I have taken many steps in my life. More than anyone can count. The most important steps in my life though have taken place most recently. I have taken a step to believe in God. I took another step. This step was a bit bigger. I answered His call to apply for this trip. The next step I took was second nature and that was saying yes to fully commit to raising money, packing up everything for two months, and fly to Africa with complete strangers. Every step that I have taken have led me here. AFRICA! Kenya to be exact. This step has changed all my future steps. If God wants me to do something totally crazy, then I will be willing to say yes.Saying yes can change such a small thing, or it can do something ginormous. It is all up to you if you want to take that first step; He will lead you the rest of the way.
Psalm 1:1-3
How happy is the man who does not follow the advice of the wicked, or take th path of sinners, or join a froup of mockers! Instead, his delight is in the Lord's instruction, and he meditates on it day and night. He is like a tree planted beside streams on water that bears fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither. Whatever he does prospers.
People always asked me."Why Kenya? America needs help too." My answer, "I don't know why Kenya, I just know that God called me here and I said yes." This is still my answer. I know God will lead me to where I need to be and if that is just to one person to be saved, this trip is worth it. I just have to take the right step to lead me to where I need to be. Isaiah 6:8
Take a step, it could lead you to His peace and to places you never thought would be possible.
