It's been a while....

Everyone keeps asking me what is going on with my trip to Spain.  It is a difficult question to answer since I am not the One who is in control.  Only God can answer the question of WHEN I am going to Spain, or even IF I am going to Spain.  God is teaching me so much in this waiting period.  I have so much to learn in order to do God's work.  In the past year since beginning to fund-raise, I have already gained so much in my relationship with my Lord...not to mention the people around me and myself.  The Almighty One is grooming me and shaping me into the person He wants me to be.  I still don't know who that person is...but I know for certain that she wants to serve Christ!

I recently moved in with a family headed up by a woman wise beyond her years.  She prays for wisdom at every turn and continues to impart it to me.  I know that living with her is no accident.  She is patient, kind, giving, and one of the brightest reflections of Christ that I know.  God knows what He is doing by placing me under her roof.

I am dealing with many "man" issues that have been plaguing me since I can remember.  So, why else would God then place me, also, in a house with a man that treats me so similarly to the way my father does?  I believe that it is because my Daddy in heaven wants me to turn to Him instead of the disappointing men of this world that I have continuously depended on for happiness in the past.

I have also recently had a man in my life who proclaimed that he loved me and never wanted me out of his life to turn on me at the drop of a hat.  Again, my Heavenly Father is shaping me to depend solely on HIM for love and tenderness.  He is a jealous God and will not stand for me to put another first.  No one else loves like the Lord.  He is the ultimate example of faithfulness.  He will never leave me like the people of this world.  

So....when am I going to Spain?  Who knows?  Well...the all-knowing, all-powerful, all-faithful, all-loving, jealous, righteous, eternal Father does!

Pray for me, as I will continue to pray for all of you that our path may be made clear in this world of chaos.

In His grip....
