You Invite Us In...8.24.12

So thankful that God invites and take us in. What a blessing it has been to be invited in this first weeks with those leading training, then with the families and missionaries I will be working with. I am so excited for the next few months. 

This morning I was reading Proverbs 16 and was reminded God has a very specific plan and purpose for me coming and on my life. Praying each of you commit your ways to the Lord and completely trust in what God has for you.

"In his heart a man plans his course, but the Lord determines his steps." Proverbs 16:9

God has a plan!

This trip and today have been started with Jeremiah 29:11...
"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future."

It excites me that God has a plan and it will be amazing! 
He doesn't just leave us to work on our own, but has it all under control and know exactly what is to come. Today we have been doing orientation and learning a lot about the countries we will serve in and who we are. It has been a learning experience and very encouraging to be with fellow believers who are going through and experiencing the same things as I am. I am very excited about what the future holds and trusting that God will do GREAT things! :)
