Trusting in my faith is hard to do. I'm sure it is hard for everyone, but I find it really hard at times. I am the type of person that likes to be in control. I have trouble giving that up at times even though I pretend to myself that I have given it up. I mean, we all do it. We say that we are going to trust the person in charge of the project, but we feel that we can do it better, or they are not doing it fast enough for you. Then you slowly start to take over little things, then before you know it "POOF" you have control. We are meant to work together for the God of others. This may mean that you are not in charge and you are learning how to follow. This is a good lesson to learn.
So this 2022 mission trip has me on edge. We have not done medical clinics in 2 years! And this year we are starting back up with them. We would love to have clinics every day, but we are only having a total of 4. My concern is, as always, enough medical staff to run the clinic. I know I am beating this drum over and over, but it worries me. I want to give the very best for the people in those communities because they really need it. But I also want to give the best care and take the time to show them God's love. But God always pulls through. We may run out of meds, we always are able to get more. We may have a lot of people show up at the end, but find a way to see them all. Some may have to go to the hospital, we find a way to get them there.
You can have worry, fear, uncertainty when God calls you to step out of your comfort zone. That's normal But trusting in your faith is where we stand apart from others. This is called courage. We know God is beside us. He will give the words to speak, guide our hands and knowledge for us to have wisdom to care for them.
I am excited and July will be here soon! This is my calling and God is growing me in all the planning and prep for our trip and every time I go I see God more and more.
Bendiciones,
