Grace...it's what's for Dinner!

I Erin Johns have these moments of silly where I say the phrase (inserting random weird words you don't typically eat for dinner like pants, dirt, crazy) "___________ it's what's for Dinner...you can't eat _________ for Dinner!" ...because sometimes you just need a moment to yourself to laugh and realize that what your going through just isn't that big of a deal in the grande scheme of things. 

Currently working on letters to businesses asking for support...this isn't something I do on a regular basis...its uncomfortable, slightly awkward, humbling, challenging which I guess is good...and I'm trying to think more about how doing pre-trip stuff like this will God-willing effect other peoples lives in a good way vs Oh man another letter?...or imagining Paul's first letter to churches...how was it received?...Dear Churches, Remember when I persecuted you and your members...well I've changed my ways and now I'm sharing the Good News dot dot dot?  I'm so glad there's examples of "Thanks God ...but no way am I able to do that in the bible."...God must have known 2,000+ years later a simple girl would be trying to do something rather crazy and need the extra boost up to step out of the boat, or cast the net when all else seemed unlikely.

So... would you pray with me about this "Net Casting"...that God would continue to shock me, and the fruit or fish from casting would further what God is doing right now on this earth...because otherwise this is completely pointless...all of it.
