A Plea from an Empty Athens...

I don't have a lot to say tonight, rather...I have something to ask of you--namely, your prayers. The reality and gravity of this RUF internship that the Lord has generously laid before me is beginning to sink in. So is the reality of having to raise more than $26,000 over the next 3 months.

The money is not my concern. I have no doubt that God will provide above and beyond what I will need. But I want to ask you to please pray that the Lord would draw me close to Himself, and renew in me a heart that by faith runs to submit itself to His will and rests in His sovereignty. I desire to go about this support-raising and training process in a way that humbly reflects honor and glory to Christ and looks to Him for strength. But truth be told, this semester has worn me out...physically and spirtually. So I guess what I'm saying is that I sense a deep need for faith and perseverance for this next big step in my life...and I would certainly appreciate your prayers, Thank ya.


"If anyone serves, he should do it with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ. To him be the glory and the power for ever and ever. Amen." -- 1 Peter 4:11
