Good morning
from a sunny & warm Cochabamba!
It has been a
busy & Spirit filled time with the congregation at Florida Norte these past
few days, and it is a true gift to be here once again. I’ll admit that I was
nervous I had over committed myself when I felt the Lord calling me to both
Jackson, MS and Bolivia this summer with only two days in between the trips. I
figured two days would give me enough time to get some sleep, do laundry and
repack my clothes into my suitcase, and get some grocery shopping done. Well I got two out of the three tasks done, but just couldn't make it to the grocery store. As I got on the plane
Wednesday morning headed for Bolivia, I was exhausted. I had no idea how I was
going to rally for another 10 days away from home. I was also not prepared for
all that I was supposed to be sharing with the congregation at Florida Norte. I
began praying on the plane for strength, energy, peace, and preparedness that
could come only from the Lord—and He answered!! I very clearly heard him say
“Kerry where you are weak, I am strong and you may not have all the words to
share with Florida Norte yet, but I do.” It was difficult, but I had to fully
put my trust in that and let go of all my anxiety, stress and fear.
I have had
the opportunity to lead a devotional at the women’s group and share a message
during the young adult group. I am not sure I have ever felt the Lord’s
presence as strongly as I did speaking to the young adult group on Saturday
night. God is reminding me that when I fully trust & rely on Him, He is
going to do great things!
Thank you
for your prayers, and for being senders. God is good!
-Kerry
