Yesterday I actually thought "this" is too hard to do. Leaving my son and our eldery parents, family and friends behind...I can't believe I'm doing this!! Am I CRAZY...this hurts too bad! I cried from Dallas to DC and talked with God.
Me: God are you sure you called us to this?
God: Do you trust me?
Me: Well of course I do!
God: Then let my provision take care of what needs to be taken care of...you go and make my name famous.
Me: But this hurts so bad!
God: Yes my sweet child...it does....Did I tell you this would be easy?
Me: Well you didn't say it would feel like this!
God: Sweet child...remember who I am!
So... I decided I would remember who my God is.
I pulled out my kindle that sweet Mark and Mel Presley had given me the night before. In preperation for our long flight I had wiped their account off the Kindle and downloaded mine. All my books and bibles were there, battery charged, ready for travel. But the 1st thing to pop up was a book downloaded by Mark and Mel. Weird...why was that one book still on there and why did it pop up 1st? So I read the preface...and in a way only our God can do I read..."and in saying we will do anything for God meant we would hand Him everything".
ISN'T GOD FUN!!!!!
So I reminded myself how GREAT God is. After only a few minutes of remembering I am able to say.... yes Lord we trust you and we are willing to hand you everything because you are that big and worth much more than even that. Following you isn't easy... you never said it would be. But you've got this!
So through my tears, fears, and sadness I claim victory in the only thing that is worth living and dying for. Jesus Christ!
Yes you have got "this"...
and today's our miracle day cause You're not done with us yet.
