I have seen and continue to see the Lord provide for my
needs in amazing impossible ways. He has constantly provide me somewhere to
live (even last minute sometimes), He has given me food everyday, He allowed me
to buy a reliable car, He has given me the finances to keep filling my car with
fuel, He has given me people to vent to and talk to, He has given me family
during Christmas and my Birthday when I thought I was going to be alone, He has
shown me His power and strength when I have none of my own, He has met every
need above and beyond, and He has changed me completely. These are only a few
of the things the Lord has done that have opened my eyes to how much He cares
about me.
This week as I taught the teen girls Bible study I was blown
away by how much the Lord loves us and how He planned us and created us perfect
for Him. I was teaching them on how we need to give the Lord the place of honor
in our lives and when we look down on ourselves and think badly about ourselves
we are not honoring Him. When we constantly wish we look different or were
different we are dishonoring Him because He made us perfect. We are fearfully
and wonderfully made. We went through Psalm 139 and I was blown away by the
Lord’s love for us and His perfection. He didn’t just throw us together and
think yea that’ll do. No we are skillfully made! I encourage you to read
through Psalm 139 slowly and see how much the Lord loves you and cares for you!
You truly are loved and cared about! He will provide for
your every need and He has such an amazing plan for your life!!
On another note… If you see my Instagram and or Facebook you
know that an owl (morepork) hit our window the other night. (for the full story
go here) The owl turned out to be alright and we were able to release it a hour
later. It was so beautiful!

On Thursday nights we watch the New Zealand’s hottest Home
Baker. Last Friday we decided we needed to have a little baking competition for
our home schooling that morning. We had a lot of fun with it. Zander made sugar
swirl cookies, Anri made Peanut Butter Kiss cookies, and I made Rice crispy
treats (with American marshmallows). They were all delicious but I think I won J
