I wanted to write a short note to let you know how my heart has, absolutely, melted in the presence of the Lord, the Holy Spirit, and those within, both at the cell group and this morning. I wanted to give reason to my great escape at the end of each, a need to let the emotions and tears flow, both of which have been restricted. My past leaves little to be desired except to be used for His glory and so I am at an absolute loss as to how to express what takes place in my heart and spirit after being with all of you. I just wanted you to know how deeply moved and blessed we feel since I stepped out of fear and into Touch of Fire.

I just wanted to thank you for being obedient and preaching the message God gave you on Saturday. It really blessed me. I know that I was so focused last semester on reaching other people and trying to see opportunities that I missed out on a lot of great things that God could have done within me. I have learned that a lot in the last week or two, so when you shared that message, it just confirmed to me once again that I need to put more of my time, focus, and energy into my personal, intimate relationship with the Lover of my soul. Touch of Fire has been such an enormous blessing to me in my time here at Ball State. I know God has brought me to this time and place for a reason, and although I may not see it yet, I am determined for God's best to come forth in my life. I am so excited for Honduras! I know God is going to do things in and through me to confirm what I have felt before and to increase my dreams (so He can do exceedingly more than those dreams). I am beginning to feel as though I have both passion and purpose for the first time in my life, and I am determined to seek the face of God this semester so that I will be strengthened and prepared to reach the nations of this world. I hope you have a Jesus-filled day because I know I am!
