Daily Devotional - Wednesday, July 22

Ephesians 3:14-21

We've mentioned before how amazing God's love is for us, that he would choose to adopt us into His family as His sons and daughters. Now that we are a part of God's family, we have access to His "glorious riches"- His strength and power through the Holy Spirit. We are able to accomplish so much with this power- more than we can even imagine! (verse 20) As we prepare for this trip, don't rely on what you think you will be able to do, but rather ask God to do the unimaginable! :) Allow Him to direct you for His purpose (Jeremiah 29:11), and continue to pray for assurance and power that are found only in Him. We may be faced with difficulties here and abroad, but it is so important to remember who we are-- "What's the truth?" as my dad would say... you are dearly loved by your Father and empowered by Him as well.
