it tested my character in just the way I needed.

Ellie Kahler. At MOVE I learned many practical things, but more than that, I was confronted with experiences that tested my character in just the way I needed. After spending three months at MOVE, I spent my six months in Peru—but that soon turned into two years. After these years, my life was changed. I had new goals and dreams. More than anything, I found a clear purpose for my life. One of the most beautiful things that I see in this is the way that God changed the dreams and plans I had. I never felt that He was taking them away from me; rather, I felt that He took my sincere desire to serve Him and showed me, little by little, that His plan for me was so much better and that plan became the desire of my heart as well. He fulfilled the promise in Psalm 37:4, “Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.” Now I’m about to leave for a new mission field and I don’t know what awaits me there, but I do know the One who directs and I’m excited to see Him continue to fulfill His promises to me. I still can’t see the end of the impact MOVE has made in my life.
