As I hung out last night and
reflected over a few things on my calendar in December and January I noted:
1. Jerod flying to Mexico Dec. 18th-Jan 15th
to spend college break with us (CANCELLED)- Praise God he is still with us here
in South Carolina
2. Baked Christmas goods
evangelistic outreach for our local Mexican neighbors and friends (CANCELLED)
3. Christmas party and time with our wonderful missionary team in
Mexico (CANCELLED)
4. Leadership training and encouragement to visit the churches and
families where we served our first nine years in Michoacan, Mexico from Jan
5-12th (CANCELLED)
5. Local leadership training/vision casting in Veracruz including
our missionary team, local Mexican pastors and leaders on Jan 23rd
(CANCELLED)
“Now listen, you who say, 'Today or
tomorrow we will go to this or that city, spend a year there, carry on business
and make money.' Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What is
your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes” “Instead you ought to say, ‘If it is the
Lord’s will, we will live and do this or that.’” James 4:13-15
There is one thing that the Mexicans say and it is spot on, they finish a sentence by saying, "Si Dios Quiere." Which translates if it God's will. So, just like this verse says above we all need to think more like that and understand that God may change our plans at a moments notice.
We should set goals and plan but always knowing that God is in the middle of it all and he may move us in different directions and we must be humble to accept these changes. Easier said then done but Lord help us accept your plans.
