\"\"<\/a>It’s\u00a0been nearly a month since I was reinstated as a member of NTM. I remember the first time I became a member and started this Partnership Development<\/em> thing. I was a few decades younger back then and it was called Deputation<\/em>\u00a0in those days. I also had a husband who was pretty much the one responsible to figure it all out. But life has changed. My husband has been graduated to glory, so this time round it’s been left up to me—or so it would appear on the surface.<\/p>\n

That means I’ve been busy. While continuing my full-time job for now, I’ve been working on various projects in my spare time. The prayer card shown above was one of those projects, along with a ministry booklet and a display banner. Then there was a first prayer letter to get written and sent out. Of course, there have been meetings to get lined up and friends I want to spend time with while I’m still here. That’s the stuff that’s been left to me. The surface stuff.<\/p>\n

The rest is up to God. He knows I need a team that will pray for, encourage, and support me—and He’s already begun raising up these special people. \u00a0Touching hearts to pray for me and to send encouraging notes and phone calls my way—God specializes in things like that. So yes, the surface stuff has been left up to me and I’ve been having a fun time with it. But the stuff that really matters, like touching hearts, is God’s department. I’ll just leave that up to Him.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
