Lord, thank you for the abundant joy and peace in my life. I find peace in fellowship and joy in Your Word when we gather to talk and study it.

You bring fulfillment to my life with clarity as long as I remain focused on your will. My submission to you is sincere and complete. I trust in you, having faith that you will never disappoint or forsake me. You complete me fully. I love you so much, Father!

Each day, I grasp the depth of your sacrifice, enduring pain and suffering out of love for me. You loved me before I even existed, knowing me better than I know myself. I love You. Thank you, Lord, for guiding me, teaching me, and drawing me closer to you. Continue to enlighten me with your Word so that I may never stray from your path. May I always fix my gaze upon Jesus Christ, my Lord and Savior.

Thank you, Lord. I love you.

Starting this journal with the contents of my heart.

It’s been a busy week, and I thank the Lord for keeping my mind focused on Him amidst the hustle. I’m truly blessed to have fellowship with such amazing people in my life right now. I’m in awe of how the Lord has placed me exactly where I need to be at this moment in my life.

Sunday night, we had a fantastic Bible study at our brother and sister’s house, delving into Matthew 24. It was an enriching experience, navigating through such a significant chapter with a diverse group of faithful believers. The Lord gracefully led us through it, and I cherish the fellowship my wife and I share with our newfound family.

This week promises to be busy, and I pray it will be fruitful. In a couple of weeks, we’ll be heading to Florida, which stirs mixed emotions within me. I’ll miss my beloved family here, but I trust that the Lord is sending us to shine His light in Florida. Though the weight of responsibility weighs on me, I trust that He will guide me through every step until I return home, a month later.

For the past four years, the Lord has been preparing me for a purpose. While it may not specifically be this trip, my life is profoundly dependent on Him, leading me to do things I never imagined and transforming me in ways I never thought possible. Witnessing this transformation firsthand fills me with gratitude, realizing the truth of God’s work in my life and in the lives of those around me. It’s indescribable.

I hope this post brings clarity rather than confusion. May God bless you and illuminate your path with His light.

Psalm 119:105 – “Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path.”
