Courage isn't about knowing the path, it's about taking the first step.

Adoption is a redemptive response to tragedy that happens in this broken world.

Jesus wrecked my life, shattered it to pieces, and put it back together more beautifully.

Poverty is not a sin; it is a condition, a circumstance that allows God's work to be displayed.

Every day I have spent in Uganda has been beautifully overwhelming; everywhere I have looked, raw, filthy, human need and brokenness have been on display, begging for someone to meet them, fix them. And even though I realize I cannot always mend or meet, I can enter in. I can enter into someone's pain and sit with them and know. This is Jesus. Not that He apologizes for the hard and the hurt, but that he enters in, He comes with us to the hard places. And so I continue to enter.

Thankfully, God's plans also happen to be much better than my own.

Do not forget in the darkness what you have been promised in the light.
