In Genesis 12, God tells Abraham to move from his land and all that he knows to go somewhere far off and unknown. He says that if Abraham obeys, he will be a blessing for others. I see that in my life when I moved to Hong Kong with little knowledge of what lay ahead. He provided when I knew nothing, and allowed me to impact people around me that I never would have been able to if I had not moved.
