Send Me Out

Wow! We’re less then 4 days out until we leave for Honduras! And can I say I am MORE then excited to leave. God has placed such a passion for foreign missions in my heart and has provided in so many ways for me to go to Honduras this year. I cannot thank Him enough for this amazing opportunity. I am so excited to see how God is going to work through our team going!

As I’ve been in prayer and the Word this week before we leave, there is one song I have been listening to constantly. Send Me Out, by Steve Fee. My favorite part of the song says:

Here am I. I will go. Send me out to make You known. There is hope for every soul. Send me out, Send me Out.

This has been my prayer for the last couple of weeks and for the days we get to spend in Honduras. Its what I am asking God to have our mind set on, as we are serving Him and letting Him use us in everyway. God is going to do amazing things. He already has in getting us ready to leave!

So here am I…I will go…Send me out to make Him known.

Don’t be Jonah’s

As I listened to 105.9 last night, Wally talked about how he faught the Lord over the direction his life was going.  God wanted him to go one way and Wally said it was something he didn’t want to do.  We forget that the Lord knows all and only does what is best for us.  Too many times we are Jonah’s.  We want to do what we think is best for us and don’t follow the leadership of our Lord.  

We’re told to go into this world and make deciples (Matt 28: 19-20)  Going into this world starts at home.  If we can’t talk to friends and family about God’s love at home, how can we go elsewhere?  This year let’s try to not be Jonah’s.  Instead, let’s be followers of Christ by sharing to others how Christ died for our sins b/c he loved us so much.  Remember this statment for the year:  Our attitudes and actions reflect our heart!

BTW do you remember what happened to Jonah?  He ened up in a big fish and following God’s will anyway!
