Mutating Missionary

God does not send us into the dangerous and exacting life of faith because we are qualified; He chooses in order to qualify us for what he wants us to be or do." Eugene Peterson

Loving God in the Moment

OUCH! Ahhhh!

tunnel vision

It is what I get sometimes

yesterday afternoon i called and talked to a friend from the US for about an hour and a half. i usually can't catch her - so talking to her was a pleasant gift from God.

Don't worry, calling to Germany from the US is expensive. Calling from here to the US is only 2 cents a minute! Dang Skippy!

I digress

she was so good to me
we prayed
i vented about some of the frustrations that i am dealing with in a foreign country, i.e. some of the ways God pushes and prods me!

And then she said exactly what I needed to hear.
"You know roro, He is a big God and if He is calling you into _______ He is bigger than that circumstance. He will be there with you."

Now, how old am I?
How long have God and I been strolling down this path together?
I was absolutely astonished at how relieved I felt to hear this truth that I KNOW!

Isn't it wonderful to be in a body. A body that has no physical boundaries. A body that pinches itself and says, "Hey... remember... HE IS GOD - you can relax!"

I'm glad that I have friends that do that.
even in a foriegn country
on the side of a mountain

Or walking down a cobble stone street or beside my neighbors fairy tale cottage...
looking down...
not up...
I'm thankful that I can get a reminder that God is way bigger than my circumstances
Ahhh
Looking up again
Walking IN HIM
until I need a good pinching again.
loving the body of Christ
as fallible as we are
glad I'm here

    A little about me

    I am in the world almost every day. Okay, daily.
    Are you?

    I am called to be salt and light.

    A few days ago, one of the waiters at the local diner that I frequent in the wee hours of the morning shared some very personal information. I looked as she opened up her heart with her pitcher of coffee poised in her hand, ready to pour - but not pouring. She held it as if it were a shield. The longer she shared her heart the lower the coffee pot dropped. And finally when she asked me my thoughts, the coffee pot sat beside me on the table. We talked. We laughed. We shared our lives and our thoughts. It was a time to shine a little light and sprinkle a little salt.

    Are you finding places that you meet people searching for the same things?

    I have been a commissioned missionary. I left the foreign mission field in November of 2014. Now I am a home missionary. Not commissioned by an organization. Commissioned by Jesus.

    Life is a mission field. I was a missionary in my classroom as a teacher before I left for the foriegn mission field. Before that I was a missionary with my family, neighbors and even in my church. I was a missionary from the moment I accepted Christ as my Savior at age 7.

    So are you.

    We are mutating missionaries.
    I'm blogging about the experience. Wanna join me?
