If you follow me on Instagram - you'll know that I sometimes post mini-blogs in my captions. It's usually whatever I'm feeling in that moment that is bursting to be shared. They aren't always grammatically correct or theologically researched but they're 100% how I feel in that moment. 

On here, I'll be calling them Insta Diaries and you can find them all under that categorgy! 

You know those moments in your life that absolutely change you? Those moments you will never forget?

I had one of those moments this past weekend. It was a moment that is honestly probably going to end up changing my life.

I was at a conference doing work, taking pictures, running around, trying to engage with the material but really I was just feeling so incredibly out of it and lost. And then God spoke.

He used this stranger all the way from the UK to speak so directly and pointedly to me that I had to listen. And I am. And I’m trying to live in what God was saying because it was good. And there are so many takeaways and so much to be encouraged by but I think what I’m really amazed by more than anything right now is God’s faithfulness in my life as He’s demonstrated through the people He’s put in my life.

I know that I don’t even fully understand how much people love me, because that’s genuinely hard for me, but this past weekend I have just been overwhelmed by the love of those around me. And I know that their love is just the tiniest sample of His love for me.

So if you’re struggling or just feeling unloved - run to Jesus. He will not disappoint you. He will pour out His love so fully that you might be a little overwhelmed that someone could love you that much. But He does.

So join me in living in that. Because as overwhelming and absolutely mind-boggling as it is, it’s far better than to live believing the lie that you are unloved. So come be overwhelmed and shook to your core by how much Jesus loves you! :)
