Good Morning Friends & Family,
I just had to send on this little Monday Morning thought and pick up your week. I read it on Henry Blackaby’s website. I have to tell you, this is exactly what I have been thinking and feeling for a while. Read on and BE AFFECTED!
And just as a reminder, please keep us in prayer as Yong and I prepare for a Kenyan adventure.
Blessings!

Now the LORD had said to Abram: "Get out of your country, From your family And from your father’s house, To a land that I will show you." (Genesis 12:1)
The most dramatic changes in your life will come from God’s initiative, not yours. The people God used mightily in Scripture were all ordinary people to whom He gave divine assignments that they never could have initiated. The Lord often took them by surprise for they were not seeking significant mandates from God. Even so, He saw their hearts, and He knew they were trustworthy.
The Lord spoke to Abram when He was beginning to build a nation dedicated to His purposes. Through this nation would come the Savior. God appeared to Moses at the very time He had purposed to deliver Israel out of slavery in Egypt. God found in Jesse’s youngest son David a godly man who could lead His people. God surprised Mary when He told her she would be the mother of the Messiah. God’s Son selected the twelve disciples, all ordinary, uneducated men, when He was ready to take the good news of His salvation to the world. Through the ages God has taken the initiative in the everyday lives of people to accomplish things through them that they never could have imagined.
The Lord may be initiating some new things in your life. When He tells you what His plans are, trust Him and walk closely with Him. Don’t let the busyness of your present activity keep you from experiencing all that God has in store for you. You will see Him accomplish things through your life that you never dreamed were possible (Eph. 3:20).
