"The place where God Calls you to is the place where your deep gladness and the world's deep hunger meet."
-Frederick Buechner
"I want to set the world on fire, 'til it's burning bright for You"
It brings me joy to see those who are in need of a Savior, light up inside when they realize who He is. I love being able to travel and give to those in need. And I love how God works out His plans by weaving your dreams and desires together with His.
With the Belize trip coming up I am in retrospect of past mission trips and of my life and how God has been working. Somehow, I managed to join this team for Belize. My plans long ago for this summer had been to go to Sierra Leone with a team that I would help create. Until recently, I didn't even realize that and I know that, even though I had my own plans, God had something else in store; something BIG. I have great expectations for this trip and I am excited for the days ahead.
Through it all, I just want to see His will done.
Lord, "Can I be the one You use?"
Can You show me where to go? Lord, lead me.
"Where You go, I go... what You say, I say...Lord, what You pray, I pray."
I must remember Jesus and do as He did.
“So Jesus said to them, ‘When you have lifted up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am he, and that I do nothing on my own authority, but speak just as the Father taught me. And he who sent me is with me. He has not left me alone, for I always do the things that are pleasing to him.’” -John 8:28-29
He relied upon the Father. Father, lead me in everything that I do.
"I am weak, you are strong enough to..."
Take my dreams to show the world the needy through a lens and my dreams to write songs for you; and use them.
Lord, let me be the one You use...
