Let go and let God!

Well,  here it is 19 days before “lift off”.  I have to admit that I wondered…about 2 things…OK, worried about 2 things.  The first was going on a missions trip that the focus was prayer.  What did that mean exactly?  Was I going to have to pray 24/7 for 7 days?  Could I do that?  Maybe this wasn’t the trip for me.  I must confess that my prayer life could use some…help…discipline.  How can I pray for a week?  Well, after some discussion in our team meetings, my fears were calmed a bit.  I also began to realize that maybe, just maybe God has a plan in all this.  Take me out of my “comfort zone” and show me how to improve my prayer life through this journey.  I am open to it.

The second thing that concerned me was raising the funds to actually go on the trip.  As Gary and I were making our list of family and friends to send our letter to, I thought, geez…will we raise enough?  What if we didn’t?  Was that a reflection on me somehow?  Early on I had to keep telling myself to not worry about it, if God wanted me (us) there He will make it happen.  Well..once again God shows His hand…we are sooooo close to being fully funded!  HA…isn’t it great!!!  I am so amazed and blessed by others generosity! I guess He REALLY wants us in Argentina!!

I must say…I am getting extremely excited!

ARGENTINA OR BUST!  :- )
