Proverbs 16:9 says , “in their hearts humans plan their course, but the Lord establishes their steps”.
“Keep planting and sowing, learning and growing. Beautiful things take time.”
My constant prayer is that God’s will be done in my life. Whatever I do I want it to glorify God. The one that created me, taught me how to love and what love is, the one that molded me to live in the image of him, the one that blessed me with gifts to use in His name. I knew that my trip in August was where the Lord wanted me. I had so much clarity. Everything was put perfectly into place, friendships with my teammates began to flourish, and the excitement was finally setting in! Prayers were being answered and I was so beyond blessed with my fundraising process. But sometimes plans don’t always go how you want them too. Sadly, due to COVID I will not be leaving in August. As sad as I am that I will not be able to meet my teammates in person and share the love of Jesus with those around me in Guatemala, Honduras, and Nicaragua. I know that God works for the good. Gods plans are changing for me and I am learning that its okay. He has something bigger set in place for me. I am choosing to not look at this as a setback but be thankful for the forever friendships I made with my team and the blessing that each one of them have been to me. I am thankful for a God that has taught me that my strength is in His name and that this is not a set back but a set up for something bigger and greater that he has in his plan for me. His will for my life. I am excited to see how God uses these next couple weeks to teach me even more about Him as He leads me in a different direction. I am learning that Gods timing grows our faith as we are called to wait and trust in Him.
I want to thank each one of you for the constant prayers and words of encouragement and I continue to thank you!!
Prayer Request: by July 15 I will need to make a decision on where to go next. I ask for prayers that God gives me clarity and peace and that I can follow exactly where He wants me to be.
