The past 7 months have been a time of testing,
a time of growing,
a time of stretching,
a time of waiting on God and wondering how He wanted to use us.
We, as a couple, definitely like to minister as a couple,
but at the beginning of our ministry change,
it seemed that only separate ministries were offered.
Hubby was preaching once a month locally.
Hubby was supporting a men's prayer meeting.
I was singing in the choir and playing the piano again.
I could paint during the week.
I could paint during the week.
We kept waiting on "together" ministry.
God laid one in our lap.
A chance to be hands-on in helping a missionary launch out.
And it involved getting out of our comfort zone.
And it involved just saying "yes."
There are times when God reminds us that though we are not ministering as WE planned
(how presumptuous that is),
(how presumptuous that is),
we can help in many ways as a couple because of our situation and stage in life.
And we are excited ... and looking for the next thing to say "yes" to!
