6 Months Left...

Wow.
Time sure does fly. It was just about this time last year that I decided to lift everything up to God and see what He is going to be addressing to me (or not) at Missionfest 2009. Who knew that ever since, it's been constant preparation.
On a daily basis, it's been quite tiring. I would have never thought that there would be so much preparation work going into this; physically, mentally and spiritually.
One thing I'm very thankful to God for during this process, is the amazing encouragements I've received from all sorts of people. Not only do I know that there will be literally spiritually warfare on the mission field, but I do also understand that Satan never rests even preparing for the field. I've been discouraged from time-to-time, where it's discouragements that I will not receive enough funding by September 23, or I do not feel capable to take on this position in Uganda or even the simplest discouragement that gets to all of us, sin. I then look back at the many events that God put me through, and I still managed to pull through by His grace, and think to myself 'WHY ON EARTH WOULD I EVEN THINK OF SUCH THINGS? WHY SHOULD I BE WORRIED ABOUT THESE THINGS? I'VE GONE THROUGH SO MUCH AND LOOK AT WHERE I AM TODAY, WHY SHOULD I HAVE THESE THOUGHTS?'
