Hey, long time no see! Since the last time we talked, I have lived in Guatemala for several months, doing some AWESOME ministry. I also spent a week serving at a Young Life camp and another week in Gainesville doing evangelism. After a final debrief, SURPRISE, I finally made it back to the great state of OKLAHOMA!!!! There is so much to say about my time in the field, and I honestly am still not fully sure how ...

My Beloved.    Ephesians 1:5-6    “For it was always in His perfect plan to adopt us as his delightful children, through our union with Jesus, the Anointed One, so that his tremendous love that cascades over us would glorify his grace for the same love he has for Beloved, Jesus, he has for us. And this unfolding plan brings him great pleasure!”  Its always been so hard for me to grasp the reality that ...

The Lord is so evident at training camp and it has been so cool to experience the Lord in a fresh way these past few weeks! Experiencing the Lord differently can be extremely exciting but also kind of intimidating. We’ve seen healings and restoration all throughout our campus here in Georgia and its so beautiful to see the Holy Spirit move through his children.

“So why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies in the field, how they grow; they neither toil nor spin” Matthew 6:28   This is one of my favorite verses, it has been for a long time. Maybe it’s because I work at a flower shop and am constantly surrounded by the beauty of flowers… but more than likely, it’s because it’s comforting. It’s comforting to know the Creator of the universe is taking care of m...

Where is your treasure?   Matthew 6:19-21 “Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal; but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.”   A few nights ago I was reading Matthew 6 and it really got me ...

You may be asking “Lex, why would you choose to do a gap year? And what are you expecting to get out of this?”    My response to this would have to be my Heavenly Father. He has called me to trust in him day by day.    I thought I would be like most people and go to college right after highschool, have a roommate, create a new me , major in business, and join a bunch of clubs. I was eager! Once being acce...
