Missions Trip, New Revelation
Hey all,
I'm heading out to Mexico on April 5 - 15. It is the first time I have been back since my first life-changing missions trip to Mexico 3 years ago. I am PUMPED!!
This time, I don't have the money to do it myself. And so I decided to try the "fundraising" thing. It has truly been an incredible blessing to see people donate money to my trip. I have gotten money from clients, friends, and even friends of my parents including one that I've never met(!) How cool! I was concerned I was being reckless with my finances by doing deciding on going, but I guess God has seen it as wisdom to ask others for help. Right now it looks like I will be just fine, despite the taxes I'm paying in.
In other news, I posted a while ago about the life-changing revelation God gave me a month or two back about being the "Bride of Christ". I am still living in the newness of that, and I have also found that my mentality at times does not line up with it. I suppose whenever God brings us closer, we have some habits and thought patterns of the past that we need to re-align to the newly revealed (to us) truth. This is what the Bible calls the "renewing of our mind."
God bless all who read this.
