calling, studying and God’s will: a prayer request

As we travel this journey, our calling changes, as did mine two years ago. God moves us about in His Kingdom in amazing ways.

Not long ago I was urged to enter a program to do further professional study toward a doctor of ministry degree. In consultation with those who know me and provide me with counsel, I was urged to pursue this possibility. The study toward this degree and the collaboration with others in the same program (who also work in the field of global outreach) will clearly be a furthering of my work as a leader of Christian Educators Outreach. I am enthusiastic about this possibility but am keeping in mind that “All things work together for good for those who love the Lord and are called according to His purpose.”

A committee, who will decide whether or not to allow me in, will meet later this week. So, I ask you to pray that this committee will hear from God and do His will.
