The beauty of humanity is that we were created in Christ's image...unique, special, called, full of purpose...but will we ever live up to the purpose for which we were created? The answer lies within our obedience to and dependence on Christ!
I am so amazed at the turn that my life has taken..
It takes a challenge for me to become who he wants me to be...yet I am ready!
I am so glad that I was blessed to travel to another country bringing the good news of hope!
Dominican Republic was so amazing! The people that received medicine, food and the word were so happy and fulfilled.
The children that so eagerly came to learn about Jesus and who he is were so grateful that we gave them even the tiniest bit of attention, care and love.
The altitude of which we stayed in the mountains came with a more than breathtaking view!
This was the trip of a lifetime for me, and I can honestly say I am praying about the opportunity of an extended trip in missions!
At this point, my life is not where I thought it would be, but God has been steering the boat and as long as he is in the ship I am in peace!
(Thank you Lord for your continued guidance. I am amazed and proud of who you have shaped me to be, I know that this journey is a long and hard one but, I will follow as you lead me, I promise! Love your daughter, Melissa Ivette)
