Ok guys! I leave tomorrow...ok...today if you want to get technical! LOL...but a lot of people have been asking me where I will be traveling to this summer and so I decided to post my shedule that we were given.
Tentative Schedule:
June 8-15 Columbia, SC
June 15-29 Summerville, SC
June 29-July 3 Chesterfield, SC
July 3-July 6 4th of July break
July 6-13 Elgin, SC
July 13-20 Laurens, SC
July 20-July 27 Lake City, SC
July 27-August 1 Little River, SC
So there you have it folks! My schedule...well at least that is the rough draft. I mean when someone says tentative then it is like the disclamer...meaning that these dates are subject to changing so be flexible! LOL!
Anyways...I am super excited to see how God is going to use me this summer! I am ready to be a beacon for His light to shine through! I will need all of you who read my blog to please just keep me in your prayers! Also I would like you all to pray for all the other missionaries on the field this summer! Pray that they will let God use them and that they will stay safe! The devil is going to start trying to hit us all hard so that we can't go on doing God's work...so also pray for strength for all of us missionaries! Just pray too that God will prepare the hearts of those who we are going to come in contact with this summer...and that they will have an open mind and an open heart! Also, I was at youth group tonight and it was open mic night...meaning that anyone could get up on stage and share how God was working in their lives or just give words of encouragement, etc....and pretty much they are all just trying to seek God and stop living for the world and start living for him! So if you guys would just pray for them and for perseverance so that when the hard times come, and they will come, that the devil wont be able to push them down...b/c the closer you get to God the more of a threat you are to the devil and so he will try to bring you down more and more!
I like this verse:
Romans 12:2
"Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind...."
If you aren't living for God....the Perfect, Holy and Loving God who created you, then who are you living for??
Yourself?
We are flawed people by nature! Romans 3:23 says,"...for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God..." This means that no one is perfect and that we all make mistakes...but God is sent His Son to die on a cross to bear our sins! He die for you and me!
Why not give all your troubles to the amazing all powerful God of the universe! Die to yourself and start to live again in Him! He died for you...and all He asks is that you live for Him!
Anyways...as a last remark, ask yourself...are you so on fire for God that the devil knows your name?
Check ya later,
Eleni
