Follow us, following Him.

"Sometimes I would like to ask God why He allows poverty, suffering, and injustice when He could do something about it." ...Well, why don't you ask Him?... "Because I'm afraid He would ask me the same question."

One

I met with my Eagle Brook Healing Haiti team yesterday for our commissioning service.  I absolutely love this new family I have!  Their hearts are so open to what God has for them in the beautiful country of Haiti.  I have been struggling a lot lately with the idea of doing the things that the Lord has laid out for me; being a piece of a gigantic puzzle and wanting to make sure it is played in the right spot.  As long as I am listening to God, it is exactly the right spot.  But how much of what I "hear from God" is actually me thinking He is speaking but I am wanting it so badly that it is actually me?  I want to walk, listen and obey Him, and I also want my walking to be in line with what He wants.  Is this the right direction, Lord? 

 "In the end God works in our world one person at a time.  The hungry are fed, the thirsty are refreshed, the naked are clothed, the sick are treated, the illiterate are educated, and the grieving are comforted, just ONE PERSON AT A TIME.  You have the opportunity to be that one person to someone who needs what you have to offer.  And what you have to offer is never small and insignificant.  Again, the great picture of what God is doing in our world is incomplete without your unique puzzle piece-the one that only you posses.  But you have to choose to play that piece of the puzzle".

I am choosing to play.  
EBC Haiti Team 2! 
My next trip to Haiti is February 25- March 4... only 2 short (or long) weeks away.  My prayer is that my heart with be ready.   That the team's hearts will be empty vessels, waiting to be filled with You, Lord!  

What if I'm the one?
