So I changed my name. The first reason being that I get bored of things quickly and cannot seem to commit to one thing for too long :)
The other is that I wanted my blog name to truly reflect the things I am trying to say through my writing.
One thing I learned in Kenya is that it doesn't matter who you are, what you can do, or what you can't do. God can use you. I am not degrading myself or expressing a lack of confidence in who I am through this title. I am admitting that I am simply a girl, but I know that God can use me to do great things. However, it is ONLY through Him that I do anything of worth in this life.
My ministry partner, Audrey, preached on the passage 2 Corinthians 4:7-9;
7 But we have this treasure in jars of clay, to show that the surpassing power belongs to God and
not to us. 8 We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair;
9 persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed;
She spoke about how we are the jars of clay. We are not something amazing, we are people. We are messed up and broken. But, we can hold something so valuable. That is the Holy Spirit. I am just a girl. I can't do ANYTHING worthwhile without Him. But with Him in me and working through me, I can do incredible things.
