God has given us the honor to be a part of sharing the Gospel through Anchor of Hope Church in India. 🇮🇳 We have been working with Pastor Isaiah Kakinati and his family for about 10 years, and all together dream of one day maybe even having the honor to serve together. 😊
Please keep their family and the ministry field God has placed them on in your prayers. ❤️
Below are photos of the Christmas Day service and Christmas gifts for the children in the orphanage. ❤️🥰

When God spoke to our hearts 💕 to be available on Christmas Day even if it was for one.. We though it might probably be just one. Once again He reminded us that when we are obedient He is faithful to do the rest! ❤️🥹

Because of the finished work, through the blood 🩸 of Jesus, at Calvary ✝️..we are made righteous! We no longer need a priest to enter the holy of holies to make atonement for our sins. Jesus paid our sin debt in full! ❤️🙌🏼
He is our Royal Priesthood! 🥰
Now we are given the honor to be in the presence of the Father, joint heirs with His Son Jesus..freely! Given the honor to truly know Him through the Holy Spirit!
No more Levitical Order needed to reveal to us right from wrong, and every necessary decision process in our lives. God’s loving ❤️desire for us, now reigns within us! Leading us into all truths! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Knowing Him, only requires us drawing into His presence, and allowing Him to be Lord and Savior of our life!
Just like Paul said, to His Savior, Christ Jesus, on the road to Damascus…
“Lord..what would you have me do…?”
It was that simple surrender that revealed to him the knowledge of his blindness! He was now, no longer bound by darkness, but now he could see clearly the power 💥 of the Love ❤️ of God! 🥹✝️🩸❤️🙌🏼
God desires nothing more than for us to truly know Him, and lavish His Love upon us!!
Imagine watching someone you love, go through something so difficult, pushing your love away. When all you want is to love them! 😢 All you want is for them to see their worth! For them to understand, the love you have for them, and that you see past all their faults and love them anyways!!
Even greater is the Love ❤️ of God! He is Love! 💕
No greater gift! 💝 No one will ever love us like He does! 🥹🙌🏼❤️

We are so proud of our sweet grand babies! ❤️ They ran up and down the steps, all day refilling bibles, school supplies, and groceries bags. 🥰
They even came together to pray for some families that wanted to be prayed for. 🥹
Thank you so much ❤️ to everyone who came out to the farm this past weekend. Our family truly appreciates it, and we pray you were blessed! 🥹

Good Word! ❤️

Jesus in John 10 tells us that if we try any other way to get to God, or heaven. We become a thief or a robber. Jesus already did the work for us on the cros...

A little “Monday Message” from the farm.. ❤️
I don’t know about you, but this was one of my favorite verses as a child! ❤️ Then, as I got older not so favorable..😕

You see it became more of a reminder to me of my failures. A reminder of my failures, because as life began to break my heart, I would remember this favorite childhood verse, and think of how far away from feeling like a conqueror I was feeling..😞
The thing is, I didn’t understand the power of His Love ❤️ for me, and thought that the need for strength, came from me alone. 😩
The thing is though, we are more than conquerors solely because of His ❤️ Love for us!

No one could ever love us like He does!
We could never love ourselves with a greater love than He has for us!
We will never be able to truly love, without knowledge of His amazing ❤️ Love!

The closer I began to draw to the Father, the more I desired to know His Love ❤️..the more I trusted in the mighty power it contains!
The power to sustain!
The power to satisfy!
The power to give us rest!
The power to have joy within that makes us stronger!!
The power to create in us a conquistador spirit! 🙌🏼❤️
Through knowledge of His Love, once again Romans chapter 8 brings me so much joy! 🥲 Joy unspeakable and full of His glory!
We don’t have to worry whether we are able, whether we are good enough!
He already is for us!
His Love ❤️ is so amazing! 😭❤️🙌🏼
