God Is Good! I wanted to share a recent series of events that demonstrates how God is working in my life these past several months. Since the last Boot Camp NW in April 2009.
So, here goes. I came back from Boot Camp in April and for about a week afterward I was experiencing some serious warfare that was really wearing my down. I posted about it back then. In any event, I met with a couple of the elder's from my church and began talking seriously about becoming involved with them in a non-profit organization called iPursuit. Knowing that this was a move in to ministry, and feeling God's calling, I engaged with them. After joining iPursuit, we began to look at the technological needs of certain regions in the world - water pump technology in the Sudan, Air Pollution in India, Human Trafficking in Thailand, etc. Back in January 2009, I also began speaking to GE Healthcare in Seattle about a global director role in that organization and was still in talks with them over these several months. As a result of looking at some potential root cause solutions for global issues, we decided to start working on a "for profit" business to act as a bridge to bring cutting edge technologies from the US, into regions in need. Last Monday we signed the final documents with the lawyers to finalize the formation of this business. Praise the Lord. Now, since just before Boot Camp, I was having some issues with my lower back and sciatic nerve pain. It has worsened over these past several weeks and I finally went in for an MRI this past Tuesday. Right after the MRI, I drove over to the church to meet with a couple friends to pray. We sat around ad discussed what it was we wanted to pray for and simply landed on just thanking God for his blessings and worshipping and glorifying His name. It was awesome - we did this for close to an hour and a half and were completely wiped out when we were done! I love that. Afterward, I walked out to my car and began to drive out of the parking lot when my phone rang and t was GE Healthcare....... my new boss was calling to offer me employment. Bigger than anything I have ever had in my life. I was so stoked. The beauty of this is that throughout my discussions with GE, I disclosed my involvement with iPursuit and this new company and said I would continue to work with them even if I took the role with GE. I figured if that was not OK with them than that was not the place that God had for me. Turns out, they are ok with the Kingdom work and are really pleased to have me coming aboard......I then found out that afternoon that I had been selected in the Lottery to attend te Ransomed Heart Book Camp in October in Colorado! Needless to say, I am emotionally drained coming into the end of this week and indescribably thankful for Jesus, His protection, Hs guidance, and His grace....... and most importantly, the Cross!
