I think my biggest struggle with this whole going to Cambodia thing is fundraising. I do not enjoy asking people for money. I don't think there are many missionaries who would put "fundraising" on their top 5 list of enjoyable missionary-things to do.
I am excited to go to Cambodia, very exited. Sarah keeps telling me to soak in the moments we have here, and it's good to hear, but I can't cure my futuristic thinking. We have a little less than a half year before we depart. Some days I find myself wishing we were only half a month away from boarding the plane.
As we are in this waiting period, there are still things unknown. Finances need to come in, we haven't done our training yet, our team is still forming, etc... This waiting period seems like a green house for anxiety and stress. Or maybe it's just my lack of trust, or a combination of the two.
When it comes down to it though, while there are a handful of uncertianies, one thing is certian. God has called us to Cambodia, and there is nothing more valuable than walking with God. Nothing can replace the value of walking wholehearted with Jesus.
Dispite my skill at being anxious, I know God will complete what He starts. God doesn't have ADHD. He doesn't jump from one thing to the next forgetting what He started. God loves to paint His pictures, making them just perfect before they are finished. He is patient and particular.
Today's post is simple. But I want to ask you, are you anxious? If so, does God just forget about you, has He in the past? Think about it.
