What will it be like in this land God has called me to? To these people He has always loved whom I never knew existed until recently? I am thrilled to have my country assignment, but in my excitement, I can't help but wonder...
 |
| What will they be like? |
 |
| How has this land shaped their hearts? |
 |
| Maybe they'll be hilarious like so many of my friends here... |
 |
| I'll undoubtedly have much to learn. |
 |
| What new things will I learn about Him who loves me and them so that He sent His own Son? |
 |
| And here in this town where I'll live, I pray that He'll grant me a love for their souls and the discernment to know when I'm hindering and when I'm helping them and myself to know Him more. |
Tempered by the unknowns. Propelled by His love.
"I am under obligation both to Greeks and non-Greeks, both to the wise and to the foolish. So I am eager to preach the gospel..."
The Apostle Paul
