I feel so blessed to be a child of God. To have a Father, who is the creator of heavens and earth, is an amazing privilage and honor. I love my Father and I know He loves me. Because I love Him so much I want to please Him. I want to honor Him. I want everyone to know how Awesome He is. I have seen His love and goodness many times in my life. He has really shown me how much he cares by providing for my everyday needs, answering specific prayers, and it is all according to His will.
I pray the Lord's prayer very often and I really mean it. I want His Kingdom come and His will be done on earth as it is in Heaven. I also say, "Lord I want to fulfill your purposes for my life. I want to do what you want me to do. I want to be where you want me to be." I know if I do God's will I will be the happiest and the most fulfilled.
I have been thinking more and more to return back to my home country. 5 years ago it was not even an option for me. I did not want to. I have lived in America for almost 11 years. Many times I thought it would be great to become an American citizen. Now, I have the opportunity to apply for a green card and stay here, but I am asking, "God, is that what you want for me? Do you want me to stay here and work with Bridges International, which can be good and comfortable or do you want me to return to my home country which can be hard and uncomfortable?" The question should not be what is better for me, the question is what does God want according to His will. Because I am follower of Christ, because I belong to God, because my life has a purpose in Christ, I need to always consider God's will.
So now I am asking and bringing everything under the Lordship of Christ. I want to do His will and I want to make His name great among all peoples. Because I want God's will to be done in my life and I know God wants the same, I don't worry about what will happen. I can see God's hand in the situation already. Him and I are walking together in agreement that everything will happen according to His will and in that I have full assurance. I will not be dissapointed.
