"Worship is ultimate, not missions. Because God is ultimate, not man. When this age is over and the countless millions of the redeemed fall on their faces before the throne of God, missions will be no more. It is a temporary neccessity, but worship abides forever."

Just thinking...

This will be another short one...

I'm in the process of finishing up the editing for my support video. Each day this trip becomes more real, and each day my fears are made known. My prayer life has grown exceedingly in asking for God's wisdom and peace through this time of preparation. As my Spanish skills progress and May 12 gets closer, the more I have to rely on the strength of the Lord.

My flesh and my spirit are in a constant battle of sin, repentance, and sanctification. Preparing for this mission and relying fully on the Lord is harder than I would have ever thought. I am unsure of my own abilities, but I know if I rely on the Lord, everything will work for His glory!


Then I said, Ah, Lord God! Behold, I do not know how to speak, for I am only a youth. But the Lord said to me, "Do not say, 'I am only a youth'; for to all to whom I send you, you shall go, and whatever I command you, you shall speak. Do not be afraid of them, for I am with you to deliver you, declares the Lord."
-Jermiah 1:6-8
