Hosanna

Sometimes songs just impact you. Not sure if its that you're just paying more attention to the words at that specific moment or I like to think that God is just clearing your mind so you hear His words. Hillsong sings an incredible song, "Hosanna", that I will literally repeat 5 or 6 times before I'll go to the next song!  Here is just a snidbit of the verse:

   

"Heal my heart and make it clean

Open up my eyes to the things unseen

Show me how to love like you have loved me

Break my heart from what breaks yours

Everything I am for your

kingdoms cause

As I go from nothing to Eternity"

For myself, these words hit me while I'm serving.  Whether it be the rich or poor, elderly or children, on American or International soil ... the message is always the same, God Is Love!  These pictures are a few from a Missions trip to Pascagoula, Mississippi, 2006, just after Hurricane Katrina hit the Gulf of Mexico.  You have to believe that God's heart was breaking for these people and that my eyes were open to things I had never seen.     

Who I Am

I feel I'm in this place in life with no clear direction of where I'm headed, but I do know I'm going somewhere. I graduated from the University of Missouri with a degree in Agriculture and have a huge passion in my life for anything Ag. Since graduation I've been working as Director of the Missouri's Cattlemen Foundation.

I have the most wonderful family anyone could ever ask for it. I have 3 older siblings, which are the best cause they have given me the opportunity to be an aunt to 8 little ones; 5 nieces and 3 nephews! Talk about a ride .. every holiday is a new adventure! Oh and did I mention they all live on our family farm, within 2 miles of each other!
I've done some absolutely incredible things in my life. I've had the experience of traveling to Haiti and Ecuador on missions trips .. talk about life changing trips! Seen poverty ... seen children ... seen God work in only ways he could work!

I titled my blog, Feels Just Like a Love Song because it really puts into perspective who I am! This crazy world we live in can be hard at times, can be confusing, can be just downright exhausting. But if we just realize that the Love of God will take care of us, no matter where in this world we are or how we are feeling, Life will work out just fine!
