Preparing

3/7/15

We are preparing to return back to the United States. It is bitter-sweet as always. Leaving a place that you have formed relationships with and slowly grown to love. As much as I feel ready to go, I equally dread the return. I feel as if we are leaving the safe cocoon of JUST Michael and I, and returning to a battle field of emotions that I am not prepared for.

That being said, I am excited to return to the states and start this next phase of serving God, ministry opportunities, and welcoming our first born in to this crazy-crazy world. We joke that this is our next short term mission trip. Perhaps 5 or 6 months? And then off to who knows where else? We will see what God has planned!

Pray for us as we prepare, pack up our home, say our goodbyes, and make it through this LONG flight back to America. Pray for us as we once again adjust to a culture, and learn how to ingrain ourselves in to the daily routine of living in another country.

Mark 16:15
He said to them, "go in to all the world and preach the gospel to all creation."

Psalm 37:23-23
The Lord makes firm the steps of the one who delights in Him; though he may stumble, he will not fall, for the Lord upholds him with His hand.
