Airport Thoughts

Sitting here at 5:30 in the morning isn't ideal. But, knowing what this week holds for Jonah and I makes it all worth it! When you're in a airport with no one to talk to, there's a lot of time to think, and my mind keeps going to one thing. "Wow. I'm so glad I followed God where he asked me to go." How different would my life be? These last months of engagement and ministry have been accompanied by blessing after blessing. From Jonah's new job, to a new church family, funding for school tuitions and our ministry, souls being saved, let's just say God hasn't let us down. It is hard and busy and a lot to handle at times. If I didn't have the Lord guiding me every step of the way I would be an absolute mess. He gives me such peace in everything I do. There's nothing like it and I can't imagine living life any other way. I say all this to say- ask God what steps he wants you to take next. Then do it. Don't shut him out of your life because you like where you are. I liked where I was too, and where I thought I was going and I guarantee you this life is a million times better. Yes, I'm happy, but I get to serve my Lord daily! It brings me so much joy! I want this for you all too. It hurts to see you hurting and struggling to make it day by day. Don't get me wrong there are bad days, but knowing I have a Savior to call on lets me know I can do it, whatever "it" may be that day. 
Things you can pray for: new students, our new student leaders, funding for school tuitions, mine and Jonah's wedding and marriage, Jonah's job, health and safety for our families in Mexico, and always that we seek the Lord's will in everything we do!
