Dear Madison,
Through out the day I find my self daydreaming about this next year. I think of where we will be, and what possible ministries we will be privileged to help out in. I even check the weather for each country. I am beyond excited and am in great anticipation of the year to come.
But I have found that I am worried. I have worries about our future after the trip, I have financial worries, and I have a number of worries about the trip itself.
But my greatest inspiration has been you. In the past I would have described myself as carefree and at times irresponsible and you would have been more worried about life’s demands. Over the course of the last year I have watched as you have read your Bible daily. Madison you are changing into a strong woman of God. I have enjoyed watching you pray continuously, rejoices in life victories and carefully discerns life’s difficulties. Over the course of the last three years I have studied the Bible in class, looked deeply into historical theology and systematic philosophies and thought and have even studied different evangelical techniques towards different religions. Yet, I am amazed at how you are learning more of what it means to know God and growing into a woman who is worthy to be praised.
As we were standing next to each other in church and I had my arm around your shoulders I got shivers as you sang “King Jesus You’re the name we’re lifting high
Your glory shaking up the earth and skies” There is no doubt that you know who Jesus is. My greatest blessing in life is that you know Jesus. I have had the privilege of watching your life blossom, as your grow closer to the Lord.
The nations will be glad to know you because you know King Jesus.
I love you
