Joy is the settled assurance that God is in control of all the details of my life, the quiet confidence that ultimately everything is going to be alright, and the determined choice to praise God in every situation.

I'm so thankful our God is the Healer ❤️ If you're heart broken tonight, know that He is there. I'm praying that He brings you peace and comfort and heals your heart.
This Summer I am going to be a part of the Africa Clean Water Adventure with missions.me! We are going to Ghana, Africa July 7th-July 16th. We will get to minister to families as we open 50 water wells in 50 villages. It is such an amazing opportunity and I'm excited for what God is doing in Africa! I still need to raise $3,295. Please believe and agree with me that it's paid in full! đź’• (photos from missions.me and charity water.)

Love by choice not by circumstance.
One thing I’ve learned is that just because God puts a dream in our hearts doesn’t mean it’s going to come to pass without any opposition. See, God is going to grow us up. He’s going to mature us. He’s going to prepare us to handle the promotion He has in store.
I think about Joseph in the Bible. Starting out, he didn’t have a whole lot of wisdom. He was young and immature, and God had to do a work in his life. Joseph probably shouldn’t have told his brothers about his dream that they would one day serve him! As you can imagine, his brothers were not nearly as excited about that as he was. Long story short, Joseph had to go through some things to grow up and be ready for the promotion God had in store.
It’s the same way with us today. You may have a dream in your heart that seems a million miles away, but just like Joseph, God can take you from the prison to the palace in one step. During the growing process, keep yourself focused on Him and allow Him to do His work in your life. Keep a humble attitude of faith before Him, and He will lead you and guide you into the destiny He has prepared for you!
“You, therefore, must be perfect [growing into complete maturity of godliness in mind and character, having reached the proper height of virtue and integrity], as your heavenly Father is perfect” (Matthew 5:48, AMP)

My soul will rest in Your embrace. For I am Yours and You are mine.
A Letter From the Father…
When the waters seem to be up to your neck, fear not, but tread steady. You shall see that just as the waves crash against you, so does my love crash against your heart. Look about you in this mighty sea of grace! As far as the east is from the west, you are COVERED! Shall you find the end? Shall you dare look for the beginning? I tell you the truth, look around you! You are COVERED in my love! To be in the deep waters of my grace is not something to be anxious about! Instead, rejoice! The depth is too deep for you to find and the width is too far for you to reach! Oh, just allow yourself to bask in this sea of mercy. This sea of grace. This sea of love. Let the constant downpour of my love, fall upon you like rain! This is where you belong. Consumed and covered by me!
Precious to me are your ways my child. Oh how I am lifting you up! Higher places of authority, and higher standards of living! AÂ prerequisite into my Kingdom is love. Love shall surround and engulf all areas of your life. Imagine the things I have planned for you and realize my plans are far greater than what your mind can comprehend. You may struggle with believing that I have called you into these great and mighty things, but oh that I have, my child. I have.Â
Allow me to take you into new areas of my presence. You, my child, could not imagine the fulness. No man could. It would be physically impossible for you to stand before me if I revealed myself to you in all of my glory! But oh I tell you, you shall see great and beautiful things in your time! I am sending you out to many places! This isn’t about what you’ve done, but what is being done through you. Continue in my Word daily, and ask my Spirit to guide your steps in all places and cities.Â
Pressure. My hand upon you may cause you to feel some pressure, but rejoice! For under my hand you will be strengthened and set even further apart from the world! Oh you make me so happy, my child! I delight in all of your ways, for I find them pure in my eyes! Your heart has been set on the greater purpose of things. Your mind has been focused to the Kingdom culture. You are now in habitation for my glory! Rest easy now and watch as I transform even the most simple tasks to show my glory. My ultimate purpose for you is this: you shall reflect me in all of your ways. When man looks at you, they will see me. This then, I shall find pleasing and right. I love you greatly and eternally.

Christ is the lionhearted King and the Lamb that was slain, the Judge of all the earth and the Priest who sacrificed Himself for the guilty.
Paul Washer
Today after work I stopped at a store… While inside a woman approached me and proceeded to ask me out… I told her I was married.. she said she didn’t mind… I kindly informed her that I did mind.. & that I had no interest in cheating on my wife…" I don’t get turned down a lot, your wife must be very pretty" she said.. I informed her that my wife is pretty but that wasn’t why I stay faithful to her. She then implied that my wife must take very good care of my “physical needs"… Again I told her that’s not why I’m faithful. “Why then? Doesn’t she get on your nerves sometimes? She can’t be perfect and what’s wrong with a little side action?" I told her that I didn’t just make a commitment to my wife.. I made one to God. My love for my wife is supposed to be a reflection of God’s love for me. & God hasn’t stopped loving me even though I messed up, fall short, make mistakes …even though I’m less than perfect he still loves me ..for better or for worst .. in the good times and the bad He remains faithful. I told her that’s the kind of husband I strive to be faithful regardless of the circumstances I told her that even if she was prettier than my wife, my commitment still stands, if my wife wasn’t taking care of my physical needs… my commitment still stands.. even if my wife was unfaithful…my commitment still stands. I told her that my goal isn’t just to make my wife happy, my goal is to please God with the way I treat my wife, regardless of if I’m in her presence or not. The woman started crying “I want love like that" she said. I told her that Someone already loves her like that… We prayed the sinner’s prayer in the store…. So my brothers & sisters we have a new sister in Christ! She asked if she could call me if she had any questions.. given the circumstances… I gave her my wifes number (playing it safe lol) please keep her in prayer. -David Alan Campbell
