Your Love is Everything

I forgot to mention in my last blog that I went to the Passion Sydney World Tour. I think this was Passion's first world tour. Passion is a group, started by Louie Giglio (a Christian speaker), that goes around and hosts conferences. Passion conferences are known for their music (well-known Christian artists tour with them, such as Chris Tomlin, David Crowder, Christy Nockels, etc.), but they include so much more than that. I had SUCH a good time! What an inspiring night! It opened up my eyes to the world even more! They went to some 17 cities (I think), and at each city, they would take up an offering to fund the next city (because tickets are free), and that city would pray for the next one as well. I was blown away when Louie Giglio told us that one of the poorest places in Africa gave several thousand dollars to one of the richest places in the world - Paris, France. They were pretty sure no one had ever asked these Africans to give anything, since they don't have much, but they were so willing. Imagine the trust they had to place in God! Amazing people, I tell ya!

Speaking of trusting in God, I am having opportunity after opportunity to do this myself. I found out just a couple hours ago that one of my really close friends back in the States has cancer. When I hung up with her, I immediately went to her picture (I just decorated my room last night with tons of pictures, and cute stuff!) on my wall, and laid hands on that picture of her, and just prayed and spoke life into her body. Can I just say that my God is above cancer? It's so true! Testimony after testimony has proved His Word true - "O LORD my God, I called to you for help and you healed me." (Psalm 30:2)

To my friend - if you read this, hold onto this verse. You may not have much trust left inside of you for God, but just test Him in this, okay? I love you! :) You're constantly in my prayers!

To the other readers - if there is one person you could pray for, it would be this friend. You don't need to know her name, or anything else but that she is struggling with cancer, and also needs financial provision!

Thank you so much!

While I was praying over my friend, I felt like love and healing went hand in hand. I thought, "God, can love heal someone?". As I was listening to a great song called "Your Love is Everything" by Jesus Culture, I realized I found the answer to that question. Check out the lyrics:

When I'm dry and thirsty Lord,
And I'm crying out for more,
I know I can trust in your love.
In the darkness in the night
When I'm starving for the light
I know I can trust in Your love.

You keep no records of my sin,
You don't remember all my shame.

Your love heals every disease
Your love fulfills my every need
Your love is everything to me
Your love is everything

I will not forget
I wont forget your promises
I will not forget
I wont forget your love.

I will not forget
I wont forget nothing is impossible
I will not forget
I wont forget your love.
