Stay Calm?? Ha!

"Sit quietly in My presence while I bless you."

-Jesus Calling, Aug. 5

Last night when I was sitting still and listening, while praying to my Daddy, He told me "Tomorrow, stay calm. Stay in my presence and just stay calm." So of course, my mind instantly thought, "oh my! something bad is going to happen!". But then I realized that I need to trust God tonight, and keep calm in Him in the morning!

So, I wake up to a phone call, from Tyler, Texas of all places! I think to myself that I don't know anyone from Tyler (and this is at around 10:30 A.M.), so I answer it! The first thing the guy said was the name "Global Expeditions"! When he said that, I was too in shock to listen for his name, because I knew he was calling me to tell me something about MISSION TRIPS!!!!

So, once I recover from excitement, the guy tells me of the winter/Christmas time trips that I can join! There are four trips, and I can only remember two of them! Haha!! One of them was a Mexico trip, and another was..... SOUTH AFRICA!!!! When he says "South Africa", I become even more excited about being woken up from my beauty sleep by a phone call!
The guy then asks me if any of the trips interested me at the moment, and of course I told him the S. Africa one! He then tells me All about it! Here is the info he told me:

December 28-January 8 (I think)

Will be working in orphanages

Helping the community we stay in

Sharing Jesus

$3484

I tell you this so you can see why I am so excited! Because if you have read some of my first blog posts, you know that God has placed my heart somewhere in Africa, amongst the children, and it is time that I go find it! (In a good way)

 

 

If this is going to happen, it is going to have to happen All in God's will. because $3000 is a lot, but I know that if God wants this to happen, it will!

I'm so ready to get out of little town Weatherford and "fly"! Adventures of following God are out there waiting for me, and my heart is longing to go chase them down!

 

 

"Spirit lead me where my trust is with out borders,

Let me walk upon the waters, where ever you have called me.

Take me deeper than my feet could ever wander,

And my faith will be made stronger,

In the presence of My Savior!"
