So many wonderful things have happened since my last update. God has really been at work in my life. Today I wanted to share a song that is very near and dear to my heart. This video is from over a year ago while still living in Houston, but I am excited to be sharing it with the first service at my new church next Sunday. This song has such strong words of encouragement and a reminder that we are to follow HIM.
It has been two months since my life completely changed. The Lord had began to burden my heart to leave my current job and work with friends who happen to own several businesses. I wanted to follow God, but I was torn as to what to do and how God was going to work it out. So many times I have stepped out in faith and questioned if I had really done what God wanted me to do, only to realize years later that it was God's perfect will. I didn't want to question my decision this time, I wanted God to do the working. Needless to say, two days later I got a call that my company needed to remove my position and they had to lay me off. They were surprised how calm I was about it all. You see, God made the way, so there was no denying that He was in this. A few weeks later I began working with my friends by assisting with their book keeping. Because my work is still flexible it has allowed me to travel this summer and find ways to serve. This opportunity will open up so many doors to learn more than I could ever imagine. Everything that I am learning will be vital as my ministry grows, and as God opens more doors for me to be back into full time ministry. I do not know what my future holds, but I know God has ordained it. A quick update on current and upcoming events:
I will be getting some updated prayer cards made in the next month or so. If anyone wishes to receive one please don't hesitate to send me a quick message, and I will get one to you. As the song talks about, our gentle Savior is leading us. We don't need to worry or to plan each step, we only need to listen and follow as God directs. I am praying fervently about how and when I can serve in Bastrop/Austin and surrounding areas. I know when the timing is right, the doors will be wide open. I covet your prayers as I continue to seek God's will for the future. I know God has me right where He wants me, it is the greatest place to be.
