One Purpose, One Body, One Love.



Christ's love was shown throughout the entire community today for
Bisons For Christ.
(Yes, I know the plural form of "bison" is bison. Talk to Harding University.)


Smalls groups of students split up and went to their job destinations. Some students were painting houses and some were helping with tornado disaster relief. There were yards to clean, mouths to feed, and Christ to reveal.


I went with a group of girls to cook casseroles for families in need. We made two different types and delivered them afterwards. The recipients were so surprised and touched, and I hope that through us they can see the love of Christ.


Ephesians 4:12 tells us "to prepare God's people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up..."


I truly hope the body of Christ was built up. I know that my own faith was encouraged by the works today. Sometimes I forget that I'm at this amazing Christian school and surrounded by people with giving and pure hearts.


I'm encouraging you all to do something for someone in your community. It's a wonderful way to show Christ to someone who may not know Him. My prayer is that you get inspired. My prayer is that all the students here at Harding (including myself) continue to serve like this long after today.




This song is beautiful. Please listen.


Tomorrow, you get to hear all about my nose piercing last night.
Including pictures.
Get excited!
