I love Thanksgiving! It is a time to enjoy special time with family and reflect on God’s goodness. I have been thinking back over this year, and I am amazed at all that has happened! I see God’s hand and His plan that is unfolding and bigger than I could have imagined. Here are a few of the highlights for me from this last year:
– Taking a class from Kent and Erika- squeezing an amazing amount of information and digging into God’s Word into two weeks! God deepened my conviction for those who haven’t had a chance to hear about Jesus and also stirred my heart to increase my prayers for Cambodia and the unreached. Out of this came a very special weekly time of prayer with my now-teammate Kristin.
– Finishing three years of study at Dallas Baptist University and celebrating with friends and family. It has been a privilege to get to further my education and learn from great professors and fellow students.
– Lovely visits from friends, exploring Dallas together and making memories
– Getting to go home to Nebraska for two cousins’ weddings, and spending some really special time with family.
– Seeing prayers answered as my sister went to Cambodia and watching her journey begin to the nations
– A deepening love for the Khmer people, seeing God provide in amazing ways as I prepare to go, and confirmation that this the way and I am to walk in it, even as I battle fears or doubts. God continues to use His Word, songs and stories to confirm this direction.
The way is not always easy, but God’s grace is so amazing!
