I knew moving to the other side of the country to help with a church plant would not be an easy journey, but the best things in life don't come easy. I just didn't know it would stretch me this much... and I have yet to begin! I'm not sure how I'm going to get my bills paid over the next several months and I do NOT want to go into debt. One thing I have learned is that when things seem impossible, God does his greatest work and he is most glorified! I'm just excited to see God move and provide! I will admit, I have gotten pretty stressed out about bills lately, but when I really sit down and think about it, I calm down and a peace that trancends understanding floods over my mind. I know I'm called to work with students in Fernley, NV. I know I'm following God's voice. The Lord will take care of me. He will provide. He won't abandon me as an orphan. I've been clinging to that verse, John 14:18, "I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you."
God doesn't have to prove himself to me...I've already seen firsthand over and over his unfailing faithfulness to his children. I'm actually a little excited that things don't make sense right now... I'm not sure how I'm going to provide for myself, get my bills paid, find another part-time job, make friends, etc. because that gives God SO much room to work in my life and pour out his blessings! What an awesome testimony to others of God's faithfulness. :)
Keep me in your prayers. Keep God's plan for the community of Fernley in your prayers! God's Spirit is moving! Pray that my family and I are sensitive to his spirit and his leading!
"Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God; trust also in me." -Jesus
