Only Believe

We had our official orientation for our missions trip last night. We have 17 going to Ecuador at the end of May. Our team is excited and a little apprehensive at the same time. Most of them have never been out of the United States. They do not know what to expect and rightly so.

I can remember my first missions trip to Kenya, Africa. I can remember my apprehension. I can probably say... fear. It's scary leaving your comfort zone, but God didn't call us to live in a comfort zone. God has called us to live and walk in faith. My prayer for my students and adults is that they would know what it is to have faith in God and at the same time share it with the world.

God is in control of our lives. Don't be afraid. Only believe (Mark 5:36).
