This verse has been strongly impressed upon me this semester as I continue my biblical studies and begin my classes for missionary aviation at Moody Bible Institute Spokane; I realized long ago that I can do nothing in my own strength, not to mention going through the toughest flight school for missionary aviation in the world! So it is by God's calling, provision, and grace that I am here.
When I began this semester, I came to Moody Bible Institute Spokane on a wing and a prayer, literally. As I boarded Southwest Airlines and flew north. I had, on that day just a week before classes began, only a third of the funds needed for this spring semester: I prayed hard, knowing beyond a shadow of doubt that God wanted me at Moody. Purposed to stay out of debt, I began looking for a job, only to have one divinely given to me - a teaching position at Moody for self-defense. The stipend I would receive for teaching the classes would cover the amount needed for my tuition for this spring semester. I am still in awe of God for providing this job for me. The provision came just as the need arose - my God always comes through!
My heart is to see the love of God shared with every person, everywhere; I want to use my passion for flight to honor God and to serve others. There is no greater joy than to love and to be loved: whether this means overseas or here in America, I desire to be a giver of love, a giver of joy, and a mouthpiece for God.
My passion for flight increases everyday, along with my anticipation of this fall, when I am to start Aviation Maintenance Technology (AMT) school year-round. I am excited beyond words to watch and wait upon God as He makes my way straight before my face. I am confident in the hope that where God calls, God supplies. And He is never late.
Now, with mid-terms approaching this week, I ask that you would pray for me, especially for focus as I strive for excellence in my classes this semester.
Though the cost of becoming a missionary pilot is heavy, I have faith that God will provide; I am answering His call and going forward in faith. If you would like to partner with me in reaching my dreams, please don't hesitate to contact me; more details coming soon.
