Send Me

My God has tugged on my heart to go. There is a group of people in Africa that have never heard of Jesus....and I desire to follow where God has prompted me to go.  I am out of my comfort zone....I unsure of myself and I know ALL of my weaknesses.  There are a million reasons I could give myself to talk myself out of going.  And yet, there is one reason TO go....the only reason that matters - I will go because I love my Lord above anything else and anyone else, and He is asking me to be available to go.

Could He accomplish His goal without me?  Of course!!  Do I want to miss out on the blessing of being used by God Almighty?  Absolutely NOT!!!  I am going because I know God is wanting to send me, but also because it brings my heart joy to go - to share the gospel with those who have not yet heard of His saving grace!!!

I have much to do to be prepared to go - spiritually, emotionally, physically. But, I also have much to do to prepare my household so that it is a low stress time for my hubby while I am away (or at least as low stress as possible!!).  I have already seen God answer prayers concerning this mission trip...and I'm excited to see Him continue to answer prayers and move hearts!! 

I covet all your prayers - not just for myself, the mission trip, and the people we will be ministering to...but also for my kiddos and husband, for amazing strength and patience for my husband (it is so hard to fly solo with 3 little ones) and for amazing ability to listen, obey, and get along for my kiddos.

"For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking but of righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. Whoever thus serves Christ is acceptable to God and approved by men. So then let us pursue what makes for peace and for mutual upbuilding."  ~ Romans 14:17-19
