Waiting

January is approaching fast and there is still so much that I need to do before I leave. I have been so busy working two jobs and planning fundraisers so I am just now sending out support letters. Seems like it's a little late in the game but I trust that God will provide what I need in the hour that I need it!

I feel so overwhelmed sometimes when I sit and think about leaving everything that's familiar to me to go to a place that is so unfamiliar. I have been struggling with the concept of waiting. I hate the transition mode! The other night I was doing my Beth Moore Bible study and ironically the whole thing was on waiting. She was speaking of Esther and how when it was time for her to be in the presence of her husband(finally!!) King Xerxes and he finally gave her an opportunity to ask for anything she wanted she chose to wait because she knew that the time was not right. Waiting is extremely exhausting! But the Lord promises us that "when we wait upon the Lord, our strength WILL be renewed" Isaiah 40:31. Our culture is training us in impatience and that is the very opposite of what God wants! In our waiting He is working! I wanted to share that with you because I know waiting is not easy!

If any of you want a support letter let me know and I'll be happy to send one your way! Until the next time I send an update, so-long and God Bless!!

Meghan!
