are there some areas of your life which you allow God to lead more than others? tell of a time you followed God's lead into unfamiliar territory.
let me take you back to a year ago, after the earthquake in haiti hit, it was tragic. firefighters for christ was putting a team together and danny (my husband) was going. it all happened really quick yet all worked out perfectly and peacefully. i think it was one of the most memorable times in my life were i KNEW and UNDERSTOOD and ACCEPTED God's lead. God prepared danny for haiti in less than a week=he got all the time off work, he got his passport in a day, he got all his shots and medications and he got all the money to pay for the trip. it was so affirming to me that God had control. firefighters for christ really had no set plan of where they were going to stay or how they were going to be used, there motto was to just show up and be used and they ended up being used in incredible ways. some said to us how could danny go to haiti he has you and three kids to care for what IF something happens? well when God has a plan He lets no one stand in the way. now, back on the home front i was preparing for my husband to be gone for 10 days with no contact (his cell phone would not work there), take care of my 3 kids who were all 5 and under and celebrate our daughter tatum's 3rd birthday. i knew that i had to let God lead me for these 10 days or else everything would end in disaster. i could not do this on my own strength, (why is it i ever try to do things on my own? that always puzzles me). as you can imagine God took the reigns and i followed close behind and everything worked out perfectly.
