As I am writing this I am currently sitting in our hotel room awaiting 2am to get up and goto the airport for our 7am flight! As many of you read this we will be in COLOMBIA PURSUING GODS KINGDOM!! Praise His wonderful name!!! It is amazing to see the Lord affirm His calling through provision from many of you all! From the bottom of our hearts THANK YOU- whether it was encouragement, financial or prayer it has not gone unseen- We pray a special blessing over each of you, that the Lord show you in His perfect timing and in a way that is UNDENYABLE!!! Look out for it cause its coming!!
With that I want to dedicate this post to some extremely important people to me and Faith and that is our parents! We are extremely blessed for both sets of our parents and the love, example, provision, hospitality, time and service they have shown us. I want to give a shout out to my wonderful in laws who are incredible examples of Gods love, grace, calling and provision. They are blessings in their reflection of the Gospel- Thank you Leeann and Brian!
I want to now shed light on the blessings I have in my mom and dad. They have been a constant blessing whether I acknowledge it at times or not. They have been so patient with me through my life, my mistakes and my accomplishments. They have always been some of my biggest supporters and providers- and I cannot say enough how much of a blessing they have been and how thankful I am to have them. My mom, a beautiful loving woman inside and out. She is one of the most selfless individuals I know. I love how she pushes me to the Lord as she seeks Him daily on her own. She loves without question and serves without expecting anything in return. I love her so much and am blessed to be her son! My dad, the most hardworking man I know. He takes the role of provider to another level. He is smart and is truly a man who cares for his family in ways that are not dependent on recognition. He has OWNED the role of providing for his family. He is a giver, provider, blessing, and a wonderful representation of an earthly father! I thank my heavenly Father for such an incredible man who has done his best in raising me and continues to provide. I am blessed to see his caring heart come out and to hear and see of times where my dad has given to those in need and to love in ways others may not. I am very VERY proud of my dad. Thank you so much mom and dad for yalls unconditional love, hospitality, provision, and patience with me. Thank you for all your guidance and how yall represent what a earthly mother and father should look like. Thank you for pushing me to Jesus. Me and Faith love you all very much and are so thankful for how you love us. I have been so encouraged by both of you all and the growth and trust you have in God as you son and now daughter answer the call God has put on our hearts. I know its not easy to let a child go- BUT IF ANYONE KNOWS WHAT IT IS TO GIVE UP A CHILD, ITS GOD- who gave His Son Jesus to die for all of us!!!Praise Him and continue to look to Him! I love you all so much and we cannot wait to see how the Lord continues to teach you all while were gone! WE WILL SEE YOU ALL IN AUGUST 😉 (Also….Dad- heres you shoutout you were wanting 😉 hahah
As always thank you all for taking the time to read, I know this a bit different in nature but in ways its not- this is us recognizing a blessing from our Lord and desiring to bring Him glory in remembering how good God is!
ITS ABOUT TO GET REAL- NEXT TIME WE POST WE WILL BE IN COLOMBIA- We ask that RIGHT NOW….yes RIGHT NOW! PRAY- pray for us to be open, attentive and most importantly OBEDIENT to the Spirits leading! We cannot wait to share with you all what all the Lord is GOING to do! Much love,
Austin
