Trust

If you give me an assignment, or a task to complete, I'm your gal. I am all about crossing things off a list. Left to the great white unknown plain of possibility, I flounder.

In five weeks, I am going on an adventure like I've never had before. I am headed to the great, mysterious continent of Africa to see what the Lord would have me DO to serve Him. Last night, as our small team met to discuss plans and pray, I left without the one thing that would make me feel secure. My list. There was no talk of an itinerary, no mention of a schedule, no whisper of ANY plans. My heart was racing to say the least. How will I know how to prepare? More importantly, how will I know what to pack?

I am positive that this is the beginning of an adventure of trust. Faithfully seeking Him as fresh manna to feed me every morning. He will go before me and make my plans straight. He will equip me for every good work. HE WILL. I can do nothing for Him. I will show up every day, committing this trip and our fellow believers in Christ half-way around the world to prayer. I don't need a list to do that.
