Today is the the day!

My emotions are soaring rather high, there are butterflies in my stomach, and I am so excited to be stepping out in faith as I pursue a dream, my dream and desire of doing mission work abroad.  I am honored and privileged to be working with such an awesome mission organization Camino Global, and team in Colombia.

Over the past several months, I have seen God work in so many ways, from providing ministry and prayer partners, to places to stay while I wasn't working, to a buyer for my car and a car to borrow.  It's been  such an amazing time watching God work and being a part of that and I am looking forward to seeing Him work in and through me in Colombia.
Today, I set out for that adventure, God willing all goes well as the airport.

Many years ago I came across this song from a group called 4Him, called Who You Are.   This song reminds me that, in my life, I want to honor the Lord, glorify him in all I do, and I can't do that with out Him.  He is constantly changing me and bringing me closer to Himself.  So thankful for the Fathers love and that He holds me in the palm of his hands, guiding me and keeping me close to Him.

Who you are
When I see the sun
Coming up in the sky
When I see the stars
In the still of the night
Then, I, I see who you are

When I feel the breath
of the wind in my face
I rest in the warmth
of a Fathers embrace
Then, I, I feel who you are

And who you are
Is all I ever want to be
Take my life
Make what you will of me
'Cause your constantly changing my heart
Leading me out of the dark
And bringing me closer to who you are

I'm ready to run and I'm ready to dance
Live every moment
Leave nothing to chance
'Cause I, I know who you are

I consider the Cross
 And the Price that you paid
I know that you live
'Cause the stones rolled away
Oh I , I love who you are

Always in HIS hands!!

The Lord is trustworthy in all he promises and faithful in all he does.   The Lord upholds all who fall and lifts up all who are bowed down.  The eyes of all look to you, and you give them their food at the proper time.   You open your hand and satisfy the desires of every living thing.   The Lord is righteous in all his ways and faithful in all he does.  The Lord is near to all who call on him, to all who call on him in truth.   He fulfils the desires o those who fear him; he hears their cry and saves them. Psalm 145:13b-19 I don't know about you, but I find great joy in reading the scriptures.  Over the past couple weeks I have really enjoyed the Psalms, the fact that there is so much depth to them and that many of them have spoken right to my heart.  The verses above, I read today.  I was sitting in El Bosque Parque reading and just soaking up all that the Lord has done in my life.   I am reminded that the Lord ...

His Love Will Never Fail!

Enjoying a girls afternoon! Dear Friends, One year ago, this month, I left the states to be a missionary, a desire the Lord put in my heart a long time ago.  I left for Colombia, South America and a short time later, I moved to Costa Rica to study Spanish.  Living in Costa Rica is amazing.  From the sunny days and cool evenings to the people I meet and have the opportunity to pray with and share Christ with, I couldn't ask for anything better. And I am thankful to stay for a little while longer.  You read that correctly.   I have been given the opportunity to continue to study Spanish (which I am so thankful for), build relationships and live life here sharing the Gospel until... the LORD knows!  Flexibility is the key...   Proverbs 19:21 says,  "Many are the plans in a person's heart, but it is the LORD's purpose that prevails."   The  LORD  is directing my steps a little d...

The adventures of Mini-Pete and Pals!

Exploring, climbing, hiding, is what we, Mini-Pete, Charlie and Tiger enjoy doing.  We've had some great adventures...Before we begin...let me officially introduce ourselves. The yellow lab- that is me Mini-Pete,  Tiger is in the middle and Charlie is the German Shepherd The journey of Mini-Pete just began with me, years ago traveling by myself.  However a year ago, I was told you need a friend to travel with, so Charlie came on board.  Charlie and I both came from the same home- so it was nice to catch up after several years and it was very kind of Shelly to give us both to Kimia.   This is Kimia-an adventurous, fun and loving person. The fact that she takes two little dogs and tiger with her about every where she goes..tell you that she is young at heart . You see, Kimia is quite adventurous and we really enjoy traveling with her.  To be honest, you never really know what your getting into until you spend a lot of time with her...Once...
