Eugene

It's becoming more and more real that my God is leading me towards Eugene. And I cry sometimes about the people that I am leaving here in Indy who I really love and consider authentic family. So in the midst of feeling like it's going to be hard God blesses me with a verse to just hold on to. It's in Isaiah 62: 12. "They will be called the Holy People, the Redeemed of the Lord, and you will be called Sought After, the City No Longer Deserted." It makes me realize God is doing so much in my heart to prepare me. That I no historically that verse is not about Eugene, but I really felt like I want to authentically experience that there in Eugene. It's a city that has 96% of people that are unchurched in the whole entire city. And my heart longs to see that Eugene is Sought After, the City No Longer Deserted. Even though I know I am leaving behind people I love dearly, I know they will always be my family, and that ultimately God is doing some really cool stuff in our world.

Today in church I looked around and thought about how beautiful it was to see so many people love Jesus sitting in one room. And I pray that people allow God to move them where He wants them. Wow...God's doing great things in Indy and I can see that with people that I meet and know personally. I pray for Him to continue to move here in a place that desperately needs Him.

And please pray for Eugene. It's a city where people need to be loved and cared for. God will do the rest. Amen!
