Changes

Never choose to be a worker for God,

but once God placed His call on you,

woe be to you if you

"turn aside to the right hand or to the left".

Quote by: Oswald Chambers

From: My Utmost For His Highest

It was a cold day in February, 2011 when I received a call from an unfamiliar

phone number, I was at work but I decided to quickly answered the call

and see who wanted to talk with me.

I was greeted by a business man who introduced himself as Merv Sommers,

with International Faith Missions.

He went on to explain that somebody gave him my name and phone number

and suggested he call me to find out if I would be interested in moving to Haiti.

I was speechless.

I had been praying and seeking Gods will for my life but I was planning on going to college

for medical training, not moving to Haiti.

By the end of our conversation I agreed for him to mail an application to me.

I had a trip planned in a few weeks so while traveling I filled out the application

and dropped it in the US Mail in San Diego California.

It was easy to see things were changing in my life,

by this time I knew if my application was excepted I would move to Haiti.

As time went on I began preparing to make a huge move in my life,

and I committed to move too Haiti.

The move was not easy but God gave me strength

for every minute, of every day.

He never left me sit alone, He always carried me over the rough ground.

It is only eight short months since I received the first phone call from IFM

and here I am making plans to leave Haiti and move to Michigan

to work in our USA office.

Living in Haiti has been a wonderful time of growing for me

and learning to trust God even in the smallest things of life.

Please pray for me as I work in our USA office.
