Well, the countdown has now officially dropped into the single digits. 9 days until I board my plane here in America and set off for this wild, wild country.
I can honestly say that I am terrified. I am afraid that I am going to mess everything up. I am afraid I am not going to know what to do. I am afraid of leaving home. I am afraid of being a Momma. I am afraid things aren't going to work out. I don't think I've ever felt so deeply the fact that I CAN'T DO THIS. There is nothing in my own self that is able to do this at all, much less do it well. So I turn to the Lord. He is able, and doesn't make mistakes. He is able, and has all knowledge. He is able, and He is always there. He is able, and He will Father these girls. He is able, and what He has started, He will bring to completion. What rest there is in Christ!
Prayer requests:
-That these last few days at home would be spent wisely. My schedule has already been filled pretty full, and there are still things that I know need to be done, but I am not sure how to fit it all in.
-That God would bring wisdom in determining which group of girls I should be working with. Right now there are two options, and as it is right now, I am going to be spending a day or two with each of the rooms and then deciding. I am praying that God would make it abundantly clear, and that there would be unity among all the different people involved in making that decision
-Wisdom for my packing/flying. I am kind of nervous about flying over by myself, so extra prayer for that would be appreciated!
