God is Good

Sorry it's been a while since my last post, but Jonathan and I have been busy. We made it to the south island and hiked 71 k across the Queen Charlotte Track. It was a rough 4 days, but we survived. It also gave us both time to grow closer to the Lord. After making it down we found a nice little camp ground at the base of the trail where we rested for 2 days in a nice little cabin. During that time we met an elderly couple who offered to give us a ride to Nelson. It was an answered prayer for sure. We had been praying for a lift all day, and without even asking them they came to our cabin and asked if we needed a lift. If that isn't God working I don't know what it. A little on the sad note, Meagan and I decided to take some time apart to figure things out. We both feel that we need to grow some before we can fully appreciate a strong relationship. I don't know where the Lord will lead us, but whatever he decides will be right.
Today in Nelson we met a pastor at a local church, and have made plans to meet up in the next few days to visit and get to know more about each other. I'm really excited about the chance to visit with him.
Lately I've had a lot to think about and pray about including my future. Today after a bit of a breakdown, i feel like the Lord has put the thought of becoming a Worship Leader on my heart. Where and when i dont know so please be praying for that. It would be an awesome way for me to involve all of my passions while giving the glory to God.
Please continue praying for Jonathan and me. We continue to pray for everyone back home!
I truely love each and every one of you who is keeping up with this blog.

Wow, so moving Michael! It's great getting these updates, I've been checking waiting for you to write again. I'm living vicariously through you - it all sounds so exciting. I think you would make an AMAZING worship leader... move to Dallas so we can go to your church; I find a good worship in the beginning really opens my heart up to the message. Good luck!
