Trusting and Planning

In the last few weeks I've been struck by how little I trust. I'm a planner by nature, so I like to know what will happen -- yesterday. With any bit of spiritual stretching and uncertainty I whine and listen to fear. But the Lord reminded me recently that we were not given the spirit of fear, but of power, love and of a sound mind. (2 Timothy 1:7) So I've been given the freedom to seek God's will, plan with a listening ear and trust Him to take care of me even though I don't have control of the timeframe.
Please continue to pray that God would provide the necessary support for both India and Spain. I've been blessed so far and He is faithful.

I chose this picture of Rebekah diving into that water in the Pyrenees because I took a leap of faith -- literally! -- from the height into the icy-cold pool below. I've always been afraid of heights, but in that moment I was allowed to conquer a bit of that fear. 
I can trust the Lord with heights. I can trust the Lord with my life. We serve the sovereign God.
