Happy New Year! It is hard to believe 2023 is already here. As I look back over the previous year I am so thankful with the progress that was made. Because I did not post about what happened in 2022, I wanted to post about the highlights of the past year.
In October of 2021 I was able to obtain my state licensing to begin a taxi service business. While I was doing occasional trips in 2021, I did not start full time Amish taxi service until 2022. Praise the Lord, I have found a job I love!! This has allowed me to meet many new Amish people and has opened the door for witnessing.
In September there was a farming tragedy a couple miles from where I live where an Amish man and two of his sons were killed. I was away on an Amish run when I received the news and I felt God’s thumb in my back to ask the man, Eli, about his soul. Please pray for Eli. God wants to do a transforming work in his life.
Not only was I able to talk to Eli, but I was able to talk to other Amish people about being sure we are ready to meet God. I like being able to talk to people in the vehicle. I try to look for opportunities to say something about spiritual things and being ready for heaven. My prayer is that people will see Jesus in me while they are with me.
For about a year I had been praying about another vehicle. Purchasing a Honda Odyssey with eight seats, but didn’t have the funds to do so. I began looking into the process and took the necessary steps to obtain that goal. In November of 2022 I was blessed with a 2009 Honda Odyssey. It is so much nicer than what I expected to receive. I feel abundantly blessed!
I am excited to see what this next year will bring. Please pray with me that I will have the wisdom to know who to talk to, what to say and when to say it. I know God is working on hearts and I want to be used where He needs me.
