i have been feeling not OVER overwhelmed, but still troubled at the coming decisions i’m going to have to make as far as my pets and apartment. i won’t need to make a firm decision about my apartment and its contents until june, but the looming decisions are threatening and there doesn’t seem to be a clear solution. i pray for discernment!! also, i have this dog…who is kind of my heart outside my body. “my little hairy child” i call her. she’s got these googly eyes and ever-present puppy smell and the very thought of leaving her for a year is painful. BUT i am confident the Lord wants me to go on this World Race. He will provide, yeah? He has set this plan before me and will see to its accomplishment, yeah? yeah. THANK GOD for verses like Jeremiah 29:11-12 that remind me that even when decisions and situations look stressful, He has a perfect resolution to it all.
“For I know the plans I have for you,
declares the Lord,
plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.
Then you will call upon me and and come and pray to me, and I will hear you.”
Oh! And this:
