You are so right about that, Laurie! I’m really glad He doesn’t, because with the Holy Spirit’s empowerment we can do tons more than we ever dreamed we could.

Good luck following your “flashlight” in your journey.

Bev,it’s great to see what God has allowed you to experience! God continues to show me how His strength can be perfected in my weakness. He’s an awesome God and I’m grateful to be involved in what He is doing around the world.

I believe it’s when we are called to push past OUR limited limits, that’s when God has a chance to step in an move in miraculous ways. He simply calls us to step out in faith. Seven years ago I helped found a Christian school in the enemy’s backyard in the Middle East. People thought I was crazy. Now, 7 years later, we have 80 beautiful children (most orphans and destitute children) receiving the love of Christ and the hope of an education. God doesn’t ask about our ability, just our availability.
Blessings

Thanks Rebecca. It’s amazing what God reveals when we press into Him, regardless of our years on the journey.

I do hear God calling me to push past my self-imposed limits. We envision small and cramped when he is offering us the whole, open field!
