I am glad I brought my tablet with me this time! Big, unexpected things have happened today!
5/10/19: It looks like Amanda has received an answer. She came to see me this morning to share where she feels God is leading her. Clint, I, and five of her siblings believe she is making the correct decision based on what she's shared and our family's observations. Thank you so much for your prayers on that. Please keep praying as she prepares to go where He is leading.
Update 5/14/19: Amanda asked me to pray with her that if she was making a mistake, that God would show her clearly. She received confirmation again that she is to close this door. She is going to obey the Lord's leading in this area of life today. Please pray it goes well. Through this situation, her eyes have been opened, and she has a much clearer idea of what she wants for the future. 5/16/2019: Right after she obeyed she received very, very clear affirmation in a big way that she had heard the Lord correctly and gave her a lot of confidence and peace in that. God is so good to His children! Thank you to all who were praying with her.
5/10/19: A big opportunity has presented itself to Clint and I this morning. It looks like we will be able to walk through it, if we choose. We need intercession on whether we should or whether we should not. We don't want to do it if the Lord is not in it. It is something you have to make decisions and move quickly on and that always makes me hesitant. Please ask God to close the door firmly if it is not of Him. If it is of Him, ask that we are able to glorify Him through it.
Update 5/16/19: Clint and I felt like God was telling us to leave this big opportunity for someone else and that another will come along at a better time for us when we are not so busy. We trusted Him and walked away. What we learned is that when the time is right, there is a way already prepared for us to go in this direction with provision available that we were not aware of previously. Thank you for praying with us on this!
