I first got all my clothes out that I wanted to take. My goal is to fit all of those into one suitcase. Well, I got a majority of them in one. When I take the time to roll them up and do it more neatly I am hoping they will all fit in one. (I guess in a real test packing I would actually do that but that takes WAY too much time!)
I need to keep my eyes focused on Jesus. I know that He has called me to Haiti, and I know that He will provide. He has always been faithful in my life, and He will continue to be. I need to hold firm to the promises of His goodness. When thoughts enter my head that are from Satan I need to combat them with Truth.
"And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.For those God foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers and sisters. And those he predestined, he also called; those he called, he also justified; those he justified, he also glorified. What, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all—how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things?"
Romans 8:28-32
God,
Without you I am nothing. Thank you for showing that you loved me by sending your son to die for my unrighteousness. I am daily overwhelmed with your grace and mercy. Help me truly believe that when I confess my sins you forgive me and wash me white as snow. Help me to fall more in love with you. Show me that you are enough for me. I pray the things I know in my head about You would connect more deeply in my heart. Help me know that I am never alone. Carry me in your love.
Your Daughter,
Jill
