If I were to sit down and write the things that God has been doing in my life since I went to El Salvador, I would be sitting here for days. So, instead of doing that, I will say that my God cannot be described with words. He is great, almighty, my stronghold, my strength, my courage, my hope, and so much more.
Romania, El Salvador, where will God send me next? Well, He sent me to Missouri. Exciting, I know, but people here need God just as much as anywhere else in the world. This summer I am doing the work assigned to me by the Lord Jesus, by doing Bible Schools and camps. God is continuing to grow me.
In the meantime, I would like to share the many things that God is teaching me. I hope that you will be encouraged, and somehow God can use me to minister to you.
It is my eager expectation and hope that I will not be at all ashamed, but that with full courage now as always Christ will be honored in my body, whether by life or by death. Phil. 1:20
Acts 20:24 says, "But my life is worth nothing to me unless I use it for finishing the work assigned me by the Lord Jesus—the work of telling others the Good News about the wonderful grace of God." Yes, my life is worth nothing, unless I am using it to spread God's Word. Whether it's to Romania, El Salvador, or next door, this is what I am to do.
Willing to Go
I'm just a girl. I have nothing from me that is worth giving to anyone else. However, I have been given something. God gave His life for me. He is my Redeemer. He is my friend. Since He gave so much to me, I must give my all to Him. Part of that is telling others about what God has done for me, and what He wants to do for them. I'm just a girl. Here am I, Lord, Send me.

Thoughts from those wiser than I...
"We talk of the Second Coming; half the world has never heard of the first." -- Oswald J. Smith ***
"Go, send, or disobey." -- John Piper***
"'Not called!' did you say?'Not heard the call,' I think you should say.Put your ear down to the Bible, and hear Him bid you go and pull sinners out of the fire of sin. Put your ear down to the burdened, agonized heart of humanity, and listen to its pitiful wail for help. Go stand by the gates of hell, and hear the damned entreat you to go to their father's house and bid their brothers and sisters and servants and masters not to come there. Then look Christ in the face -- whose mercy you have professed to obey -- and tell Him whether you will join heart and soul and body and circumstances in the march to publish His mercy to the world. -- William Booth***
"The 3.5 billion unreached people on earth would form a single file line that would stretch around the equator 25 times! Can you picture 25 lines of Christless people, trampling endlessly toward hell? Let that vision stay with you day and night." - Larry Stockstill***
"There is something wonderfully misleading, full of hallucination and delusion in this business of missionary calls. With many of us it is not a missionary call at all that we are looking for; it is a shove. There are a great many of us who would never hear a call if it came." - Robert Speer
