Spring Break

It seems as though, I've already fell behind in blogging' but I felt that there wasn't too much traffic coming here. Yet, I feel tis time for yet another jaunt on blog lane. *said with a British accent it can sound quite cool*

So, the good news is that I have finally stopped this insaneness of not being able to sleep because of my excitement over the thought of Ocean City. It was hard for me to continue on like that with school and everything. I have also made it through the nastiest mid-terms week that I have yet to see. So, I sit in my parent's basement on spring break, while my friends are in Florida!
That's a shout out to them, no jealousy!

So, as I realized that my prayers for Ocean City were answered, I quickly slipped once again into complacency until I was lying unasleep on one of those nights and realized that I had even MORE that I needed to be asking the Lord for. I thought I might share my short list with you.
In fact, I sort of summed them up even for myself.

1) Spiritual Preparedness-
That my heart and the hearts of students joining me on project will be right before the LORD and open to what he will want to do to us through this project. Also that God would through His Spirit begin to prepare the hearts of the people we will be sharing the gospel with.
2) Support
This week I am sending out letters asking people to partner with me, a big step of faith! That people would see this as an opportunity to partner with me in the gospel, and would give. Not because I'm worthy, but because my King is!
3) Job
That I would find a job upon arrival in Ocean City.

These are all things that are testing my faith, as I continually choose to not worry about them, but to place them in the hands of the one who truly is capable to meet all these need, more than abundantly!

I have been continuing in my Beth Moore study and I think what has impacted me the most in the past week, is reading about Joseph. He believed the promise that God gave to Abraham of the promise land. The promise took place 400 years after it was given to them. Joseph could easily have believed that God had forgotten, but he chose to continue on in faith, believing that God is faithful!
