these hands

hey friends! 

we’re on month two of life in Guatemala and it’s been so so sweet. we are walking on the Lords promise & it’s been so fulfilling to grow in intimacy with Him. 

this morning I read Psalm 16 that says “You make known to me the path of life; in your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasure forevermore.” Learning  and living out the fact a lot recently that I can’t experience the fullness of joy unless I am as close to the Father as His right hand. ¡Amen y Amen!

one of my favorite parts of being in Guatemala has been working with worship room which is a ministry that pushes to “share Gods love through worship” but also comes with a great group of people that are easy to love.  my team has had the opportunity to do ministry with them on tuesday  and also go to their worship nights on thursday , last thursday’s worship night led into praying healing over tons of people that were there, my friends and I prayed over these ladies who were both experiencing physical pain. it was a really cool moment to not only embody the healing authority that Jesus gives us but to also restore hope in these women who have woken up with this battle each day for years. later that night my friend Kourtney said to me “ How cool is it that these hands that we used to sinned with we now use to heal and bring praise?” first of all it’s way cool!! & this led into me thinking & just thanking God for the radical redemption He’s brought in my life and allowing my hands to be a testimony of that. 

some thoughts i’ve had…

hands that once shook with fear & anxiety are now being lifted as a physical representation of reverence. 

hands that I once allowed to dishonor now are praying healing & redemption over the people who are walking through what I used to. 

hands that couldn’t have been so opened to the truth without feeling the weight of the worlds lies. 

today and for a long time i’m grateful for a God that brings revelation & glory through something as small as hands. 

luv u 

kayla
