Fasting About RV or Guatemala

 Dear Kids, 

So today dad and I are fasting about a very specific thing. We have talked about doing RV living and road schooling for a while. But we've also talked about going to Guatemala. 

Last night when we were on a date and talking about the different options. Brent said to me, "If we all of a sudden had 3k-4k presented to us, would we still get an RV, or would we do Guatemala?" 

I thought it was a good question because we've really talked about RV the most up to this point, mainly because we have to have a good chunk of money in order to make Guatemala work. We've talked about doing RV for a bit first and then doing Guatemala. 

I said, "I almost want to make a deal with God. That if He wants us to look at Guatemala first and more serious, then let's give a timeline of how and when to present 3k-4k. It would have to be in the next couple of weeks. It would need to be a miracle, but I believe that everything that is happening in our lives are parting the waters for the Lord to do His work in our lives."

So we decided to fast today about this specifically. We aren't sign seeking, we are just in the place where we want the Lord's involvement very specifically. This is an air situation for us and our family and it is moving us forward in what God has for us to do. We told God that if He wants us to look at Guatemala first instead of an RV then He needs to present 3k-4k on or before June 20th. If it doesn't come, then we are moving forward with the RV. 

The phrase that keeps coming from my patriarchal blessing is "God will be using your talents and gifts in His worldwide kingdom, in establishing the government and administering in the affairs thereof." We have worldwide missions in our lives and that means we need worldwide perspective. 

I also know that this is parting the waters for Brent and the value that he has to add to the world. He is spending most of his time with his career in providing. I have been praying FOR A WHILE NOW that God will give him the career, opportunity, or project that will make his MISSION in this life come alive. I need God to do this for him.

I love you kids, 

Your Mom
