What Am I Doing??
“I will preach the Gospel, I’ll die and be forgotten, as long as You get the glory. The harvest is ready, we have to go, we won’t stop till the whole world knows. The power in Your blood, to save every soul, we’re not ashamed of the Gospel.” -YWAM Kona Music
Hello friends and family! I hope this letter finds you well. I find myself constantly listening to many songs like this (along with scripture lol) as a reminder of why I’m here. My thoughts recently have been a revolving door of “What on EARTH am I doing??” When things get hard, or I get discouraged I must remind myself that I made a choice. A choice to be here and start this program as obedience unto the Lord. To be trained and equipped to fulfill the Call. The harvest is ready!! May I be eager and diligent in my studies and service to propel me into the field.
By the grace of God I was able to move to a city in Orange County called Yorba Linda to take the next step into the Mission Training Program (MTS) at my church. Through this program we participate in classes to prepare us to understand, teach, and live out the Word. We also have culture classes, finance classes, and many other things to equip us to go overseas. It is expected that we serve regularly in the church and generally be an active member. Despite the early mornings for church set up and late nights in class the Lord has been reshaping my perspective and my heart for service. When I view the responsibilities I have in the program and the ways I am asked to serve as worship unto Him, my heart shifts. It is no longer a burden, but a blessing. I’m so incredibly grateful to be here. My mind feels like a sponge and I’m humbled greatly by all that I’m learning and feel so grateful to learn under the leadership here.
MTS 2025
These are the other students that I’m learning alongside! There’s a combination of 1st through 4th year students.
While I’m in this program I am still in college! My trajectory was always to graduate in December of 2025, so the Lord aligned it really well so that I could move forward with this program. I’ll be graduating with a Bachelor of Science and am so excited to cross the finish line. Balancing school and this program has been difficult, so please pray for me as I navigate this last semester!
“For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory that is to be revealed to us.”- Romans 8:18
To think that I've considered the trials I’ve experienced these past few weeks as “suffering” feels out of touch because I am surrounded by blessing upon blessing. Just like Paul said, none of this is even worthy to be compared to what the Lord has in store. So I won’t bore you with the inconveniences I’ve had or discouragements due to my impatience upon the Lord’s provision. Rather I want to redirect those thoughts. The Lord is teaching me and stretching me in so many ways, revealing the priorities of my heart. It can feel discouraging when things don’t go as planned or the weight of the call feels overwhelming, but our God is so good. I continually rest in the reason I’m here and decided to step into this for the Lord and the lost. I encourage you all to constantly combat these thoughts and feelings with the Word. The Enemy will try so hard to deceive you; to make you question the call that God has on your life. Let us be bound by scripture so we never miss that still, small voice!
There are many exciting things in store as I continue in this program. One of the most common next steps to work towards are vision tours! This is where you go to a country where you feel the Lord might be leading you for a few weeks or even months to see if that is where the Lord desires you to be or to see a country that you already feel called to. If you feel it on your heart to partner with me, it would be the greatest blessing as these opportunities present themselves. For now, I will be pressing into what the Lord has put in front of me. If there is anything specific that I can be in prayer for, please, please let me know personally or through this email. I love you all so much!
Till all know Him
Dani
