Bethany Joy

I'm blessed. Tonight I was so grateful to have shared special time with family and friends before heading out of town in the morning. Oh how he Loves us so...Is the song that comes to mind. All the details of the trip to India aside and just pausing to remember how much he loves me is so amazing. I want to thank you everyone who helped me remember that tonight! The prayers, encouraging words, warnings, affirmations were just what I needed without even knowing that I needed it.

Tonight I will rest well knowing that He is with me and that I rest in his shadow. It is good to be near him. For in his presence is fullness of Joy and at his right hand are pleasures forever.

A perfect example was made right before me today about how God works.

I have been working on a project for months now and finally today finished it. I called the person I had made it for and that person said they were praying for one of these for a while now! It showed me that even before we ask for something, God is working behind the scenes to accomplish His plan for His glory! He uses things we think are silly to make himself real. Trust him for that because today He may be using you and you don't even know.

Tomorrow I am reunited with most of my team as they come in one by one to Idaho for the last week in the states together. Sam, Annie, Beth and I will be traveling what I like to call 'gypsy style' across the great state of Washington for eastern territory! We were so happy to find out that Annie and Sam's youth pastor is moving to Idaho this weekend! I smell adventure.
