Seeking Him

I've been on an extremely specific journey with God for the past nine months. It's been exciting, nerve racking, fun, scary and every emotion in between. Through a  three week fast in January, I continued to hear Him say, 'Guatemala.' I was pumped! I just knew He was calling me to move and serve in Guatemala. What an adventure and perfect timing. My youngest would be heading off to college in August (which has it's own emotions attached to that in and of itself) and I could live a life of serving on the mission field. It was and still is my passion to serve and a calling I would embrace!

Multiple trips to Guatemala came over the next few months along with confirmation and acceptance from the ministry in Guatemala.  This family embraced me with open arms. The planning began. The house was put on the market months before because I thought I was to 'down size' since my daughter was moving. Everything I owned became items that were for sale, the car, furniture, riding lawnmower, tools...everything. Nothing was important to keep anymore except my family pictures.

As time has continues on, I sit and wait. Sit and wait for the car and house to sell.

Nothing.

'God, what are you doing? I am continuing to seek You. I don't understand.'

'Family. Be here for your family.' He tenderly whispered to me.

Mom was diagnosed with a brain tumor and my daughter is headed out of state for college. I am to be here for my family and continue to wait on the Lord.

Wait for the LORD; be strong and take heart and wait for the LORD. Psalm 27: 13-14

I don't admit that I know every step that I am to take but I am humbly seeking Him in every area. In my personal walk, for my family, in ministry, in Go4Him. All of it is His.

So that is what I am doing... Seeking Him and Waiting for the Lord.
