Blood Mountain!!



This past Saturday a group of us from the office in Gainesville, decided we would hike blood mountain.  I was thinking it would be a leisurely stroll, I was mistaken.  It ended up being 2.2 miles straight up.  My legs have not burned like that since 2 a days football practice back in high school.  But once we got to the top it was all worth it, to be able to stare off into God's beautiful creation.  We talked about as we were soaking it all in, how can anyone see this and not believe there is a God.
Sunday morning I drove back to Chattanooga to catch the last message in the series called Together at Ethos.  Shannon poured out his heart that we are called to be dreamers, at the end of the service everyone lit candles to symbolize that we were in this together, it was a very moving moment.
Last night I spoke for the second week in a row at NuNation the youth group at City Church, I finished up a series called I Heart God, it has been a really great series to be part of.  At the end of my message called Compelled by Love to Love, I challenged the students to do something not just realize that God loves them, but Be the change.  They responded by coming forward and we had the opportunity to pray for them.  
God is so amazing, and I am blown away that he allows me to part of what he is doing.
