New Mexico Mission Trip-Day 1
Well, we all got to New Mexico!! Most of us met for devotions at the airport and then departed on different planes destined to Albuquerque, NM. After many hours on the planes and in the airport waiting, my kids couldn’t wait to hit the pool. They said it was freezing!! Good, better to swim some laps. Mom is ready for them to burn off some energy for sure:)
We met another mission trip from Pennsylvania headed this way in the Dallas/Fort Worth airport. They are also from an United Methodist Church and were headed to a Methodist mission in New Mexico. I sat beside one of their youth on the plane and found his story interesting. He attended a church of 100 but met one of the youth from the other UM church that was taking the mission trip. The youth asked him to go, though he lived one and a half hours away from their church. He accepted the invite and there he was, flying all the way from Pennsylvania to New Mexico without really knowing anyone from their church. What a testimony!! I truly hope Christ moves in a big way in his life this week since he has already stepped out in such faith.
It is truly beautiful here in a different way. The mountains…wow. God’s glory is evident here!
Seeing Life as a Constant Flow of Divine Experiences
It’s funny how life gets so full so quickly. One day you are merely going through the motions and the next your trying to keep your head above water. Since the day I became a Christian, God has miraculously lined up my life to be full of Divine Experiences. The problem is that I don’t always recognize them as such at the time. No, I usually look back and think, “Duh, that was a God Thing!”
This is my journal of things discovered, pondered and realized. Whether it’s about church, home education or family, all things truly do work together for good for those who are faithful. God is alive and working….just keep your eyes open.
