One of my good friends is giving me the opportunity to be part of a Globalx team to East Asia this spring. Today our team of six women will meet together. We all know each other. Most of us are already friends. This trip will be not be to work at the orphanage that Danny, Noah and I went to the the last two years. However, I believe I will be able to see friends there.
This trip will focus on our partners in EA, praying for them, listening to them, assisting them in planning for their upcoming work. I know God is going to teach me something powerful about prayer this year. My first response to this prayer trip was, "We can pray right here! Why would we go half way around the world to pray? Shouldn't we be working?" The immediate response to my question didn't come from me. "Am I not the One doing the work?" Wow!
I know the answer lies largely in the untapped power of believing prayer. God sometimes draws my attention to the fact that I am not really believing the prayers I pray. I am learning that it is impossible to please Him if I am not asking with confidence. Kind of a waste of His time isn't it?
Do I believe He can do what He says? The impossible? This trip to EA is going to teach me something about His power.
