I’m not big on setting goals even though I understand the importance of them, but I do from time to time have a list of things I want to accomplish (I guess that is setting goals, huh?).
The last time I went to the DR, my desire to accomplish a list of things caused real consternation. Things don’t always move as quickly or as expediently in the DR as they do here in the States. By about mid-week, I had a real God encounter when God impressed on me that I went to the DR with a list of things I wanted to accomplish rather than just going to be a servant of the Most High God and doing what He wanted to accomplish. Once God got that through my head, it was a much better experience.
So on this trip, I’m resisting setting goals, or making a to-do list. The only goal I’ve set is to come away with some decent documentation on the computer system that is in place there. That seems like a pretty modest goal, but I have to say that setting even that modest objective makes me nervous. I hope I can go with the attitude that I will be a servant of the Most High God, and do whatever it is He calls me to do.
Prayer request: That I will have a serving attitude.
