We were asked to write a blog about how we felt before leaving on this

mission trip.  Here is what I’m expecting…

 

    

I am feeling very enthusiastic about leaving for this mission trip
and more as the day approaches.  I feel encouraged,compelled, backed, rescued by God’s plan for my life.

 
I am expecting to loose my life for the sake of Jesus and the
gospel so that I can find a new life.  Mark 8:35.
 
I am expecting to face hardship and trials and overcome them.
 
I am expecting to be God’s mouthpiece and speak in other
 
languages that I have never known or heard by yielding to God’s Spirit.
 
I am expecting to comfort the brokenhearted.
 
I am expecting to hear from God with greater clarity than ever before.
 
I am expecting to mature in followship, leadership, and social skills.
 
I am expecting to know God’s plan and purpose for me and to be fulfilled in living it out with Him.

I am expecting to rely on God in different areas than before and have more of His Word revealed to me.

 
I am expecting freedom in Christ!
