May the words of my mouth and thoughts of my heart find favor before You - O Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer. ^Psalm 19:14

My favorite words....
Glory. I want to learn to Glorify God and have His name be Glorified in my life so that I might bring Him Glory.
Bless. I want to learn to be a blessing for Life. I have been blessed, and in turn I want to Bless.
Serve. Something my amazing Maman has taught me. I want to be as selfless as my mother (and my God)...
Super-Dooper, Fantabulous, Marvelous, smiley, Terrific and any other colorful way to describe how I’m feeling. :D
Exactimonely. Because it is a word I made up….kinda

.a servant
“I have rightfully no other business each day but to do God’s work as a servant, constantly regarding His pleasure. May I have grace to live above every human motive, simply with God and to God.” ^Henry Martyn (missionary to India)
What does it mean to be a servant? Yeshua says, "But the greatest among you shall be your servant" (Matt. 23:11). I find myself thinking about so many - in the Christian population - that I come in contact with...and how mediocre they are. Many haven't ever read the whole Bible (or continue to read it), they rarely pray (and I am talking about not just before you eat....), so who can recognize them as believers? Many times I can't. How can the Lost get found and know that He is Lord when God isn't sanctified by the people already called by His name?
Matthew 25:40 and James 1:27 are so important! That is what it means to serve. And that is what I want to become. I want to be known.......as a servant.
