My two months in the states is rapidly drawing to a close. What a bittersweet thought. But, being here didn't go anything like I expected. I had been hoping to visit Living Alternatives and figure out exactly what Cristina and I should be doing in the next few months. After thinking through everything I've learned, we're still on square one. When I get back to Colombia we'll have to spend a few weeks just praying and talking over all the possibilities. It's how it should be though, because it gives God room to guide.
I also had hoped to map out the ministry budget and know where we would be receiving our income for the next 6 months at least. But that didn't happen how I expected either. I thought a a couple of places would commit to give a lot long-term, but not so in God's plan. Instead I've had many friends and relations help little by little. And that has been doing many things for me. It keeps me first of all dependent on God, but it also makes me so much more grateful. Having people I know believe in me enough to give and to pray, that's spiritual support that I couldn't have received from anywhere else. God is amazing at providing what we didn't know we needed.
