A New Adventure


As Tara and I have come back to get ready for the semester to begin, the new adventure of being the campus director is starting to set in. With large group meetings to plan, leadership training to think about, Bible studies to plan, and many other details to coordinate; the feeling can be a bit overwhelming.

I was reading in Isaiah and thinking about this new adventure and responsibility that we are stepping into and felt peace that our Lord would not leave us. God will be right there, in fact, He has already gone before us and behind us to make the way for us.
Isaiah 52:12 says,

"But you will not leave in haste or go in flight; for the Lord will go before you, the God of Israel will be your rear guard."

How awesome is that?!
Tara was telling me that she similarly was reading in Isaiah 41 and felt a peace about this new challenge and adventure.
Isaiah 41:10 says,

"So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand."

Tara and I are excited to step into this new role and adventure. We ask that you would continue to pray for us, for strength and continual renewal by the Holy Spirit.
