So, my new friend, Lindsey, is reading The Irresistible Revolution. A book that changed my life. She emailed me a quote from it the other day, "Rather than waiting for God's special plan for your life - you should just go find where God is at work and join in." This is such good advice! I think too often I've been waiting for some crystal clear sign that God wants me here or there, doing specifically this or that, and while I'm waiting I get distracted and end up doing nothing.
I went to the first Africa team meeting this weekend. I cried almost the entire time. But, I also had this relief from the fear that I am not good enough to go there. I know I will be used. Everything has fallen into place effortlessly, and I trust that He has work for me to do on this mission.
As the saying goes, "Practice makes perfect." I'm committed to doing something until I figure it out, and maybe that is all God was waiting for.
