"... Once our eyes are opened, we can't pretend we don't know what to do. God who weighs our hearts and keeps our souls knows what we know, and holds us responsible to act... "
--Proverbs 24:12
These are incredible words when you think about them. I stumbled across these earlier today and was amazed.
Ever since Charlie and I had the idea of going on this trip, a few things held us back at first... the money issue, timing, and all that. But we KNEW what a great opportunity this was for us. To go and love on these orphans was something we were called to do... and once our eyes were opened to this, we couldn't go back on it, He held us responsible, no matter what happened. We had trouble at first with our trip and for awhile we weren't sure what to do or if we should even go through with it, but we couldn't turn back. Something inside me kept saying that I needed to go. When it looked rough at times with the money situation, we stuck it out, and through God I've raised pretty much everything I've needed for this trip. With all that being said, it's just amazing to see how God works, and how Charlie and I saw what we needed to do, and we're doing it... no turning back, even if we wanted to:) I can't wait for this amazing trip, and to see what God will do for all of us while we're there.
Anyways... there's my little excerpt for the day... :) Until next time...
