As I am reaching the $4,000 mark I am getting even more excited! To think that just a few weeks ago I hadn't even been accepted to go on this trip, and now God has raised up people to pray for my team, along with people who are supporting me financially. God is really in control!
Last week I was reading through 1 Peter 5:6 and 7 which says "Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you at the proper time,casting all your anxiety on Him, because He cares for you." I had been really struggling with this concept. I kept saying that I had cast my anxieties on God and kept saying I wasnt worried about support. But when I read this passage I felt convicted cause I knew that I had been holding onto my anxiety. I was worried for support, I was worried that I couldnt raise the support, I was afraid I wasnt going to be able to go on the trip. But then God set me straight He reminded me that I am not the one doing any of this. It is all him and all his will. All my worrying and all my wanting to get support raising over with was really getting in the way of me experiencing his plan for me during this process. He has taught me that I am blessed to be a part of his awesome plan to get the gospel to the Argentines. He has shown me that if I put a little trust in my heavenly father then all my worries all my anxieties amount to nothing they just get in the way of his plan for me.
