I learn something new everyday.

Take that back, I learn so many new things everyday, that it has become a constant occurrence.

When I first came on the summer staff at Hosanna Industries in the summer of 2011, I knew I had a great deal to learn. I had no prior experience in the construction field.

Since being on the full time field staff, which started at the beginning of this past summer (2012), I have learned so much more than can be expressed in one blog post. But one of the things that I have recently learned is, in order to do God’s work, it takes a lot of risk and a whole lot of faith. There are numerous clients that we help on a regular basis that don’t know what the next steps are going to be, or what tomorrow holds, or if they will live to see tomorrow. We just have to trust God and have the faith that He knows what He is doing and that He is the one in control. Doing God’s work is risky business, because the road ahead isn’t always perfectly clear and lined up the way we would want; all we can do is trust God’s plan at the moment and do the best that we can do with it.

This is what Hosanna Industries is known for – its “faith based” composition.
