The Bridge Church- Day 1- Clearance for Haiti

I'm going to begin telling you about my journey to Haiti by looking back at 2007. In 2007 I was a stay at home mom, living in Seaside, CA with my husband and four sons. We lived on a modest budget, so any time I could find a deal for shoes I grabbed them. That year I purchased a pair of Privo closed toe shoes by Clark on clearance.

Today as I started my travel, I noticed my worn, but still functioning Privo's by Clark. They are now 12 years old ; most shoes are no longer effective after 12 years. In that moment, God showed me He's been preparing me my entire life for this very day. For all my days.

I currently live in Troy, Illinois, and in 2007 I hadn't even heard of Troy Illinois. Haiti had never even crossed my mind. God of course knew all along I'd be in Haiti in 2019. I've been waiting with baited breath, after hearing the glorious stories of this wonderful country, to come experience it for myself.

As I looked at my shoes this morning while boarding the plane, I knew God had a divine plan for me and my shoes all along.

For I know the plans I have for you,"declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
Jeremiah 29:11

Your journey may not take you to Haiti. But, wherever your journey does take you, know that God has a plan to prosper you, and not harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
