Travelling With Britta


Finally: Full Time Deputation

Friends, things are changing rapidly again. On Valentine’s day I resigned from my position as English tutor (long story) and I am also giving up my apartment in Caronport. I’m a bit sad.

At the end of this month, I am moving to Kuroki. No, it’s not a tropical island or a vacation spot in Florida– it’s a hamlet of about 20 houses, a church and a bar near Foam Lake- about 3 ½ hours NE of Caronport.

I have decided to launch into full time deputation so that I can be back in Brazil by the end of this year. If it is God’s desire, He will make it possible.

Once I am over 70% of my budget, I will apply for my 2 yr. missionary work visa to Brazil. I hear these sometimes take a few months, so I don’t want to wait until I have all funding in place just to have to wait for the visa.

Today I heard a sermon on the radio: “It is better to obey than to sacrifice.” I wonder if sacrifice isn’t a result of obedience. Would it not be difficult to obey without forfeiting something? I know that’s the place I am in.
However, I am also in another place: God has called me to service; He wants me to invest my life to do His will.

Jesus told His disciples: “but the world must learn that I love the Father and that I do exactly what my Father has commanded me” (Jn14:31)

Do you love God? What are you willing to do?
