So there is a little less than a month left before I go to France. God is doing many things to prepare me for this trip. Today is actually Easter. Praise God!! Without today, Christianity would mean nothing. We all need to be thankful for his sacrifice. John 3:16, an amazing verse says it all. "For God so loved the world, that he sent his only son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish, but have everlasting life." This weekend God showed me that even what we think is solid, is not solid, unless it is firmly established in him. I had the opportunity to see my best friend this weekend, but God decided to show me that its not what he wants for me right now. I think I need to be more focused on what God has for me today. I know we tend to look into the future, but what is the future? God could take away our life in a matter of seconds, he could take away the life of the ones we love in a matter of seconds as well. Our plans in life are nothing in comparison to what God has planned. It's funny that I try to argue with God when he wants me to do things. This boy, which shall be left undisclosed, was recently reavealed to me by God. He is in love with God and really has his heart in the right place; however, he is my friend and I fought with God for about three weeks, telling him that I didn't want to like him, but that I didn't want to lose the friendship that I have with him, or make it awkward. Wednesday, my friend and I talked and we're both on somewhat a similar page. It's amazing how God has slowly revealed things to me.
France...I've written out my testimony. I finally bought a dictionary...I have a book that I'm going to read until I leave...And I'm only missing $400. Wow, God is amazing. Continue to be in prayer for the people that I will be talking to. There are riots right now among the people, pray for my protection, I'm not worried, but I think my mom is! Thank you so much for your support. Don't be afraid to leave comments. Knowing you're praying for me is such a great encouragement.
in him,
Rachelle
