My deepest desire has been and will continue to be to serve Him everyday in every way. Okay, well at least as much as humanly possible. And I am on the cusp of being able to be paid to be His servant - CRAZY and wonderful, scary and exciting all rolled up into one. I am very excited, but I hope that I also enter into ministry with less naivety than I would have had 10 years, or even 5 years ago, though I know that I have much to learn and experience. I do have fear, but it is fear that is in check with reality, a healthy fear, as I have been referring to it, knowing that I am nothing without Him. But with Him nothing is impossible - how exciting and extraordinary!
So my prayer tonight, as I reflect about what lies ahead for me - a new adventure, for my husband who is giving up his job - tomorrow is his last day, for our family - as we prepare to move in just a little over a week is this...Desperate, we throw ourselves on you:
you are our God!
Hour by hour we place our days in your hand,
safe from the hands out to get us.
Warm us, your servants, with smiles;
save us because you love us.
Don't embarrass us by not showing up;
we've given you plenty of notice.
Psalm 31:13-15 (The Message)
Thank you Lord for blessing us so abundantly, now and always!
