merely an eyewitness of his majesty...

It has almost been a week since Ginna and I landed on US soil. What a mixture of emotions it was to come "home" after Mozambique was very much our home this past year. The day after arriving home, the Lord and I began to reflect together on this past year...how lovely He has been. And as I have shared with many...the greatest miracle of all was the miracles that took place in my heart and spirit while away. I have such a deeper understanding of the Lord's love for me...this is not to be taken lightly. Its only in truly recieving this love from Him that I am able to love others in a way that honors Him. I am convinced that even in taking my last breath during this lifetime, I still wont fully grasp God's amazing love.

As I anticipate continuing to share with others of the Lord's goodness this past year in Africa...I think of what the Lord reminded me of this morning as I sat amongst wild flowers. I was reminded in 2 Peter 1:16 that I am merely an eyewitness of his majesty. This sums it up...the Lord was so faithful....I was an eyewitnesses as God loved, provided, healed, saved as He does so well.
