A Strong Refuge

"The Lord is good,
a strong refuge when trouble comes.
He is close to those who trust in him."
Nahum 1:7

It was after this verse that I titled my blog. It is a powerful reminder to me of who I serve, and where my strength lies. As I reflect on my previous TREK experience and prepare for the next one, there are things I look back on that I plan to do exactly the same, and there are things I would like to do differently. In this past year I’ve learned, grown, and matured. I want to take the things I have learned and really seek to apply them in this next stage of my life. But whatever goals I may set for myself, whatever I succeed in and whatever I fail in, I know that at the core of everything is the Lord. He is good. He is my strong refuge. I seek my refuge in him and him alone, and I choose daily to trust in him.

Prayer Requests:

- That God would help me to be diligent in my studies in the next two months.
- That God would prepare my heart – that he would give me the attitude of a humble learner and that I would be ready to receive what he has for me.
- For full financial support before the beginning of training, and for the establishment of a committed prayer team (if you wish to support me in one of these ways, please see below for further details).
- For God’s continued blessing on MB Mission, and thanks for the work he is already doing through that organization and all their long and short term missionaries.
