Where are we going? Where are we serving? Is Doug ready? Am I ready? Yikes, is anyone here starting internship ready? The unknown, is just that unknown. Only God knows whats in store for us, but dang, it’s hard to “wait and see”. <\/p>\n
What if they don’t like us? What if we don’t like them? What if their rich and snooty? What if their poor and needy? What if their healthy? What if their sick? What if they abandon us? What if they overwhelm us? What if, what if what if?<\/p>\n
This type of thinking is ridiculous. After all only God has those answers and we wont know them until we get there. So why do we keep asking that what if question? I think it’s because we have no control over the answers. However, we do have control over the outcome. <\/p>\n
For anyone who has to do an internship, they must have many emotions. We do, and this is just a church. I wonder what a doctor must feel when he’s taking his first patient. I’m sure they ask themselves some of the same questions I asked above. I’m sure it’s like that for adoptions as well. So what’s the best way to handle these’s questions? Believe it or not, you go back to your bible.
\nPhilippians 4:6 says “Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.” (New Living Translation) when you give to God, you will have comfort in knowing you will be okay.<\/p>\n
But since most of us are control freaks, we can’t stand not knowing. Anyway, Wednesday is the BIG day, yes tomorrow. Please help me to pray for all the interns and their families. Stay tuned to find out our church location.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
