Introduction to my new adventure!

Hi, my name is Israel.  I am twelve years old and have three older brothers and two AMAZING parents.  I love God most though sometimes I struggle to surrender my whole life.  I'm passionate about adventure, entrepreneurship, helping others, my character, and mostly God. I love people the most in the world.  I usually make all of the party planning and I'm the motivator in my home.  I love going on adventures with my family.  My dream job is to be a firefighter.  I want to make a difference in this world.  I want people to know that God loves them so much that He sent His only son to die on the cross and forgave our sins.


My best adventure I've ever gone on with my family!

This is me in Germany, our home for five years.
                                                              

Me and my fun and Super Cool brothers!

Another favorite adventure in Africa loving people!
On one of my adventures in the African Orphanage.



In the bush with my new African friends!


"For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, of love and of self-discipline."
-- 2 Timothy 1:7
 
 I believe this is what God is telling me, "This is how you can make a difference in the world, Israel, if you choose to love people as I did and to have self-discipline in hard moments."
 
 I hope that you are encouraged through this blog... that you find courage to live out what God is calling you to do.
