This design is inspired by Psalm 30:11! The NIV version in scripture reads,

"You have turned for me my mourning into dancing; you have loosed my sackcloth and clothed me with gladness."

My testimony is of the KINDNESS and JOY of the Lord reigning over self-doubt, heavy burdens, and brokenness, and He desires this for all created in His image, which is every one of us!

My heart breaks and bleeds deeply where God's does for the abandoned, mistreated, and lonely. I believe we are called to deeply consider the heart of Christ for all who inhabit the Earth, and to intentionally respond with compassion to advocate for anyone and everyone to have the opportunity to feel seen, known, loved, and worthwhile. That being said, I am joining UGA Wesley on a ministry trip to the Murphy-Harpst Children's Center, and I need your help, both financially and through prayer and encouragement. Murphy-Harpst serves at-risk children in the child welfare system and their families in Cedartown, GA. Murphy-Harpst Children Center?s therapists will provide informational sessions to our team on how to interact with children healing from trauma, and we will have the opportunity to do therapy-guided recreational activities with children, service projects, and recreational field trips. If you know me, you probably know how much the Lord has laid it on my heart to advocate for all children and to hold hope for anyone who doesn't have the capacity or privilege to hold it for themselves. I am expectant for what God can and will do through this trip and how much we will all be humbled to open our arms and hearts to being the family God seeks to set the lonely in (Psalm 68:6)!
