When the Lord first put this book on my heart, I kept ASKING Him...How do you want to use me for your purpose? Is this really what you want me to do for you? I have no idea what I'm doing! Who am I that you would give me this mission? The answer I RECEIVED was always a resounding "YES!"
We ASKED Him about the ministry, what will we even do? How will we effectively minister to those you have called us to serve? People questioned us: What are you even going to do? We RECEIVED the answer in our hearts loud and clear: "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways submit to Him, and He will make your paths straight." Proverbs 3:5-6
We SOUGHT the Lord first... we didn't have a plan, we just trusted that HE DID and that He would be working through us to accomplish everything that HE wanted to do. What we FOUND is that anything we could have attempted to plan in our own mind or try to do in our own strength was not what He had in mind. We FOUND that He already had the ministry's direction planned out. We SEEK Him daily, and we always FIND the path for our next steps.
Each day, we KNOCK on the door of God's heart; we show up for the work He wants to assign us. Each day, I have joy in my heart when I stand at the door of the Kingdom of God and wait to see what will be behind the door for the day. Each day, the DOORS OPEN to behold bigger ways to impact lives, greater work that will produce lasting fruit, and more purpose to direct our paths.
The path to OPEN DOORS starts with simply ASKING:
God - How do you want to use me for your purpose?
2026 has started off with much excitement in ways that only God could have planned. Each day has presented the opportunity to expand our reach with increased fervor, and we know that He's just getting started!
