Peparing to Leave...in 60 Days!

Things have been going pretty well on my end of things. The Lord has been confirming in my heart more and more every day the call that He has on my life. I am to spend it in the field, working in the Harvest and advancing His Kingdom. I pray the He would give me the grace I need to accomplish the work He has prepared for me to do. I know that He will, for His faithfulness continues throughout all generations. My anxiousness about raising the money I need is completely assuaged in the light of the faithfulness of my King. He has been telling me alot lately, "Katelyn, I am faithful and true. My purposes will be accomplished in the earth. Wait on Me believe that I will bring to pass everything that I have both promised to you, and asked of you. Let My strength be your strength." And I am realizing that in the past I have thought of faithfulness and known that my own ability to be faithful is so weak. But His faithfulness is not dependent on me! It has been one of those, "oh...right...I think i knew that, but I needed the reminder," moments.

I am so thankful that he is faithful to complete every good work He begins in us. This goes far deeper in my own life than fund raising to be able to go on the mission filed. It has to do with the core understanding in my heart of the character of my Lord, of my Father. And as He draws me deeper into identification with Him, I find myself in absolute awe. He is able to keep that which I have given to Him. For indeed, it was never mine to keep in the first place.

Please pray for me as I enter this next sixty days. I am still very low on funds for this Global Internship. Please hold this with me before the Lord as I trust Him for His timing and provision. Thanks!

"The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases
His mercies never come to an end
They are new every morning
New every morning
Great is Thy faithfulness, O Lord!
Great is Thy faithfulness!" - my favorite hymn
