Recently I attended two weddings and I was able to share with individuals what I do for a living. After sharing with them about what God has called me to do in Uganda, I was able to share with them the huge challenge as a missionary. When I first applied to Africa Inland Mission, one thing I knew was that God will never forsake me in whatever decisions I make and that I've made a huge commitment and put my life into His hands. During the times where I would share with others about Uganda, I would let them know that being a missionary is a very challenging and difficult lifestyle, not only on the field but off the field. I tell others of how much faith is required at this point of my life because choosing this lifestyle as a career is not the easiest choice to be made, nor will the tasks be easy. A lot of the faith comes in when you realize how much you have to rely on God to provide the required funding to live as a missionary.
Looking back at how foolish I was to doubt God and His power and provision, I can truly say that God wants me there in September. As of today, I am at 81% of my monthly target and 25% of my outgoing target.
