I would never have thought that
when God called me to missions He would make me wait 4 years before
sending me out, let alone sending me out to the NATIONS! I am traveling to 11
countries in 11 months this year through The World Race and so far it has been
more than I could have ever have dreamed of! God is SO GOOD!
The Lord had said to Abram, "Leave your country, your people and
your father's household and go to the land I will show you. "I will make you
into a great nation and I will bless you; I will make your name great, and you
will be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I
will curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you." ~ Genesis
12:1-3
Psalm 67
"May God be gracious
to us and bless us
And make his face
shine upon us,
that your ways may be
known on earth,
your salvation among
all nations.
May the people praise
you, O God;
May all the peoples
praise you.
May the nations be
glad and sing for joy,
For you rule the
peoples justify
And guide the nations
of the earth.
May the peoples praise
you, O God;
May all the peoples
praise you,
Then the land will
yield its harvest,
And God, our God, will
bless us.
God will bless us,
And all the ends of the earth will fear him."

"Jesus looked at him and loved him. ‘One thing you lack,' he
said. ‘Go, sell everything you have and give to the poor, and you will have
treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me." ~ Mark 10:21
"But whatever was to my profit I now consider loss for the sake
of Christ. What is more, I consider everything a loss compared to the
surpassing greatness of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have
lost all things. I consider them rubbish, that I may gain Christ and be found
in him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but that
which is through faith in Christ – the righteousness that comes from God and is
by faith." ~ Philippians 3:7-9
"For I am convinced that neither
death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future,
nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation,
will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our
Lord." ~ Romans 8:38-39
