Random thoughts and reflections on life, love, and Jesus…. May 11, 2010. Greater Things Are Still To Be Done: Haiti (part two). Many people have asked what we specifically did there, so this post will focus on that. I am used to plans, details, specifics. But I quickly learned that allowing the Holy Spirit to work and lead is the best way to go! It was hard to look around the community and grasp that this was real…that this is their reality, their daily life, and they can’t easily escape. Our house had e...

God is Awesome… | Pondering...
https://lesaclose.wordpress.com/2010/08/18/god-is-awesome
Random thoughts and reflections on life, love, and Jesus…. August 18, 2010. God is Awesome…. God answered that prayer in an unexpected way! I ended up going to Denver for work on Monday night through Tuesday, and we took a later flight home than expected, which allowed me to hang out with her, Wes, and our friend Allegra for hours! What an awesome God we serve, who takes care of His children! I love that I got to see them, only 10 days after their wedding. God is simply awesome… :0). My Walk With God.

Random thoughts and reflections on life, love, and Jesus…. January 12, 2010. Of Taste Buds and Winter…. I often wonder about strange things…I love pondering, hence the name of this blog. I often think about random things, and most recently it’s been taste buds. What a wonderful creation they are! How are these things related? I’m holding out for something more, to find the purpose for which God created me, and the purpose for which He brought me to Pennsylvania. I know in my heart that He has a...You are...

Random thoughts and reflections on life, love, and Jesus…. May 11, 2010. You’re the God of THIS City: Haiti (part three). 8216;”My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness.”. So now I am glad to boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ can work through me. That’s why I take pleasure in my weaknesses, and in the insults, hardships, persecutions, and troubles that I suffer for Christ. For when I am weak, then I am strong.’. 8211;2 Corinthians 12:9-10. That was only 10 miles from...

Random thoughts and reflections on life, love, and Jesus…. January 27, 2010. So, I’m Engaged… :). It doesn’t feel real. I have waited so long for God to bring my future husband into my life, and it is still sometimes hard to grasp the fact that I KNOW him. That he is mine.🙂 And what a journey it has been to get to this point! I started going to East Shore Baptist Church. In August 2008, but didn’t become active until January 2009. I met a woman named Amy, who was fun and kinda crazy (just like me! 8230;...

Random thoughts and reflections on life, love, and Jesus…. April 30, 2010. Thoughts of Haiti…. I so wish that I could take more/do more…. What could have caused this young child to be so afraid of what she looks like? Sigh…such a contrast to what I am about to encounter, and yet both break my heart…. Please pray for safe travels, for the health of our team…but more importantly, pray that the Lord will present us with challenging opportunities, and that He will stretch us and make us uncomfortable!

One Month Later… | Pondering...
https://lesaclose.wordpress.com/2010/06/05/one-month-later
Random thoughts and reflections on life, love, and Jesus…. June 5, 2010. One Month Later…. Five days after I returned home from Haiti, I left for São Paulo (Brazil). I knew that it wouldn’t be enough time to process anything, and I pushed Haiti to the back of my brain so that I could fully engage in our mission while in Brazil. And it worked. When I returned, I spoke at church. On both mission trips, and had to refresh my memory as to what had happened in Haiti! My Walk With God. God is Awesome…. You are...

Random thoughts and reflections on life, love, and Jesus…. November 3, 2009. God is at Work…. I am constantly in awe of how God works in our lives…and how He is working in mine during this time of unemployment. This morning, I had a phone interview, and it went very well! I had lunch with my friend’s mom afterward, and while we were at lunch, the women who had conducted the phone interview walked in! During the past two months that I have been unemployed, I have watched God provide for my every need!

Random thoughts and reflections on life, love, and Jesus…. May 11, 2010. Greater Things Have Yet To Come: Haiti (part one). As I sit down to blog about my Haiti experience, I am still not sure exactly what to say or how to say it. I will break this up so that it’s not an overwhelming blog.🙂.
