Had the privilege of shooting these gorgeous two little ladies, Amariah & Sadie when I stayed with their family in Colorado over the summer. I have so much love for this family & how they’ve overcome the hardships in their lives, and see such a big, bright future for these girls! I cannot wait to shoot with them again, and exchange beautiful stories on how God is moving through all our lives. Snapped: Love Yaz, July 2016.

As I overlooked this valley in Yosemite, all I could do was marvel. It brought something that had just been prophecied over me, to life. This little trip I took through the USA in June/July, was full of so many awe-inspiring and glorious moments that showed me what I was put on this earth to do. All I can say is watch this space for what’s coming. Below is what was spoken over my life, and I couldn’t be more expectant for the new season. I hope y’all are ready!   Ezekiel 37: 1-14. The hand of the Lord was on me, and he brought me out by the Spirit of theLord and set me in the middle of a valley; it was full of bones. 2 He led me back and forth among them, and I saw a great many bones on the floor of the valley, bones that were very dry. 3 He asked me, “Son of man, can these bones live?”I said, “Sovereign Lord, you alone know.”4 Then he said to me, “Prophesy to these bones and say to them, ‘Dry bones, hear the word of the Lord! 5 This is what the Sovereign Lord says to these bones: I will make breath[a] enter you, and you will come to life. 6 I will attach tendons to you and make flesh come upon you and cover you with skin; I will put breath in you, and you will come to life. Then you will know that I am the Lord.’”7 So I prophesied as I was commanded. And as I was prophesying, there was a noise, a rattling sound, and the bones came together, bone to bone. 8 I looked, and tendons and flesh appeared on them and skin covered them, but there was no breath in them.9 Then he said to me, “Prophesy to the breath; prophesy, son of man, and say to it, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: Come, breath, from the four winds and breathe into these slain, that they may live.’” 10 So I prophesied as he commanded me, and breath entered them; they came to life and stood up on their feet—a vast army.11 Then he said to me: “Son of man, these bones are the people of Israel. They say, ‘Our bones are dried up and our hope is gone; we are cut off.’ 12 Therefore prophesy and say to them: ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: My people, I am going to open your graves and bring you up from them; I will bring you back to the land of Israel. 13 Then you, my people, will know that I am the Lord, when I open your graves and bring you up from them. 14 I will put my Spirit in you and you will live, and I will settle you in your own land. Then you will know that I the Lord have spoken, and I have done it, declares the Lord.’”

We’re called to be light in the darkness & colour when it’s fading away. We’re so privileged to be able to wander around to see the wonder of the world. Let’s allow it to captivate us, and cultivate a culture of beauty within us. -Image snapped by Love Yaz in Yosemite National Park, USA, July 2016-

-- Where We Dwell is coming. Are you along for the ride? -- WorshipU on Campus 2016 is fast approaching and I am really expectant for God to do something incredible that overflows into every city on this planet. Where we dwell is more than just our spot on this earth, it’s how we bring Heaven along with us. It’s that tangible presence of the Holy Spirit we feel in a moment when we walk past someone that carries it. It’s how our spirits are connected, because we walk with the same one. It’s how our destinies collide because it’s more than who we are to others, it’s who we are in Christ. My prayer is that everyone who is going through a rough patch before school starts in 10 days time can make it there knowing that when we dwell with other believers, anything is possible. Matthew 18:20 “For where two or more are gathered in my name, I’m there with them”. My heart cry is that this scripture can bring hope & joy to you as we walk into a season of growth, both as a community and as individuals. See you all soon!
