Come And Listen...

"Let me tell you what He has done for me."  This David Crowder song came to mind when I was struggling with how to start this blog.  I've told friends that I do not want this to be a place where I showcase my life; if it ever turns into that, they are encouraged to let me know.  You have permission, as well.  I've been incredibly blessed by the countless people who have affirmed and supported (emotionally, spiritually, financially) my decision to move to Rwanda for a year.  I honestly feel that I'm surrounded by a great cloud of witnesses - friends, old and new, who believe in me and and are WITH me.  I want you to know that I am going to run with perseverance this particular race marked out for me, throwing off everything that hinders and sin that entangles.  And throughout the coming months, I am committed to working with all of my heart.

In Priscilla Shirer's study, Discerning the Voice of God, she writes, "If God calls you, He will equip you.  Give Him the opportunity to display His supernatural activity as He uses you for His glory."  (More about this study later.) The purpose of this blog is to share with you what Lord is up to in my life, in Rwanda, in the lives of students, and in any way He chooses to showcase His glory.  I'm honored to be His vessel and am so grateful for the opportunity to work for Bridge2Rwanda.  It's neat to look back and see how He's been preparing my heart for this next season; I can't wait to tell you how it unfolded!
