Amazing
How did I get here?
As I lay here in my top bunk listening to some of my roommates quietly snore, I remember when I first laid eyes on the New Tribes Bible Institute sign just over a month ago. Before my trip to Wisconsin, I was putting my full faith that this is where I was supposed to be in God. I had very limited information about New Tribes. I saw a list of their classes and my brother recommended it and that sold me. I didn't want to spend money to visit in the summer before I started. I didn't really have any questions for the deans at the school. I was just ready to be there before I scared myself out of it by thinking about all the changes too much (Which I have done before). The anticipation during the summer when I knew I would move in August was covered up by counting down the days left with my dearest friends and family. That was going to be the hardest part. Leaving everything I am used to behind. Starting from complete scratch. Going from having so many people I was close to, to not knowing a single soul. And it didn't help that I had a 17ish hour drive to think about all of that and how crazy I was to pick a school 5 states away from my family. But deep in my heart, I felt at peace. And when my little trooper of a brother (who drove the entire way) pulled up at the bottom of the school and my eyes found the New Tribes Bible Institute sign, my heart was overjoyed. I turned into a little 4 year old girl. Nerves were running wild, but more than that was sheer excitement for a new chapter in life. I normally wouldn't have chosen to move 17 hours away from my comfortable home town where my family has lived for the past 36 years. I made a choice to leave a very solid foundation. I had a very good job that I could have moved up in pretty easily, a loving church home that I have poured into and that has supported me, my family all there for me. I would like to think I would do something this "adventurous" on my own, but honestly that's not my personality. That part of me is all God. I really like being comfortable in my own place that I know very well. I really really like knowing what to expect in pretty much every area. If you know me, you know it takes a decent amount to stress me out. But when I don't know what to expect, I am on edge and get stressed out. So by no means was this move an easy decision. Yes, it was a fairly simple decision, but not easy. But I knew that "God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think," had more in store for this little Georgia girl (Ephesians 3:20). I truly believe He has so much more in store for every one of His children than we could ever imagine. And some of us have pretty crazy big imaginations. "When someone has been given much, much will be required in return." Luke 12:48 This verse has helped shape the way I see life so much. These words help me keep my focus on my job here on earth. I have been given so so much. Because of that, God will require much of me. When I give my all for Him and believe that He can do immensely more than I can ever think, then why not move just over 1000 miles away to spend two years dedicated to learning about God? It is such a small sacrifice compared to the whole picture. So yes, I was nervous and scared out of my mind to make this change. But yes, I am beyond thankful that God sovereignly guided my every step and is continually teaching me something new about Himself, His Word, His people, or even myself. Not for one millisecond have I regretted following this path. "To him be glory forever."
What skills do you have that God would use in you playing a part in reaching the unreached? There are ample opportunities to jump in! This is a snippet of a newly released video about a couple that are doing just that, using their skills.
