Those are the words my brother Kwabena said when I told him how God is taking care of the financial needs necessary to go to Thailand. God is amazing! I have been completely blown away by the support of God's people! It is great to see others have hearts for Thailand. The Lord is great at providing a way to do what He wants done. It is hard to wait and see what God is going to do with this trip. At the moment we are planning to stay in Thailand for 2 months (end of May - end of July).
We are still planning out the details of the trip. All we know at the moment is we will be working with several different missionaries in Bangkok, and possibly others in different areas. We are also going to look at language schools so we can maybe get an idea which one to attend in the future. Another plan is to visit Ramkhamhaeng University which is the largest college in Thailand (over 500,000 students). Our friend that is probably going with us went to college there. We pray that we can share the Gospel and build relationships there for a few weeks. Then at sometime we are going to our friend's village to visit his family and minister alongside his church there. I know God will continue to line things out. Brittney and I both miss Thailand and are so happy we are going back! I can't believe in the next few days we are buying tickets! God has given us the desires of our heart and is providing the way to live them out.

Exciting News!
It is very clear the Lord is confirming He has a plan for us to serve Thailand this summer... Can't explain all the details just yet but our prayers for clarity and guidance on it are being answered! (It looks like God is working out a way for a good friend of ours to go with us and the neatest thing about that is that he is Thai! Our prayer is that we will be as helpful to him as he will be to us!!)
The estimated dates as of right now for us to go will be around May 24ish- July 20ish. In the next few days we will be taking a Leap of Faith, lots of decisions to be made we will be ordering our flight tickets, and making contacts with those we will be serving with over there.
It seems that God is showing us He has big plans to use us on this trip, and in doing so we believe He will stir hearts to provide the finances for us to go as He has faithfully done so in the past. We pray that You will be as blessed giving to support us as we are to be serving! May God receive all the Glory from it!!!!!

Spring Break!
What an amazing spring break!! Brittney and I have had the wonderful opportunity of promoting our school (BMATS) at the BMAA national meeting. The president of our school had me give a short summary on how the Seminary has helped us in our preparation toward missions. We met many great people and leaders. We ate great food with great friends. Also God put before us good contacts for our up coming summer trip to Thailand. These missionaries seem excited to have us and help us.
Brittney and I were filled with so much joy when we witnessed our friends be announced as BMA Missionaries! After this wonderful time of worship and prayer we met the Director of SOAR (Youth Conference in the Dallas area). He invited us to go there and for me to speak about Thailand and our hearts for missions. Tomorrow we have the privilege of stopping by to have lunch with the president of our school and the president of the Reformed Theological Seminary in Jackson Mississippi. On top of all this an anonymous person purchased a brand new suit and it was later given to me.
What a great spring break. Brittney and I are so excited about the work that the BMA is doing through the grace of God. They are truly loving, encouraging, and committed to carry out the Lord's work. It is a great "family" to be apart of and work alongside. Even though this week has been great I have missed teaching the youth at New Hope tonight. God has blessed us with a great group of youth that are seeking the face of God. I am so excited to see how God will use them now and in the future!

Hearts for Thailand
This
blog is dedicated to stir hearts for Thailand. May God receive glory and praise
from our efforts to keep others posted on His work through us and to us.
At
the moment we are planning another trip to Thailand this summer. We have until September 2012 to present to >BMAA missions< the place we believe God wants us to serve as
missionaries. Right now we know where our hearts and minds are tuning into, but
we are still trying to remain open. After this summer trip (Lord willing) the
plan is to move to the country where God is sending us and begin the Lord's
work there (Summer 2013).
We
plan to make disciples, train leaders (2 Tim. 2:2), and watch the Lord build
for Himself (Matthew 16:18) an indigenous church... then repeat as many times
as the good Lord allows us!!
