Perfect Timing


Well, I don’t really think that words can even scratch the surface. But I need to try.

I am in Haiti right this very second. I am sitting outside with hope of catching a slight breeze for even a moment.

I don’t know where to begin. This past week serving with Incline Student Ministries was unbelievable. I really saw God moving in and through each and every person on our team. We visited four different orphanages and I fell in love every day. We got to minister in several different ways and it was so exciting to see the Spirit move and lead us. 

At the start of this week, I had no clue how things were going to turn out. I packed my bags with a promise from the Lord that I would be staying in Haiti as my team returned. I was nervous. I was excited. I had peace but I had a tiny bit of question. As the week unraveled, the Lord worked out every detail.  I am staying with the Kimball family. Doug and his son Colton were with our team all week.  Their family is so amazing. Their faith is astounding. I am so blessed to be able to stay with them for any amount of time while I am in Haiti. I am excited to learn from them. I am excited to serve them and serve with them. The Lord has worked out every single aspect and He has designed it so perfectly. 

On Sunday, God revealed the length of time He wants me to serve this time. I was sitting outside the church, just waiting. I wasn’t thinking about anything regarding my trip, staying or going home.  All of the sudden, the number seven just came into my head. Seven months. I counted it out in my head and that puts me at the end of February. So, I’ll be serving and loving until then. I’ll be coming home in March. It’s a long time but not too long.

Everything is coming together. There are still many things left to sort and figure out but I am confident that they will be settled smoothly with the grace of God. Our God is so good. SO GOOD. SO PERFECT. SO WONDERFUL. SO MARVELOUS. SO INCREDBILE. SO REMARKABLE.

I am so thankful that God has a plan and that I don’t really have to worry about any of it. He has it all under control. And He’s never failed before.

Thank you all for your prayers and support. I love you guys. More updates to come. :)
