Brave


Before I gave Hanalei the book, I wanted to read it.  That is how I found myself reading the picture book So Many Days in my bed a month ago.  A children's book seems like a funny way for God to speak into my life, but hey, why not?  For the last several days before that cozy night in my bed, I had been wondering if I was brave enough to move to the Dominican Republic.  [Could I really make it?  I'm not a strong person, I will surely fail and crumble.]  I wanted to ask someone if they thought I was brave enough to go on this adventure.  Sure enough, as I began to page through the book, God started answering.

I might not be "brave" enough for this crazy move, but God is bigger than any of my fears.  Enjoy the book, Hanalei.
