Happy New Year everyone! It's been a hectic few weeks and Costa Rica is coming up next week too so there's a lot going on right now. I feel like after the Costa Rica trip, everything will slow down a bit. It's still important for me to stay focused and keep praying and reading though.
Jan 2: Joshua 21-24
There's been so much going on lately and I haven't been able to devote as much time as I want to on my readings. It's normal and expected around this time of year but still not a good excuse. Spending time with family Christmas time, spending time with friends, meetings for Costa Rica, going snowboarding yesterday(awesome but so sore today) it all adds up and takes up time. During our last Costa Rica meeting last weekend, we were talking about how Satan can distract us right before going on missions and at that time I felt pretty focused, but in the past week I've been hindered by everything going on. In my reading today though God lifted me up: "the Lord your God fights for you, just as he promised. So be very careful to love the Lord your God."
I need to be very careful this week and be prepared for anything that can distract or hinder my preparation for Costa Rica. I feel encouraged that God fights for me though and will help me stay focused on what's important. Please pray for myself and my team and the kids in Costa Rica if you have time as we head out Jan 11th. Thanks everyone.
