It has been incredible to get prepared for my trip coming up in just a few weeks!!!
In the past few months, I have gotten to see the Lord’s provision in a whole new way. I have seen him provide my financial needs… I AM FULLY FUNDED!! PRAISE GOD!! I have experienced his provision of my emotional and mental needs: He is silencing my fears and increasing my faith and excitement for the power of the Gospel. He is providing for me physically: I am walking in his strength and endurance and learning how to do so at times that feel hopeless.
Recently, I have been incredibly humbled by my own experiences. I am blown away by the Lord’s gifting to me. I did not earn the right to know Him, or teach others about Him, or travel abroad with His name at the forefront.
I am also incredibly humbled by my consistent habit to choose me over Him. I choose me everyday. Yet, still He chooses me. Every. Day. How? Why? These are things I may never understand. But I pray that I am continuously humbled by them. I pray it never becomes mundane. I pray that the Lord continues to bloom in me an attitude and posture of gratefulness. I pray the same for you.
As the date of my team’s departure to Thailand approaches, I pray that the same rings true for this new experience. That I would be humbled by it, that I would share it, that I would be used because of it, and above all that the Gospel would be famous by it.
I do have fears and concerns about the coming month. Though this trip will be fruitful, I am human. In this truth, I would greatly appreciate your prayers for my physical body: for health, endurance, and rest; For my mind: peace, faith, and awareness of the Father; And for my spirit: for humility, joy, and again rest.
Thank you all for being a great part of this season. I am overwhelmed.
