Anyone who knows me knows I am a planner. I love being
organized and having a schedule. I like to know what is going on all the time.
I rarely leave my house without my planner.
God knows that.
And that is why He has called me to let all of that go. All
of the planning, schedules and organizing- down the drain.
Why?
So He can show up. So HIS plan can be accomplished.
I know it may sound crazy that I am taking a team to
Guatemala (in one week) and yet don’t really know what we are going to be doing
while we are there.
But the even crazier thing to me is that God has taken me,
the girl who has a color coded schedule, and has given me PEACE about not
planning. He has given me peace that I can’t quite comprehend. I don’t know
what is going to happen ten out of the fourteen days we are there, and I don’t
know what I am going to do with all of the money that has been collected for
this trip. But I what I do know is that God has called me and my ten team
members to Guatemala for a reason. And
He has told me to not plan because He has something planned. I know what He has
told me, what He has commanded me to do, and I know that He is never going to
fail me.
So as we head out on Saturday, I ask that you pray. Pray for
safety; pray that God would make His plan known and that we would not get in
the way. Pray that we will be able to share the love of Jesus to the people of
Puerto Barrios.
God’s got a plan for this trip. I am so excited for Him to
reveal it to me and to see His glory shine! God, I praise you for your
ultimate, wonderful, and divine plan.
“Now to him who is able to do immeasurably
more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within
us.” Ephesians 3:20
