Where does one start a blog like this? It feels sort of like standing on the edge of a pool at the beginning of the season...boy, we want to swim - but it's going to be cold!! Gotta just JUMP IN. So here we go....
I can't begin to tell our story without celebrating our God who has
written our story - every word! up to this moment...and who is
continuing to write the next chapter as we take prayerful steps of faith
into an unknown realm of life and become volunteer crew on a ship off the coast of west Africa with an organization called Mercy Ships...
Our God is so good. so amazing. so worthy. That He CARES about us and CARES about what we do with our lives is incredible. We are indeed privileged to be His sons and daughters...to know that we are His. what freedom! what joy! what an honor!! To know that He has plans for us - each of us! and those plans are GOOD. There's such security in trusting His plans...in not having to figure it all out on our own...in not having to have all the answers about why and how and what's next...
That's what this blog will be...a tribute to our God and the plans that He has for us. A testimony of what HE is doing in us, through us and all around us - for now, that story will center around our adventures as we join the crew of the Africa Mercy ...but who knows where the story will go. He does. I'll rest in that.
