For over a year and a half now there has been non stop talk
and dreaming taking place in all my conversations about Kenya. What God is
doing in Kenya, what He will do in Kenya, why I am going to Kenya, how I got
called to Kenya… You get the picture.
But what happens when I have a day without Kenya?
A day without Kenya is pure. A day with out Kenya is still.
A day without Kenya ignites passion. A day without Kenya digs up joy.
You see, God’s given me a gift in postponing my trip to
Kenya. God has given me the opportunity to take a deep breath, stop running
around like a crazy person, and time to just be with Him. Truth is, as I sit
with Him more and more, the more settled my spirit is. The more I realize that
it is in the quiet places that the overflowing of my identity fills my heart. The more I am still the more He gives me
words and new direction.
So as my time here in Gainesville, GA continues God never
hesitates to affirm and remind me of the things His heart breaks for and the
word He has given me for my time in Kenya coming up. I am called to serve Him,
to serve the team, and to serve the camps. Service seems to be the new word and
I’m falling in love with a refreshed outlook on service and honor.
But until then, I will be right here. I will be right here
where God has me. I will be right here where God has me in the quiet places.
