God is Good!

Wow! is the only word that describes how awesome trusting in the Lord is.
I knew that going on this trip to Africa was going to cost a lot of money on travel alone. Feeling the call to go, I didn't want money to be the thing that stopped me from going. Here is where handing over my own petty little reasons and fears to the Lord comes in. It is one thing for me to say I trust the Lord with everything and another to actually do it. So I called myself out.
I not only felt the Holy Spirit nudging me to step out on a limb, I felt the Spirit shoving me.
I decided to go on this trip regardless of whether or not I could raise a single penny. I prayed that if God really wants me to go then He will provide the funds to get me there. He has not only provided funds for me, but He has shown me how much the people around me are here to support and encourage me.

I am over half way funded for this trip. Each time I receive my share letters back in the mail I am speechless at how generous the people around me are. I am so thankful, grateful, and humbled at how the Lord has shown me in a very real way that He is here walking with me every step of the way.

This trip is going is going to be so amazing. I am anxious to see what God does next.
