leaving this month
i can't believe it is almost time for me to depart this most beautiful state. time has been going by so fast and i can't believe this is the month i will be leaving.i don't know if some of you know but i was having problems with getting my visa which has been a big challenge for me. immigration will randomly select people to get a medical backrounds and i was one of them that was selected which delays my visa and costs me money that i don't have. i have a friend who applied the same day and she has already received her visa which is a little disheartening. since hearing that she had received hers and i haven't received mine, i was sure i wasn't going to get my visa. i started planning other options without trusting God but relying on what i know to be true.
i was starting to get excited about these other plans and then i was reminded by my other family to stay strong in what God has called me to do. He has called me back and He will provide! I emailed the base where i will be going and they said from the time they receive my health information it will be 2-3 weeks...which means that i would most likely get my visa the day before i am scheduled to leave. man!! that really makes it so i have to rely on God and not myself.
"Look to the Lord and HIS STRENGTH; seek His face always."
ps 105:4
pray with me please that God would provide me with my visa and that all my finances will come together.

renee- i love that even though you occasionaly falter, your faith in god is so deep and rich. you always remind me that god is in control and that he loves us, thanks for that. i am praying that your visa will arrive soon and that god would provide for you in ways that are amazing. it's only in the times that we deperately need his provision that we get to appreciate it fully. one time when i was traveling with that drama team, our van broke down in Nebraska and we didn't have enough money to fix it so we had to sleep in a homeless shelter for the night and just wait for god to provide, the next morning we had the exact amount of money quoted by the mechanic in our money bag. god is good and i think he loves to come through for us in those times. be strong. you are loved so so loved.
renee' when you were over today i just was going to ask you about this...i thought the same thing....if you know without a doubt this is Gods will then he is not going to not provide the visa...its all in His time :) He is just preparing you!!! i love you and am praying for you ~krista~
hey friend - i understand where you are at...wasn't too long ago i was dealing with the same thing. you are meant to be here. i'm praying for you...perry
