April 26: God at work.

God is definitely at always work and EVERYWHERE! We might not see it but we can trust him. In my life God is doing a lot of work. Right now I feel like he is molding me and shaping me into a better woman. He is helping me with patience, not only with people but in the sense of having to wait for something. He is teaching me how to react to ugly circumstances in a better, christian way and to include him in my everyday struggles. Also, he is giving me the strength to wake up every morning at 5:30 am to pray. I want to create a habit of starting my day with prayer but it is REALLY hard for me to wake up (so whoever is reading this please pray for me!). But I am taking the challenge because I want to grow.
In my family, God is driving us closer as a family. In my church, God is touching the hearts of people with missions. More people want to be involved in missions and it is just because and for Him. In my city and in my country, God is creating a greater need for Him and this is providing ways for us as christians to spread his word.
God is at work everywhere and the things he does are amazing.

Carla! That is so wonderful. I love to see how God is molding you and that you recognize areas in which you can grow. Not all young people are able to do that. It is a beutiful thing when a young woman surrenders herself to God's will and has that true heart of service. That is an area that I myself have been working on in my life and it can be hard sometimes. Good job!

Carla, I will be praying and I will start my days with prayer for you (although, I am a few hours behind you in Seattle)! I can't wait to see what God does in you and through you on this trip.
