Getting Closer

Well in about 8 weeks we leave for our trip to Haiti. All kinds of thoughts and emotions going through me. Excitement of course for what is to come. For what He has in store for our team, and for me while I'm there. Anxiousness as I'm repeatedly told about current government safety warnings for travelers to Haiti. Anxious yes, fearful? No way. Stuff can happen anywhere, and in His hands, we can be safe anywhere. I've been to Haiti before, travel warnings and all. I'll be on my knees, praying for our trip, I have already started. :o) Sadness at leaving my family for the 10 days. Without their support this mission would not be possible for me. God is my rock I will continue to stand on, and my family is the hands I will be holding and standing next to on that rock. Thankfulness as I reflect back on my own life and experiences, for they are what have shaped me, and not just the good, because that is how we learn, we grow, and we see when and where God's love and hand holding us.



Jesus said, "I have come that they might have LIFE, and have it to the full. JOHN 10:10
