Abundant Blessings

Aloha, Katie here! I know we've been a little MIA lately, and I apologize for that. These past several weeks since we last posted have been a crazy, unexpected, blessing-filled whirlwind. I can't wait to tell you all about it!

There are so many things I wish I could share with you, but the most important right now is this: Our God is awesome and never changing. He has plans to prosper us that a lot of times do not line up with the plans we have for ourselves. But even still, we will prosper if we follow His plans for us and if we surrender ourselves and our lives constantly to follow Him wherever and whenever He asks us to.

There is unimaginable blessing that comes from following an all-powerful, all-resourceful, ever present God. I'm not talking about physical or monetary blessing, although God has unlimited resources and will provide for every need, if we ask, according to His will.  The blessing I speak of is the blessing of everlasting, eternal life in the presence of the Father. Is it not of more value to devote our lives to serving Him and spend eternity with Him than to be settled in one place, be financially stable, and comfortable in this life? I'm not saying by any means that it's wrong to be settled, financially stable, and comfortable. I would love those things. But I find that sometimes, when we're too comfortable, we get complacent and it's easy to just continue our day to day lives without really taking the time to listen for God and find out what He wants us to do....what His plans for us are.

Sometimes, when we aren't in dire need for Him to come through for us, we forget He's even there. It's really easy to forget where all our blessings come from if we're not in the habit of acknowledging that we're blessed at all! If you look at your life, if you really look and think about your life every day, you will start to notice what He has blessed you with.

What a blessing it is to be used by Him for His glory. We all have a purpose. God has plans to prosper each and every one of us. All we need to do is surrender to Him, wait and listen for His voice, and then be obedient and go where He wants us to go and do what He wants us to do. It seems so complicated, but really, it's not. Not if you're devoting your life to doing His purpose. Then it isn't complicated...it's obedience.

I pray unexplainable blessings on each and every one of you. Knowing we've got an army of people praying for us on our journey here has encouraged us more than you know. Mahalo for your prayers and support!

Aloha y'all!
