God's Plan

Are you kidding me, Jesus the king of the universe wants to use me, a plain old sinner that is so broken, praise God!! I am so humbled and honored to go and serve our brothers and sisters in Serbia. What a growing process to have to fully rely on God. I think it is so funny as soon as I opened my heart to God through prayer and tell God I'm down for your plan I am then asked to go out of the country the very next week! Our Creator is a funny guy, so full of surprises.
I know he has a mission for us all and I am so excited to actually be obedient and surrender to my Savior and take part on His plan. I get it now when He says in John 10:10 "...I have come so they may have life, and have it to the full".  Now is the time to bring others to Christ at home and other countries. Then we continue on building  Disciples who will then go on and do the same. Mathew 28:18-20 says, "Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I will be with you always, to the very end of the age."" This is also called  "The Great Commission" and it's stating what God's mission is for all of us who believe. This does not just mean pastors at the church, but all of us who surrender their lives to Christ.
Please pray for our team heading to Serbia, that we may have a boldness that can only be from the Holy Spirit. Pray that we will not be side tracked from the sin of this world. Pray for the people of Serbia that their hearts will be prepared for what God has in store for them. Last pray for our families that God's peace will comfort them when we are gone. Blessed is all I can say to have a wife that is in full support of God's calling on my life.
