So as I sit here contemplating this adventure Josh and I are about to take, with details that still need to be worked out, I can't help but feel uncomfortable.
My wonderful "I can handle it" humaness has been stripped away layer by layer, I feel vulnerable and dependent on God like never before. I don't consider myself trapped by materialism but when I see the bills and required expenses and I see our bank account...well I'm not a genius but the two don't add up. And I know God can move mountains, but this mustard seed of faith, that's mine, has yet to sprout.
I don't doubt our mission to go, that God is working in the Philippines. That he wants to use me, to train me to help women who are pregnant, to show His love in a tangible way. But right now I don't feel so useful.
Faith is the evidence of things unseen.
There's a memory verse I'm working on retaining:
"Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the Lord our God." -Psalm 20:7
May you be blessed and encouraged by these words of truth.
