On my Heart

Today we celebrate my birthday....my wonderful husband has asked me time and time again what I want. My deepest desires are 2 things...to have my boy home with us and walk out the calling of serving on short term mission assignments. Last year I was able to celebrate my birthday serving on the mission field with the ARMS team in the PI.

Even though I'm not getting neither of these today, I know that they are happening this year. I'm bursting with so much emotions and at some moments I want to cry, others dance with joy and then at times lay out straight before the Lord. The update about our adoption process is that we are still waiting to file the I-600; please continue to pray we get those documents in soon. The other desire will be coming out officially in the next week or so but I have been given one of the greatest opportunity with a wonderful organization and I'm very humbled!

So I just wanted to share these lyrics with you and youtube video because its been in my head from the moment I woke so I know God is saying something to me.

Send Me I'll Go by William McDowell
Send me I'll go,
I'll go to the nations,
So the whole world will know,
Your love and compassion,
The harvest is ready,
Your people are hungry,
To know you,
Give me a heart to hear the cry,
Help me to see things through your eyes,
That we can bring healing to the broken,
When we speak the words that you have spoken,

How will they hear unless we speak,
You are the only one we need,
How will they know until we go,

Here's the video...I hope it ministers to you....

Today there is a heaviness in the air. So what do we do.....WE FIGHT not physically but in the spiritual realm!!!

As I began to pray this morning...I was reminded of this verse....

"For we are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places.

 Therefore, put on every piece of God’s armor so you will be able to resist the enemy in the time of evil. Then after the battle you will still be standing firm. Stand your ground, putting on the belt of truth and the body armor of God’s righteousness. For shoes, put on the peace that comes from the Good News so that you will be fully prepared. In addition to all of these, hold up the shield of faith to stop the fiery arrows of the devil. Put on salvation as your helmet, and take the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
Pray in the Spirit at all times and on every occasion. Stay alert and be persistent in your prayers for all believers everywhere." Ephesians 6:12-18

And then someone reminded me of this.... "Let us hold tightly without wavering to the hope we affirm, for God can be trusted to keep his promise." Heb 10:23

Armed and Ready for battle....in the end GOD WINS!!!!
