when the plans weren't even mine.  You told me where to walk, you told me when to speak.  When you try to develop patience in me i get frustrated and try to figure things out on my own.  I'm sorry, i'm sorry for being selfish, for being human.  I love you, i give this up to you, it's your plan.  Its your idea. It's your extraordinarily plan.  I'll just follow, your holy feet leading the way.

i love you. 

"I myself no longer live, but Christ lives within me." -Galatians 2:20

I was baptized when i was born, but doing it as my choice is something so much more incredible.  This past year of half I've dedicated my life to following Jesus, and now its official. 

The newness of life comes only from the Savior, this fulfillment comes only from Jesus.  

Thank you Jesus, for saving me.

"I am still confident of this:  I will see the goodness of the

 Lord in the land of the living.  

Wait for the Lord;  be strong and take heart 

and wait for the Lord."

- Psalm 27: 13-14

I will wait, and wait for my Lord to tell me where my feet shall land.  He is so outside of time that it does not seem like a long time for Him.  My patience will be stretched and i'm thankful for that.  In this waiting period, it is always a learning period.  I know what my God has called, just not where.  I can still do so much here for Him, i still wait for Him even in my shortest distance.  I cannot do even the easiest thing without Him, it isnt worth it.  He is my heart, He is my soul, He is my everything.  I'm confident that my answer will come, and when it does i will just look up and smile at my Savior, because he is always so faithful.  Even when i am far from it.



Jesus, guide my steps.  Direct my life.  I'm dependent on you.

The slightest hint of you brought me down to my knees.

What do I know of You 

Who spoke me into motion? 

Where have I even stood 

But the shore along Your ocean? 

Are You fire? Are You fury? 

Are You sacred? Are You beautiful? 

What do I know? What do I know of Holy? 

"Then i looked and heard the voice of many angels, numbering thousands upon thousands, and ten thousand times ten thousand. They encircled the throne and the living creatures and the elders.  In a loud voice they sang.

"worthy is the Lamb, who was slain,

to receive power and wealth and 

wisdom and strength and honor and glory and praise."-Revelation 5:11-12

As i go throughout my day, i talk to Jesus.  Its normal conversation, to ask Him things, just to keep us in contact.  Sometimes though, it becomes routine and i forget who i have the privilege of even being in the presence of.  This God that has breathed me into life, this God that said one word and made the world, this God that holds the who universe between His hands.  That same God wants to be a part of my life, that same God touches my heart with those same hands.  This God is beyond even my slightest comprehension.  I try to figure Him out, and sometimes i think i have but than He brings me to my knees and reminds me just who i am serving. SERVING, thats the key word.  I am nothing, literally i am dust without my God.  He lives inside me, even though i am filled with sin, he cleans me out makes a kingdom for himself inside of me.  How incredible, how unimaginable is OUR God.  As i get ready for school, i'm so glad he has reminded me of who i'm serving.  So i can at least try to portray who i am living for.  So maybe, just maybe the people i come in contact with can catch just a glimpse of who He is, through me. When i say that my stomach turns, the all mighty God being shown through me.  What a privilege it is to even know our God. I'm so overwhelmed at this moment in time.  

Thank you God, for being my fulfillment, for giving me a piece of humble pie for breakfast.  You are Holy, and i dont even know what that means. But thats what you are.  Thank you for giving me life and for helping me be a mirror of who you are.  I'm amazed by you. I'm in love with you. And i will praise you for ALL of my days.

“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.” - Jeremiah 29:11-13


I know that if i keep praying that He will answer.  He will lead me to a land where He needs me.  I know my life is more than what it is now, i know i'm called to something larger.  I do not need to worry about the issues, God changes hearts, he brings money, he delivers me.  He is my strength, He is my comfort.  He knows where i'm going to end up, He knows how i'm going to get there. HE KNOWS. I just know to trust Him. 


If my God is for me, than who could ever stop me?  

Count the cost.

Let me give you some statistics before i start. 

4.5 billion people do not believe in Jesus Christ, there may be more. That means those 4.5 billion people are doomed to eternal hell.  

What are we going to do about it?

Christ does not ask us to give some of our lives to Him, he isnt asking for half of our heart. He is asking for EVERYTHING. Everything we have is to given to Him. Our love for Jesus should cause us to make radical changes in our lives to help that 4.5 billion people reach eternity with Christ.  

As i sit here and type this children are dying from extreme poverty, hunger and PREVENTABLE diseases.  As i sit here in my heated house, with my fancy laptop and my kitchen full of food that i have at my disposal. CHILDREN ARE DYING. 

Proverbs 21:13 says "Whoever shuts their ears to the cry of the poor 

will also cry out and not be answered." 

Proverbs 14:31 says "Whoever oppresses the poor shows contempt for their Maker,but whoever is kind to the needy honors God."

We are CALLED to feed the hungry, to clothe the naked.  I am strangled by my comfortable life, i dont know how to live now that i know these circumstances.  I dont know about you, but i'm not going to sit back and watch this happen. I've counted my cost, and its going to cost me my whole life, but its worth it. 

WE ARE THE HANDS AND FEET OF JESUS, LETS ACT LIKE IT.

Do not forget in the darkness what you have been promised in the light.

"What, therefore, is our task today? Should I answer "Faith, hope and love?" That sounds beautiful. But I would say - courage. No, even that is not challenging enough to be the whole truth. Our task today is recklessness. For what we Christians lack is not psychology or literature... we lack a holy rage - the recklessness which comes from the knowlege of God and humanity. The ability to rage when justice lies prostrate on the streets, and when the lie rages across the face of the earth... a holy anger about the things that are worng in the world. To rage against the ravaging of God's earth and and the desruction of God's people. To rage when little children must die of hunger, while the tables of the rich are sagging with food. To rage at the senseless killing of so many, and the madness of militaries. To rage against the lie that calls the threat of death and the strategy of destrustion peace. To rage against COMPLACENCY. To restlessly seek that recklessness that will challenge and seek to change human history until it conforms to the norms of the kingdom of God."

-Father Kaj Munk, 1944

The call of my Father.

"Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it says is like someone who looks at his face in a mirror and, after looking at himself, goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like. But whoever looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues in it—not forgetting what they have heard, but doing it—they will be blessed in what they do." James 1: 23-25


In this comfortable life i lead there is little trouble, there is no hunger and there is no sickness.  God has blessed me abundantly with a very comfortable lifestyle.  I am so thankful for this, but i feel the call of my father.  I feel the call to "come".  I've asked Him, just like Peter did to call me to "come".  He has said "Come."  I do not know where this call will bring me, i do not know what this call require but i'm guessing nothing less than my life.  This blog is for me, and for whoever may stumble upon it to gather and see the journey He is leading me on.  I have no idea where i will be lead, but He does.  I have no idea what i will be doing, but He does.  His calling is strong, and my heart is eager to listen.  Father, i am here, use me.


I'm Chelsea, i'm 19, and i'm in love with my Saviour's voice.
