Opportunity

Wow! I cannot believe I will be on a plane in 3 weeks headed for North Africa! Amazing!! I was given the opportunity to talk to some children at my church here in PA, and I was telling them about the need for North Africa. They need to hear about the Lord! There are millions who have never heard about Him. Pray for me that I would have the strength and courage as I teach English to them and as I learn their language- Arabic!

I am praying every day that He would use me while I am there and that He would teach me many things. I know it will be difficult at times, but I know that He will be with me!
Keep me in your prayers as I seek to serve Him and draw nearer to Him!

Waiting

Waiting for something we want is not easy! Recently, I have decided that while I am waiting on the Lord's perfect timing I am going to serve Him to my fullest potential. This summer I will be going to North Africa on a mission's trip. Pray that God would be glorified through all I do.


I'm waiting
I'm waiting on You, Lord
And I am hopeful
I'm waiting on You, Lord
Though it is painful
But patiently, I will wait

I will move ahead, bold and confident Taking every step in obedience
While I'm waiting I will serve You While I'm waiting I will worship While I'm waiting I will not faint I'll be running the race Even while I wait

I'm waiting
I'm waiting on You, Lord
And I am peaceful
I'm waiting on You, Lord
Though it's not easy
But faithfully, I will wait
