Katie invites you on a journey of radical love down the red dirt roads of Uganda. You'll laugh, cry and stop dead in your tracks with Katie as she follows Jesus into the impossible and finds joy and beauty beneath the dust.
Below are a few of my favorite quotes from Kisses from Katie
“individuals are extremely important; every life matters.”
“…they (people who want to make a difference) don’t do anything to call attention to themselves, they simply pay attention to the everyday needs of others, even if it’s only one person…”
“…wants more than anything to obey God and say yes to whatever He asks of me…”
“…ordinary people who love an extraordinary God…”
"I will not change the world.“I Jesus will do that. I can, however, let Him use me to change the world for one person.”
“…I am more more terrified of living a comfortable life in a self-serving society and failing to follow Jesus than I am of any illness or tragedy.”
“I , as a person who grew up wealthy, put value in things. These children, having no things, put value in God.”
“They rejoiced in what the Lord had given them…”
“Share…without holding back, giving our all and believing that the Lord will provide more as needed...
“God did not make too many people and not enough resources to go around. Because we are living in His world, there HAS to be a solution.” (to poverty, hunger, thirst)
“Poverty is not a sin; it is a condition, a circumstance that allows God’s work to be displayed.”
“…care for those around you out of an overflow of love for Christ and the love that He has lavished upon you.”
“adoption is His heart.”
“When we stop to be kind when we don’t want to, that’s when the sacrifice becomes most rewarding.”
“If being a new mother taught me anything, it was just how inadequate I am and just how dependent I am on my father to give me strength and grace for each day.” (amen.)
“…a desire to be more, to be better, to be close to the One who made us…”
“I made peace with feeling inadequate because the Truth is, I was. I still am…”
“…147 million orphaned children in the world to each have a mommy who knows what they like for dinner.” (one of her prayers/desires)
“following God is an education of its own.”
“Obey and be faithful to only what He has asked of me, even when tangible earthly results or successes are not seen.”
“Often in an unideal situation, there is not an ideal solution this side of heaven.”
“As I do what I can, I am able to watch Him do what only He can.”
“I am not brave. I just believe in a God who will use me even though I am not.”
“Lord, may we choose you every moment of every day.”
