"The pathway is broken
And The signs are unclear
And I don't know the reason why You brought me here
But just because You love me the way that You do
I'm gonna walk through the valley
If You want me to
Cause I'm not who I was
When I took my first step
And I'm clinging to the promise You're not through with me yet
so if all of these trials bring me closer to you
Then I will walk through the fire
If You want me to
It may not be the way I would have chosen
When you lead me through a world that's not my home
But You never said it would be easy
You only said I'd never go alone
So when the whole world turns against me
And I'm all by myself
And I can't hear You answer my cries for help
I'll remember the suffering that Your love put You through
And I will go through the valley
If You want me to."
Recently, my plans for the summer have changed drastically. Originally I was going to be serving internationally this summer through the BSU. However, due to unforeseen circumstances, I will no longer be going to Mexico. I am absolutely stunned and right now, I cannot see what God has planned. This is especially hard for me to deal with while I'm overseas in London, without my family and friends around. I know that God will place me exactly where I am supposed to be, and I trust that He will be glorified whatever the circumstances. I'm really excited about seeing where He places me this summer, whether it's in summer missions or working at home or in a church somewhere.
Please pray for all of us here in London. We're reaching a point where we're really tired and we're ready for a break from our hectic schedule. I'm still loving London so much, but I'm ready to go to bed before midnight. Pray for our chance to share Christ with our families that we're staying with right now. We have one more week here at homestay, and it's hard to be witnesses to our families sometimes. Pray that we will take advantage of every opportunity to turn the conversation to the One we believe in. Please pray for the BSU and the summer missionaries as everyone's preparing to serve and for the summer missions banquet. Pray in expectation that God will provide all of the funds necessary to send everyone willing to go. Thank God for the overall good health conditions of my classmates and me right now. It's such a blessing not to be sick.
Finally, "I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, will have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge--that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God." Ephesians 3:17-19
