Sorry for leaving you all hanging, here is an update on my plans. Enjoy!
"For I know the plans I have for you says the Lord…"
God has a plan for each one of us and it takes us giving up control and follow God recklessly to really find that plan.
As you all know, I am doing my best to follow God's leading back to the Logos Hope. Over these last months I have been raising support with plans to leave for the ship in November. It is now November and I unfortunately do not have enough support to leave as planned. I need a total of $1200 a month and I currently have $789 a month commited, which means I still need $411 a month.
I was getting extremely stressed out about my support and it was weighing quite heavy on my shoulders. But someone helped me realize that it is not a matter of now or never, it is a matter of finding God's timing. It was becoming clear that it wasn't God's timing for me to leave in November and that was something that I needed to accept and move forward having peace about.
God has given me peace and shown me that he wants me here at home a couple of months longer and that he has purpose in it. I see now that it is important for me to have a bit more time to build a better foundation here at home with my church and my community. It will also be a blessing to spend Thanksgiving and Christmas with my family again before I leave.
I truly believe that the Lord is working out his plan and he is just asking me to give up control and follow him recklessly. At the end of the day I know that if I am following him he will lead me and in turn I have nothing to worry about.
Thank you all for sticking with me on this journey and supporting me and praying for me. The journey is only beginning and I hope that you will all continue to join me through it all.
I would also ask you to pray and consider supporting me financially, I still need $411 a month in order to join the ship in Spring of 2012. I truly need the help of my brothers and sisters to make this possible. Please pray.
In love,
Krysten
