The road ahead; I can only see my next few steps


I took this picture in June. It is a Forest Service road about 15 miles up the Gunflint trail. It is a good picture of my life right now. The road in only visible for a short distance - As we raise support to be career missionaries we don't know who will partner with us and who won't. The foliage is green and rich - throughout this process God is very faithful in his provision for our needs-we are past the 50% mark so far. There is a sign post - we are oriented to our place - we are were God has right now and he has given us direction. There is a road - our way has been prepared for us.
I have posted this picture and these reflections because I have recently quit my part-time job and I am currently diving in to support raising full-time. It is a step of faith and at times feels a little foolish to be giving up a good job in a tough economy, but I believe it is what God is calling me to do. Please keep us in your prayers as we discover who God has prepared for us to partner with.
