It has been a long-awaited road up until now. But here I am, and God gets the glory.

I recently received some wonderful news, that I am going on a vision trip to Honduras in February on behalf of Summit Church student ministry. (A vision trip is similar to what God sent Joshua and Caleb on in Numbers 13-14.)

And I can tell you that every moment of preparation for this trip has been one that caused me to find a more solidified trust in Jesus unlike I have experienced so far.

In the four years of waiting, praying, and feeling the burden of missions without a clear road, I am finally able to walk into this trip knowing that He was the one who has spoken this over my life, before I even knew.

In these last few months, I have been met with feelings that made me feel crippled by what-ifs and honestly just suspended in the unknown. The emotions of past hurt and confusion quickly muddled my perspective.

Through this season though, I knew that I had to keep going and lay my expectations and my fears at Jesus’ feet.

I’m forever grateful that I kept going in that place and let His steadfast love be my covering and vehicle.

I am anticipating more and more of God’s blessings and am mostly grateful for the thankfulness that abounds out of seasons where trust is needed.

Please join in prayer with me for:

Safe travel for our team
Fullness of health
That we would be a refreshing presence for the host missionaries
That I would be able to have clarity and vision for our future youth mission trip
That I would gain wisdom and understanding for all the procedures and information to relay for leading the youth trip
For culture awareness and that the Holy Spirit would move beyond cultural boundaries
Unified and efficient, Holy Spirit-driven team

In whatever season you may find yourself, I pray that you would abound more and more in faith because He does have you in His sight. And the whispers of your heart that you long for, remember that He has wanted good things for you long before you could want them for yourself.
