What do I know of Holy?

Hello Friends,

It is good to be back able to take part in this enjoyable meme. Thank you to all of you who have been so gracious to uphold me in prayer over these last several weeks. Your prayers have been felt and have made a huge difference.

Life has really taken me on an adventure over these last few weeks. I have spent a great deal of time giving presentations about Romania. I have also recently received an offer to join International Messengers full time speaking to churches and traveling to Romania once or twice a year.

God works in mysterious ways. I am afraid to speak in front of people, yet God continues to set these opportunities before me. For years a number of people have been encouraging me to consider speaking full time. I would always think, “there is no way I could do that.” I am small, I’m weak and I am afraid of people. Now I can do nothing more than surrender this to God and say, “not my will but yours be done.” Your prayers would be greatly appreciated as I consider what God may have for my future.

Now on to this week’s song- I discovered this song this week and just had to share it with you. I find that it puts who I am in light of God into beautiful perspective. It is very humbling. “Make sure you have some sacred space when you watch it - you’ll need it.”



Humbled by Him,

Melissa

PS. Does anyone know if peggy is still hosting the meme Mission 4 Monday? I saw something posted about it before I left for Romania, but I was unable to take part in it in the midst of all of my preperations.

Hi Melissa,

She is still hosting Mission4Monday, just spending less time on the internet. This song is beautiful!
