Going for God

It has almost been a year! Where I was facedown and heard the call of God! Now I am looking around this house that is not mine and staring at two suitcases. One that is a carry on for all my clothes and the second one that is for my supplies to Africa!!!  A Question keeps running through my mind.....How did I get here....? How does a single mother of two kids find herself following God across the world?

 

1.  I had to learn that all the stuff I had... and yes they held memories but... did not belong to me! That all of if belong to God and he allowed me to have! YES!! Seven tubs of fabric is God's fabric not mine... But I could still use it though!!!

 

2. I did not have to have all the answers!! And learned to answer the questions with this saying: I don't know, but God does!!! So where are you going to live? I don't know... but God does! What are you going to do about support? I don't know... But God does!! It came in handy!!

 

3. I had to learn to laugh at myself!! Yes God has a great sense of humor!! I hate washing dishes... guess who washing dishes at night NOW!!! I hate snakes! Guess who keeps seeing snakes in the USA!!! Guess who forgot to bring sunscreen one day to the beach!!! Yes I think I laugh at myself more every day!

 

4. Although I did not have the best background!!! God still could use me to do His work!!!! Even when you are changing a flat tire, and letting the Police officer watch you do this, you still can tell him about you trip to Africa!!

 

5. The best thing I learned was to get my self-worth from God and God alone!!! I can be label by the world anything they want, but God is the only one that can give me my self-worth!!!
