Welcome to India

Well another day brings another journey with the Lord.  This day just so happens to be an actual journey and I'll be going all the way to India!  I'm excited to see what God is doing across northern India as well as Bangkok and to see what part He would have us play in that.  It's one of those things where you really don't know what to expect.  Even though I have many friends who told me all about it and have been there or even lived and grew up there, there is still that aspect of the unknown.  We are always prepared with the Lord.  Greater is He that is in me, than he that is in the world.  I know He's going to bring Himself a lot of eternal glory through this trip!

I'm excited to put the few Hindi phrases out there and see if they understand me :)  I will have to leave off the last one I learned, however.  My Nepali friends came over last night to wish us well before heading out and taught me how to say "will you marry me?" in Hindi.

It's neat to travel with three of my good friends over there for the sake of the Gospel.  There's something about serving Him in community that really brings pleasure unto Himself and strengthens us.  Even when Jesus sent out the 72 in Luke 10, He did so in multiples of 2.  I am also going with the prayers and financial backing of many in FL, GA, MS, VA, TX, AR, MD, and more!  I consider you all just as much of this trip as those of us who are going.  Partners for the Gospel.

For His Glory
