As my daily devotion time, I'm going to write, instead of read someone else's, daily miracles. My hope is, that by doing this, I will enrich my journey and awareness of God in the little things in my life and also encourage others to do the same. I encourage you to share your comments and stories of things that you encounter along your journey.
Blessings,
Jennifer

Relief Camp

After a great day of spending time celebrating my son's birthday, I came home and decided to do some work on the upcoming mission trip. I have everything in my head, but wanted to get it written down. After getting all of the travel arrangements down, the participants, and some other random plans, I started wandering around the internet. As I mentioned the other day, I felt led to go to Rockporte very recently so I am behind on the official details. I know there are lots of work opportunities and places setting things up, so I haven't been worried. I have learned that when we are led by God to go somewhere during our mission trips, He also provides all the details. And, when He does, it's way more awesome than I could plan! So, I have been working and listening for God to direct me.
So, tonight I was randomly looking at places online to see where they were organizing volunteers. I came across a few places but nowhere that jumped out at me. I saved a few spots, but didn't message anywhere. Then I came across another one. It was a facebook page and I decided to message them, knowing they were closed and I would not hear anything until next week. But, I was wrong. They immediately messaged me back! They have work for us, a place to stay, and will provide food for us! How awesome is that?!
So, it gets even more awesome! the place we are working for is a place that was started by a family who wanted to help. So, they started a relief camp on their property. We will be able to work with the people and talk with the people who need help the most! We will be spending the week alongside the people we are helping!
I will call them Monday and get more details and confirm everything, but it seems like it's going to be an awesome week! It will be a new experience for all of us!
So, where was God today? Of course He was in the celebration of my amazing son. Then, He was in the details of our mission trip!
Blessings,
Jennifer
