It is with an understanding heart that I was told I would have to wait to go. Me being the "right now, right here" person, I was dissapointed and sad to hear, but I am willing to listen to what God has in store. I believe that if God really wants me to go now, He will still put that desire in my heart two years from now. What could now be just a spark will be an all-consuming passionate call in two years. I am excited and anxious about the future, but above all I am calmed that I have a Savior whose timing is perfect and whose plans far exceed mine. Some prayer concerns that weigh heavy on my heart at this moment that maybe you can share in:
- Trish, Nate and Gwyn
- Andrew Rawls and his family (his mother died and father in critical care)
- the friends I have met that have been assigned and now look at heavy duty fundraising!
- a couple with a child who is sick and the illness has not been determined
- teaching prospects for me in the fall
- missionaries in Chad that are waiting to be evacuated
- safety and well-being for Kenya

I'm so proud of you and your heart. And your willingness to do exactly what God wants. You are a great encouragement to me by reminding me that my timing is not God's timing. I'm praying for you!
Two years will fly by, and if this is a God thing, you'll be even more passionate about it. God's timing is perfect...I can't tell you how many times He's proved that to us over the past 4 years.
