You Could Never Have Imagined

Today as I was completing my Sonship homework this is what I was reminded of in the lecture by Josiah Bancroft. “God has not changed your heart and spoken grace into you to bear no fruit. He can and will use you to do things you could never have imagined.”

Wow! What a wonderful reminder! There have been things God called me to do in the past that I couldn’t see myself doing. Nonetheless, he carried me through. I am trusting in His faithfulness to carry me through this next calling of going to Uganda. I see example after example of Christ’s faithfulness to me, and others around me. I am trusting Him to carry me through the next years, which I know won’t be easy.  Something else Josiah said that encouraged me was, “ Missions (ministry) costs a lot, but in it there is joy.”

“My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” 2 Corinthians 12:9
