delight yourself in the Lord

Aren't ya glad Monday is over? 

So I feel like all I talk about nowadays is God's will. What is His will for me? What does He want me to do? Where does He want me to go? Trust trust trust trust. 

The Lord opened my eyes more to His purpose in Sunday school this past week. "We may be willing but that might not be God's will." What? So you're saying even though I am willing to be a missionary in Africa but that may not be His will? Of course, I still live as a missionary, sharing the love of Christ, and walking with Him in the place I'm at. But what I'm getting to is, God plan is perfect and that is all I want for my life. He may not send me to another country even thought I think I've made it clear, I'm willing to do just that. 

Maybe this will be my last post about God's will..... 

Another thing! I've noticed when I take delight in Him, He equips me and gives me what I need to fulfill His purpose. For instance, all of the sudden since I spoke in front of my church after Haiti, I have this weird urge and excitement to speak in front of crowds when I get the chance. I still get nervous about being in front of numbers of people. I actually like speaking in front of a people. This is so not me. I am shy, quiet, and very to myself. When I was in Haiti, we had the chance to share our testimony, a devotion, or anything that God laid on our hearts to speak in front of the Haitian church. I've already begun preparing my testimony for when I return to Haiti in the spring! I know this is not on my own because I could ask anybody that has known me if they ever thought I would enjoy public speaking, they would say heck to the no. I don't know what God is doing in me but I have a feeling it's MUCH BIGGER than me.

"Take delight in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart." -Psalm 37:4

"For I can do everything through Christ who gives me strength." -Philippians 4:13

Have a happy and blessed Tuesday! I am praying for my readers just to let ya know!
