What an exciting opportunity! I can honestly say I never dreamed of going to India. If truth be told I am a little scared about going there now. However, I do not think I have ever had God open doors of opportunity so easily in my life. When the opportunity was presented I felt that stirring to check into it a little further. When I shared it with Sherry I thought she would say why would you want to go there…instead she said I think you should go! (maybe she just wants to get rid of me for a few days…HaHa). I asked a few guys at church to pray with me about it before making a final decision and they replied with encouragement to step out and go. I wondered about the finances and God has used some incredible people to more than provide. After years in ministry and many trips I am used to the bumps and glitches that are always present. The problem is thee have been none! I don’t know what to think about that. I have the normal concerns: it is far away, will I be able to communicate (no spanisho in Indio so I might have a problemo), will I like the food, will I be safe? the strange thing is everytime I come up with a question or concern, God has a way of answering it or showing me just how insignificant it really is. So, it is exciting, and scary, and humbling all rolled into one amazing trip. Please keep praying for me and for Sherry and the kids. We really need it!
