Good Idea or a God Idea

Right now I am walking out the door of my office and driving about an hour from Managua to visit two churches. We have been presented with an offer to "take over" two existing churches in what would be considered the "country" here in Nicaragua. Taking over existing churches is not really part of our vision, but this does sound like a great opportunity. Sure, the churches are small (30 -40 people), but each one does have a simple church building, a parsonage, and even 1 1/2 acres of land. So the question arises, is this a Good Idea or a God Idea? There are a lot of dynamics involved in this particular question, however, for times sake, we will leave it at that. If you know me, then you know that I am not interested in God's permissible will, but interested in His perfect will.............Good Idea or God Idea?

Great to hear what's happening on your field of mission. Sounds like a God Idea to me, but will be praying for wisdom for you.
Blessings,

When we want a family sometimes we give birth and sometimes we "adopt" but God gives the increase. leaden
