"It is inbred in us that we have to do exceptional things for God; but we have not. We have to be exceptional in the ordinary things, to be holy in mean streets among mean people, and this is not learned in five minutes."
Oswald Chambers
"Strength is for service, not status."
Romans 15:1-2
The realization of what I am undertaking has not hit yet, but I don't worry. I have the God of the Universe on my side; why should I fret. I'm not amazing or extraordinary in what I am doing...I am just following His lead. He always makes a way in the unknown. He always takes ordinary people and does amazing things. I am so excited about seeing Him move, touch lives, and forever change the course of one person's destiny. My only prayer is that, somehow, He will use me. If I am willing, I know He can. And I am willing. God, this journey lies in Your wonderful hands. Together, here goes!
Hey Heather! I hope your flight went well, I'm looking forward to seeing more updates about your trip!
ReplyDeleteHeather - I found you off Mike's post (Mike and Candice and I grew up in youth group together in CO).
ReplyDeleteAnyway - great testimony and excited for the new horizons you are pursuing. We are at our best when we have to have complete dependence on God, God's Kingdom and mission are an amazing adventure of trust and obedience.
Heather, you are perpetually in Annamarie's and my prayers - we are very proud of you and realize that like Samuel, whose mother consecrated him for the Lord's purpose/call, you have come through many things and we continue to commit all things unto Him for the calling and keeping He will alone will sustain through you - to God be the Glory!
