Proverbs 16:9 "In his heart a man plans his course, but the LORD determines his steps."

Hola mis amigos! Okay, I apologize for the overdue update- how easily we can slip into trivial, mundane tasks instead of Kingdom work...Romans 7 is a very real Christian experience. First of all, I came home on March 8^th, which was in the plan because I was in my friend's wedding. I was supposed to return to the Dominican Republic on March 22^nd, but I did not. I am currently waiting to go back to the Dominican because the government is now cracking down on visas. In order to stay without a visa, you can only be there ninety days at a time.As a result, I have to wait so that when I go back, I will not overextend the ninety day period. In the mean time, I am working at a bakery and helping with the ministry’s website. Along with that, I am figuring out details for next year, which turned into a much larger project than I was expecting. It looks as though right now I will be going back to the Dominican Republic May 12^th and staying with another missionary in La Romana for a little while. Lord willing, I will then return to MGM my last month there. I thought I would put this post up quick, and add more thoughts later. But, I have to share that although I was disappointed that my stay was shortened, I am absolutely in awe of God's sovereignty in all of the change of plans. In order to make things concrete for this upcoming fall, I have had to do so much research, meet with so many people, pray, make a lot of phone calls, pray, do some more research, and so many other details I won't bore you with. I have accomplished so much this past month that would not have been possible had I been in the Dominican Republic. I would have come back to find I was in a real mess and probably make poor choices due to a lack of information. I stand amazed at God's omniscience, sovereignty, and faithfulness.
