"In
the last 29 years I have finally learned that life is only about
3 things: 2. Loving People 3. Sharing the free gift of salvation as it has freely been given to me Whenever I get discouraged I simply remember I serve a supernatural God, therefore there is no excuse for me not to be living a supernatural life. So I pray, press on and there is always a new adventure before me. God is the most amazing man I could ever have a relationship with although my husband is the next runner-up. With God it's like living a life of endless adventure with your best friend, but even more than that, how about the fact that He is my SAVIOR - Not just once when He died on the cross for me, but over and over again when I simply call upon His name. |

I've worked for The Rock Church in San Diego for the last 4 years and what a joy that was, but I came to the stage that God showed me I was comfortable there. I loved going to work everyday and I loved my co-workers like family. However, God doesn't call me to be comfortable, He calls me to love on people and share His word. So as of now that calling has landed me in India and throughout Asia for the next 9 months. Currently I am in Southern India where the geography, culture, people, food, harsh living conditions, and sickness have overwhelmed me at times, I simply remember my alternative. The alternative is to return to my homeland and continue being comfortable and complacent. The mere thought repulses me enough to keep going and giving the gospel because God has come before me, He is now with me, and I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. I used to tell my friends I am a good sinner, but Praise the Lord His bloodshed says I'm a sinner who's been forgiven and washed white as snow. I used to think it was crazy to think that God could use me. Now I know it's crazy to think that He couldn't. God created every single person with a plan in mind that only their life can fulfill. I always say the more people you know, the more you see of Jesus. God created each person so unique that you see a side of Him in each person that you can never see in anyone else. What is God's plan for your life? If you don't know He'd be happy to tell you what He's created you to do....all you have to do is ask! The simplest way to enjoy life is to do what God has made you passionate about and do it for His glory. God Bless You! Never forget God loves you just the way you are, but also too much to leave you that way. Please pray for my husband and me." Praising the King for He is Worthy! Love, Octavia |
