Brand New Tears
Who would have thought when I left my cozy apartment in New York City it would lead to all of this? Believe it or not, I didn’t set out to start a ministry. I set out to obey what I believed to be the leading of the Holy Spirit. I was a school teacher content in my job with summers off. There was no reason for me to disrupt my life to come to Paris but for following His voice.
I could be anywhere, doing anything but I have chosen to do the one thing I have no control over, obey God. That is the only thing that matters. And with that I am headed to Portugal. It’s a new adventure, a new team and a new life. I am giving myself to be full-time in missions. It’s time for me to be fully committed to the work of the Holy Spirit.
I called this blog, brand new tears because that is what has been happening! It’s a brand new season and I have wept as God has again put me in a place of building and starting again. I am allowing God to expand my capacity as He expands BARN. I am stepping into all sorts of new things and it is both scary and painful. But God is with me and I am taking comfort in this new season in the fact that He is with me.
