I’m one brave man.
Or so the women around here {any many others} call me.
Before moving into my current role, I managed all the shipping for our women’s events. This also meant that I’d travel to those events… and be one of just a dozen or so guys {and many, many women}!
It was the very last place I expected to serve, but isn’t that how it goes? Proverbs 16:9 says, “In their hearts humans plan their course, but the Lord establishes their steps.” Oh, what truth that statement holds.
I was about as unsure stepping into that position on Oct. 1, 2011 as a rookie skydiver would be jumping out of a plane, but the Lord has just been incomprehensibly faithful to me.
His goodness has weaved itself throughout my time with all these women this year, and – for that – I am thankful. The teaching, the community, the memories … have left such a defined mark on my faith journey with the Lord.
Now, I press forward into the unknown {this new position}, trusting that it is He who determines my steps. I’m just to be faithful and obedient.
