The Dream I Am Working On

 
 Remember when I wrote the dream of going to Africa someday?
I wrote about it HERE in January 2013
And again HERE April 2013

I didnt know who I was going with
Where I was going
Or how I would pay for it

It hasnt been without ups and downs
Plans not going the way I thought
My sister ended up pregnant and cant come
but now my mom is coming and I get another nephew!
Costs were more than we expected
But God found a way to help pay for Africa and more!

And I will tell you....
It has turned out just the way it is supposed to
And better than I imagined
Ephesians 3:20

There will be five women their five daughters going
My mom had everyone over for a dinner to dream more, pray more and attempt to plan
How do you prepare your heart you know will be completely wrecked?
How do you prepare when you know your worldviews will be turned upside down?
How do you prepare for something that is nothing you ever experienced?
You dont
You let God guide you, protect you and transform you
The way He wants

More details to come!

"Therefore GO and make disciples of all nations,
baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you.
And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
Matthew 28:19


 
 
 
 

 
"I planted the seed, Apollos watered the plants, but God made you grow.
It’s not the one who plants or the one who waters who is at the center of this process
but God, who makes things grow."
1 Cor. 3:6

 
 

 
Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight
Proverbs 3:5-6
