"Why not get your glory from God? Why not accept your feelings of redemption
because of His pleasure in you, not the fickle and empty favor of man? And only
then will you know who you are, and only then will you have true uninhibited
relationships with others"
- Donald Miller Searching For God Knows What

I am so grateful that the Lord pushed me to read this book. It has spoken directly to my
goal for this trip: LET GOD LOVE ME SO THAT I CAN LOVE OTHERS
I am so tired of portraying someone that people will approve of. My eyes have been opened
to how much my love for and from God is affecting my love for others. Without receiving his
love, his approval, his redemption I will never be able to pour into others. It's not about being the best Christian or being the best dressed in the eyes of others. It's about recognizing that I'm the worst and it's only through Christ's identity that I can be approved.
