Faithfulness

so I have been here for seven months and seven days and all I can say is God is so Faithful! When I heard him calling me here so many years ago I thought to my self why is this taking so long? But God had a plan. I am here with Justin and he is so good for me! If had come sooner I would missing out on this great man who is teaching me so much! And when God told me to sell all I had I was excited until I had to part with all my vintage pyrex and my stone ware. I was cringing every time a lady would ask me to go down on the price for my treasured nick nacks at the garage sale. I even cried when we had moved out of our house and were staying with family and friends for the last two weeks in the US. But that all had a purpose, I have new cool stuff here that isn't vintage or even nice but it is cheap and I get to use it while living in the Philippines! And those last two weeks were great because we were able to visit and spend quality time with people we love before moving here.
I am so amazed at how God plans things out for me. He knows me even better than I know myself. I find out information and get all bent out of shape and then when it is all said and done I am so glad it worked out the way it did, and God knew that it would! I am learning to look at my circustances with a differant perspective. I know how hold the world in his hands and nothing I face hasn't gone past his sign of aprovale frist. He is right here and will guide me and direct me and I can trust him!
It took me moving around the world to get so many things I never could quit grasp and I am so greatful to all the suporters who are ultimitly paying my way to be here and I get to study God's word every day and I get to share His love with kids and people who need it so badly. I am overwhelmed by HIS FAITHFULNESS!
I hope that as you go through your day weather it is going to work or changing dypers, or just checking your mail that you can step back for just a moment and think of all the times God has been faithfull to you and realize that he has a plan for your life too! Praise Him Thank him and Let's Honor Him for he is Faithful.

Or cleaning up your kids barf off the floor and thanking god that He gave you wood floors!
God is faithful. It is easy to remember that with the big stuff, but not always with the little things. Thank you for the reminder. Love you.
