Ending and Beginning

I am happy
to announce we have made it to Thailand, with only a two hour plane ride and
one hour time change (back). 

While I was
on the plane I was reflecting about Malaysia; our purpose there, what God did
and how we changed as a team and individuals. I want to share a bit about how I
was changed over the month. As I mentioned before I received a new boldness and
confidence.  I am stepping out in who God
created me to be, speaking in boldness the truth, being vulnerable with my
testimony and learning the beautiful things God has uniquely created in me.  I am a person who was born to laugh and am
learning to bring this joy and laughter to the nations.  Whatever God has gifted me with and given me
I need to freely give as I have freely received (Matt 10:8). I have no right to
hold back the truth, joy and freedom of Christ.  

God started
to speak to me about the struggles I had when I was younger, which are nothing
huge but things I have not thought about in years. He brought me back to a
scripture my youth pastor gave me when I was younger-“Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the
desires of your heart“ Psalm 37:4. He showed me the reason
why I was given this scripture, and how the more I delighted in Him, my desires
turned into His. Over years of pursuing the Lord and His goodness, I just stand
in COMPLETE amazement and awe of His goodness, kindness and love to His
children. God has saved me from so much.

On another
note, while on the plane I was wondering-when does flying ever seem normal? I mean
we are into our fifth month now, another country, another flight, another time
change, and it never really phased me. I was excited do not get me wrong, I
just know this is the way it is suppose to be. I love when you are at peace,
because you know without a shadow of a doubt where you are is where you are
suppose to be.

“There is
not wisdom, no insight, no plan that can succeed against the Lord“ Proverb 21:30
