His Will
I want you to know that spell check is not working, and it is hot here in the Internet Cafe, so you get what you get, misspelled word and all.
When I get the call placed on my heart to go to Asia, I never know the exact why. Here I sit, three weeks into this program and I have to ask, why am I here? The bottom line is His will, not mine. Sure, it would be easy to say, "To share His word," but is that so? May be I am building a foundation for others in the future? I don't know. What I do know is that He will show me when it is time. His will.
As I sat this morning drinking my Cafe su da, I marveled at how He works. I quitely prayed for the people as I watched them buzzing around doing their early morning chores. Why am I here? Is it for the students, the teachers we are meeting or am I discipling the North American college students on my team, or all of the above? I could ponder that for a long time, or I can leave the answer in the capable hands of the Father.
I know that we are brining love, His love to these students, to the people we are meeting, and we are building a bridge of friendship that will last long into the future. We are picking rocks from the soil, and if it is in His will, we will plant seeds. I know that I am grateful for Him to allow me to do kingdom work.
All is well. My team is functioning as they are supposed to, in love, and following Matthew 18;15. I am spending a lot of time with the Vietnamese teachers, and sharing teaching methodologies. We are hot, and often times our clothes are drenched in sweat, but we smile, and we keep on going. They are amazed at our energy. It isn't ours, but His, He supplies us with what we need. Three weeks left, miracles are up to Him, we pray for them, but we must remember, it is His timing and His will. When all is done here for us, He will remain behind faithfully fulfilling His promises.
