Okay...so I wasn't really that nervous before. Then I began to get nervous while I was packing. Now that our team is back together and we've spent time meeting, talking and praying I feel I am ready to board that plane!!!
We've discussed how insignificant we are and how we can't do anything on our own (therefore anything and everything good we do on this trip will be from CHRIST alone.
We've discussed how we serve an all-knowing, amazing, always faithful, never failing, beautiful, and merciful, Creator & sustainer God and how much we don't deserve to be saved, but we are because He loved us THAT much!!
We also discussed how we need to and should want to share that amazing love with others. We didn't don't deserve God's love but because He has lavished it on us, we should be more than willing to share it with others out of love for them and for God.
We've discussed how we are the aroma of Christ and that whatever we do and wherever we go we should leave behind the sweet aroma of our Savior keeping them searching for more and looking past us to the Lord!
Finally we prayed together with another team from Masters who leaves today to India! It was a wonderful prayer time! Everyone shared prayer requests for home as well as for their trip. We all took turns praying for each other, lifting each other up to God and praising Him for all He has done and what He plans to do in us and through us in these next 2 months!! By the end of our prayer time, a precious peace from God wrapped itself around my soul and I was truly ready to do "all things through Christ who strengthens me" (Philippians 4:13)
