8/6/2012

So today was a bigish day for us.

We are in Marlette staying with my parents and going to Brown City camp...and Robert is commuting back and forth, not doing much of the other two.

However,
He did wake up today with 3 voicemails, and throughout the day received a few more, and so far has 3 interviews lined up for this Friday, so more updates on the job search coming soon.

My neck of the woods has been a bit more exciting.
God has been wanting me to take an altar call as a sign of my complete surrender to Him, except I wasn't taking this lightly and wasn't exactly obeying. I knew this was going to be a switch in ministry time and wanted to make sure I was fully prepared to completely surrender everything to Him. Well, Thursday came, and I didn't take the altar call, Friday came and it was the same result.

Finally over the weekend God began really working on me, to the point that today (Monday) I was completely restless. So I went to Brown City camp with the one goal in mind. The altar call.

I was completely restless the entire sermon, which was really good. It was about missions. Well hey, quite fitting for the day that I had officially decided that nothing was going to keep me from doing the altar call.

I was one of the first ones down to the altar, shaking my way down. (I really don't like people looking at me). and as soon as I hit my knees peace rushed over me. I knew God was pleased with my act of obedience...even though it took me long enough to get there.

This nice random lady, I don't know her name, came and prayed with me and asked me what to pray for and I spilled out the story of what God wanted Robert and I to do. And it was as I was telling her about what to pray for, God told me: it's time to tell people my plans. Well, at least Kim (Robert's mom).

We had a great conversation walking around Brown City camp as I explained to her God's plans for our ministry. And most of she already knew. God had been preparing her to hear, which I think is pretty sweet! But the major scope of it she had no idea about.

So tomorrow I am off to spend more time with Kim at Brown City camp. :)

With love,
Kate
