In just two days I will be on a plane heading to another adventure. Honestly, not a day has gone by in my 35 years (yes, 35) as an officer that there hasn't been some kind of adventure waiting for me. Not always fun, not always pleasant and most often, not easy. The adventure is knowing that I'm part of a much bigger plan and that I am not in this alone. This is about the Kingdom of God and I'm honored and humbled to be part of the King's work. And that will continue in a much different way as I start my new adventure serving at The Salvation Army's International Headquarters.
I don't yet know much about my role. I do know that I will get to see God at work in places and through people in a new and inspiring way. I do know that I will learn a lot about what the Army is doing to fulfill our mission around the world. I do know that God is already there and working His Kingdom plan and once again, I will get to join in that plan.
What else do I know? I have claimed the verse that is at the top of this blog for the last several years. 2 Peter 1:3 says "His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness." It's been true so far in this adventure called officership and I know it will continue to be true in the next step of the journey.
