Another test?Do we have to do a psychological test as well? A dental check-up again? A blood test too….? Another meeting to talk through possible fields? We have started the preparations for our new life overseas full of enthusiasm. But our to-do-list became bigger and bigger. We felt overwhelmed and sometimes discouraged: are these tests and checks really necessary? Closing doors to go overseas? Do people doubt about us going overseas? There are probably all kind of situations to ask these questions. Two things we would like to say about it at this moment: when you’re finally on the plane with all these tests behind you, you know that there are people and tests results that encourage you to go – you look suitable for living and working overseas (but you’re still not perfect J). The other thing is that this process teaches patience, perseverance, faith and trust in God – disciplines you definitely need (in life and) on the mission field. Leave a Reply |
