Without realizing it, the Lord has been stripping me of baggage I have
been holding on to. We start training camp this week, and I know my
world is going to begin to total transform in ways I cannot even
imagine. I pray the Lord sweeps me off my feet and I find this new
found love in my Savior. The only way that can happen in by being
stripped of those things that have been holding me back . As he tears
it away, there is certainly hurt there, but now I can see that there is
so much good to that hurting, that there are glorious things the Lord
wants to do with me that he couldn’t do with all of that junk on me.
There is no doubt in my mind the Lord has mighty things planned for
each new day. Not just for me and my group going on this trip, but for
each of you, each individual. He has an ornate plan that goes farther
than waking up each morning, getting the kids off to school and heading
to work. No, he has a plan and a purpose for each of us, and he will
use you in this mission field he has placed you in if you allow him to.
May the Lord strip me until I am nothing but a new creation in him.
