The Joy of the Lord is My Strength

This is now my new life verse. I cant recall how long I have been attacked by lies, but I can honestly say I HAVE BEEN SET FREE! I AM FREE BY THE BLOOD OF THE LAMB and there is nothing that can stand in the way of me getting to my Savior. I truly believe this now and know of Gods faithfulness when He says He has more for my life. Im sure you all want to hear the story of how this came to happen, so heres just a little bit of it. Throughout the trip, I have battling lies of worth and acceptance, but when we hit Florida and Nueva York at the end of June or beginning of July, God was speaking truth saying—despite hardships and trials, I can still live in His truth and declare truth that I am His. However, I would declare truth and the harder I felt attacked. But honestly I will be able to stand in front of you and tell you that Satan has no power over me, because I am a child of God and he cant take that anyway from me. The more truth God reveals, the more joy I find and the more I am able to share with the nation of Peru. I know this isnt a crazy sweet story of God healing people (even though, those are real and will definitely be sharing those with you), but it is of God healing me and my heart. Instead of that despair and pain, I now have peace and joy and am starting to embrace love more than before. I have so much to share with you all once I get home, but be expecting God to prove Himself real with the crazy things I will be able to testify to. I love you all and look forward to seeing you when I come home. As I mentioned before, this is definitely where God is calling me to as I love these people and can relate to their simplistic lifestyles. Love you and I will definitely talk to you soon, Rachel
