Trusting in Him

I think today i realized that sometimes to overcome something you have to realize you cant. you have to come to the end of yourself, and break to the point where you are so weak, that you're strong; in him at least. for days i was fighting with god, i felt like a 2 year old who was on the floor kicking and screaming demanding my way; i didnt want to be here, i didnt want to stay somewhere i felt so uncomfortable. yesterday morning i was in my quiet time with god, and i felt like he was asking me to take a risk, to make a greater committment to him. to trust him, and to stay in Argentina. at this i knew, without a shadow of a doubt that although i may not feel called to be a preacher, or maybe even a missionary someday, God still has a calling on my life; and as a christian i'm called to be obedient to that calling.
In my quiet time there, i made a promise to god, to take that leap of faith to take his hand and trust that what he has in store, can only be good. Jeremiah 29:11 says "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." and so i fall back on those very words. and trust that god will protect me.. and help me to grow in my time here.
to all those who are keeping up with me, your time, your love and most of all your prayers are so very appreciated. I send love to you all wherever you are at this time and hopefully be able to converse with you soon. Blessings to all.
