In our devotions/prayer times, DH and I have been feeling a more than gentle tug towards missions. We finally discussed it with eachother,(funny we both felt it at the same time), and we talked it over with our SP a couple of weeks ago. We told him that we do need to wrap up a few legal problems we are currently having with custody of one child, and we also told him we do not yet know what our specific mission call will be. Obviously, my strength is pro-life work and it is something I love, but I am not certain that this will be OUR MISSION. SP said to join his dicipleship training class, and to keep listening for God's instructions which he says WILL come when God is ready to give them. More and more, as mission trips come up, i almost resent being tied to my job. I know that we serve God wherever we are, but more than anything, I want the freedom that comes with full time missions. In other words, if we did not have to worry about expenses, he and i would be free to go almost anywhere in the US we were needed, as long as medical care for our sick child was available. We wonder what he will have us to do next, and we are waiting....but not patiently. Help...Lori
