I can’t believe I’ve already been here for 3 weeks and I’ve been away from home for a month! Wow, time is flying and it’s insane! It makes me even more aware that I need to take hold of every moment God is giving me because it will soon pass away. However, that is proving to be a huge challenge for me….
This week I was faced with a lot of worry and concern as my mom was going to the doctor. She’s had many health challenges in the past 5 or so years and has gone through 2 brain surgeries already…she had a doctors appointment concerning some symptoms that have returned, scheduled for Wednesday. Thankfully I’m surrounded by a wonderful community here and we all came together to pray over my mom and her appointment….it was so powerful to see the body of Christ come together and to feel God’s love through that. God really put my heart and mind at rest about that situation. I know that God has a perfect plan and that He is in the midst of my mom, taking care of her better than I could ever do.
Another thing I was struggling with this week was trying to plan. That’s always been a struggle as long as I can remember, just wanting to know what will be next and what I’m supposed to do…however, God is constantly teaching me how to trust in Him and listen carefully to His direction. I know that God has a perfect plan for me and when I completely trust in Him everything will just be better.
Over all, I’m having an amazing time in India working with the women in Rahabs Rope and continuing to develope close relationships with them all…I’m so happy and thankful for every day that I am blessed enough to be here ministering to these people.
