Peace in His will


"Are you nervous or scared at all about what you are about to do?"

I get this question from a lot of people. I have to honestly answer that I am thrilled to death and excited beyond belief, but fear and anxiety are not apart of those emotions.

God has me going exactly where He wants me. He has guided me through this whole process and has lead me to be precisely where I should be. When you are where God wants you to be, there is no fear. There is no anxiety of what you are doing, because you know that He is making a way. He is in everything you do.

I know that He will protect me and work through me. I am excited to see the work He will do through me, and humbled that He has chosen me to do this work.

The one thing that I have been most anxious about is raising support. He TOTALLY blew me away with that. I have just a few hundred dollars left to reach my initial $10,000! I want to raise a little more than that to help off set some costs of starting my life in a new country. God has knocked out that giant. So thank you to those of you who have given support in SO many ways! For those of you still praying about it, now is the time to give! He will bless you beyond anything you could imagine. You will have had a hand in furthering His kingdom for HIS glory! How awesome is that?!

So keep praying for me as I wrap up my time here in the States. I am currently at home spending time with family. I am leaving tomorrow to visit a dear friend in North Carolina. I'll be there almost a week, then coming back home for more time with those I love, and will miss greatly over the next year. Pray that God will use this time to push me into the coming weeks.

I leave for California and training July 17. That is 6 weeks from now. :) Thank you for all the support and prayers!

  1. I get that same question... and I think I have about the same feeling about it. I mean there are things that I wonder how they will go-like getting along and not knowing the language. But I'm definitely not scared, afraid, anxious, or anything like that!
