Packing up our booth at Southern Missouri Assemblies of God Ministry Network Conference Wednesday afternoon I received a tiny but very significant to me message from the Lord. He knows me well. He speaks in ways that I hear.
Dove dark chocolate with almonds is my favorite, but I rarely buy them. I want to maintain a healthy weight and I don’t want to spend the money for it. It’s a treat. I bought some to share at our conference booth. Just as I finished packing the last of our materials I opened one of the remaining chocolates to eat. The message inside read, “It’s your call.”
This is the Lord’s way of reminding me that I am indeed called to serve in Micronesia. We are headed in the right direction.
I am reminded of the Dove dark chocolate with almonds message I received from the Lord in 2012. (This is not a regular occurrence.) Interesting that those significant messages of confirmation both at the very beginning and the near end of my time in Warrensburg came in the same manner. In the beginning He said, “You are exactly where you are supposed to be.” He said it right after my then 6 year old Aaron had been bitten by a bug and had asked why we came here and had stated that this was a dangerous place. Now as I near the end of my time here the Lord says to me, “yes, this is indeed my leading.”
I confess. Sometimes I wish the Lord would paint his direction boldly on the wall. Even so, I feel loved and seen when I hear His gentle whispers of I’ve got you and I’m right here with you on this journey of life.
To the Ends of the Earth
