Katie Davis Majors is an American missionary and a self-described “lover of Jesus.” In December of 2006, Katie traveled to Uganda for the first time, as an 18-year-old. Less than a year later, she returned to Uganda and in 2008, she founded Amazima Ministries. The word “Amazima” means “truth” in the Luganda language.1

Katie is also the author of several books. The following words are taken from her first book, Kisses from Katie: A Story of Relentless Love and Redemption. I picked up this book years ago in an airport, shortly after it was published. Her words have stayed with me:

“The big God of small details loves each one of us so intimately, created each of us in His image. Each one of us is cherished. How would life change if we thought of each other as such? If each person who approached us we treated as beloved of God, cherished by God, one of God’s favorite people? The God of the universe delights in you. In me. In them. Could we rest in that? Could we love like that? 2” – Katie Davis Majors

How might we live, if we loved and trusted like this?
