Today, I move 6000 miles. Today, I enter a new stage of life. Today, I pursue this new work the Lord has undeniably set before me.
In 2 days, I will arrive at my final destination: Hillcrest School in Jos, Nigeria. To teach, to counsel, to learn, to testify, to live and love.
But ultimately, to glorify His Name.
I have one prayer for these next few years (however many years the Lord may call me to Western Africa): that the glory would be to Him, and Him alone.
To Him, and Him alone.
But we were made for community. We were created as a Body of believers. And though I am leaving the physical presence of this community, entering into one still new and unknown, I cannot do this alone. To my friends of faith, I seek your prayers. I seek your support through spiritual intercession. I cannot do this alone.
I will do my best to keep you updated along the way, to allow you a window into the new world the Lord will be showing me through these coming months. And I would love to hear from you along the way as well.
“Look at the nations and watch–and be utterly amazed. For I am going to do something in your days that you would not believe, even if you were told.”
(Habakkuk 1:5)
Amen. Let it be so.
