Believe… That was the word I got for the year 2012. Sitting on my bed in an orphanage in Mozambique, thanking God for this past year, and praying for the next. I got the word Believe. And it came to me as a letter from God…
Christin, my daughter, my own,
Believe. Believe in ME. Believe in my Word and in my promises that are true. Believe that I have greatness not only in store for your squad, but also for YOU! Believe that I am taking you to greater heights and depths in me. Believe that I am doing a mighty work in you and through you. Believe that I have called you by name, that I call you my own, and that you are mine. Believe in me and my faithfulness and that I will come through. Believe and know that I hear the desires of your heart, your dreams, your hopes, and that I will make them come true. Believe that I am with you, that I have equipped you, and will speak to you and through you. Believe in me and who I say I am. Believe that I have greatness in store for you. Believe that I LOVE YOU. Believe that I BELIEVE IN YOU. I know you believe in me…
So I walk into this next year with great expectation, with great hope, and with great faith. I walk into this year with great confidence that God is with me and that He has called and equipped me.
I’m not quite sure where the time has gone, but I am now in month 5 in the beautiful country of Swaziland. I am continually amazed and humbled that this is my life!
I have fallen in love all over again with my squad after our month 4 debrief. I am constantly amazed by these incredible men and women that I get to serve alongside with and the way that our squad has become a family.
So once again year 2012… Here We Go!
