Things I am scared of right now

God forgetting about me
Gods favor, what does that even mean, who has it,
who doesn’t, or does it ever work that way

Feeling alone in a moment and wondering if I will always feel like this
The doubt that sometime consumes my thoughts, maybe a little fear
My own thoughts and assumptions

Looking forward to things

Foundational truths that I know

God loves me
God wants to be my friend
I can trust God no matter what
God has a plan, a good plan for my life
My obedience is necessary
I need community, I can no longer live without it
God has not given me a spirit of fear, but of power and love and a sound mind

The Holy Spirit lives inside me
My God is a good God
So the truth always wins over the lies.
The lies only last a moment, feeling down only lasts so long.
God really does bless His people with an unspeakable JOY.

 

So if you have been following my blog you know that I should have left for Mexico yesterday and be there now. Well things don’t always work out the way you think they should and support for me is one of those things. I know God is calling me to mission, and specifically here with AIM and in Real Life, but for now I am still in Georgia waiting on the Lord.

Waiting for the Lord is not easy.

Support, to be really honest, sucks.

And to be even more honest I don’t really want to even raise support, but God calls us to a life of obedience, a full life is promised to us when we are obedient.

So with the departure of the rest of the leadership team I was on and the Novas Project kids on there way to Mexico, I sit here in Georgia and wait for the Lord.

What am I waiting for you ask, maybe new motivation, new direction, or maybe, just maybe waiting on Gods timing. I can be a little impatient with God. (And I know some of you that just read that are laughing a little)

How can you pray you ask?….I’m so glad you asked 🙂

Peace 
Patience
Financial support, that God would really make it clear to those He already has in mind.
That my heart would change and not long for this, if this mission thing is not what God wants

That the truth of God’s Word would be so much louder than the doubt and lies I am currently hearing and feeling.

So this is my heart right now, its hard for me to put it all into words, this is the best I can do for now. I don’t really let myself get excited for things, and this was something that I was ready and excited for, I know God is calling me to something, and I am really sure this is it, so if in your prayers you get a word for me or anything, please pass it along to me 🙂

I would love to hear from you!

Love

Katie

  3. it’s true… there are parts of this that made me laugh a little bit 😉 i’m so glad that you are continuing to be honest about where you are at. i do believe that God has huge things in store for you, and i believe that He is preparing you for them. and if you having to wait a bit longer results in getting to hangout with you a bit more, i’m ok with that 😉 Love you friend!

  4. I have great faith in you, my friend. I know the Lord does too. You can trust Him.

    In the meantime, I will join you in praying your cows in. Our daddy owns the cattle on a thousands hills and he is releasing some to you! Believe it!

  5. Hey, we miss you and we are for sure praying for you! We always hear about it not being about doing, but being. Well Katie, you are an amazing person and God has blessed you with many gifts. And as you are just being who the Father has made you to be, you are going to touch many people’s lives (where ever you are)! Continue to be faithful. He will put you where He wants you to be, when He wants you to be there. No matter where you are, you must learn to be content in just being His.
