This was shared in an email from Mike and Amy Yordt. They go to Rancho del Rey and were on the February 09 Sudan trip with me and also came to Sudan when I returned in October. I think Mike has been to Sudan 8 times. I am so thrilled to report that they are becoming full time overseas missionaries and will be moving to Tonj in September! I am really excited to have them here. Please pray for Mike and Amy as they fund raise and have a million things to do before leaving the US in four months. In an update, they shared the following which was a particularly encourage message to me as I struggle to be flexible:
We recently read something that Pastor Chuck Smith wrote in one of his commentaries about “plans”. He said “You need to be ok with God disrupting your plans. If you are not ok with that, then you are not living His plan, you are living only your plan.” He went on to say that if we were to truly embrace God’s plans for us every day, we would live much less disturbed by the changes that invariably happen to our plans. When we say to the Lord “your will be done, not mine”, we need to be ready for our plans to change! We are experiencing this truth and trying to learn to be flexible with our plans changing. God is so good to all of us, and He wants the very best for each one of us, so Lord, help us to remember that truth in the midst of change!
