The Call

After months of prayer and confirmation, we have shared it with our family that we have a call to Thailand. A call to preach the gospel. A call that we believe in the deepest part of our heart and soul is God's Will for our family. It is to our heart that the Holy Spirit has revealed this to us. We know the temporal pain that we will feel as we begin to adjust to our lives as they are now, to what they will be. We know that the Lord will provide peace and healing. Just as it hurts us, we know that it can be painful to those we love as well. We know that not everyone will "get" what the Holy Spirit has spoken to our hearts, but it is our hearts desire that our loved ones get that we "get it".

A Letter of Faith

My Father says, "Go and serve me. My call upon your family is greater than your hearts desires in Texas." Clearly I hear my Fathers word & we obey. What is yet to unfold is the reaction of our leaving to serve our master. The way our family and friends will tug at our hearts. Will they understand how impossible it would be to deny my God? How to turn away from what God has called our family to? That it is not understood why God has moved in our lives & pressed & disciplined us for the time He has called. That I wonder, "Who am I to go spread the Gospel?" I am nothing but a daughter; but no I am more because I am an heir in the royal family! That God has called us as a family. That His plan and wisdom is far greater than I can comprehend. So I go. So we go. I know He is in control. I know His Will is the safest place to be. I rest and worry not because I continually surrender control to Christ. That I pray that my friend, the Holy Spirit, will guide our ways and protect us. So now I pray for my friends and families hearts. That they would receive the calling placed upon our family. That the hearts of those would be comforted and blessed. That the devil would not be able to take root, in the Name of Jesus! The devil will not like our serving God. Knowing in Faith that our God has authority over all and will keep us under teh shadows of His wings. That the Lord is our refuge, and in Him we will be safe and comforted. With the knowledge of the mission in which we are to partake is known, now we wait eagerly. How soon will we go? The need is great, our hearts are being prepared - when? It will be beautiful to see the work of God unfold our paths & overcome our obstacles. So today, tomorrow and for the days to come - we put on our armor and get before our God until He says, "It is time."
