Finally....Almost
So, the house is sold, we're substitute teaching, and this weekend will be one of the numerous garage sales we have in which we sell our personal possessions for a few bucks. Now comes the decisions of what to ship to ourselves in order to make our new 200 sq. ft. flat a bit homey...not sure how to decide what to take, what to let go, and what to replace. But, I'm sure it will all get done. Overall, I have a great sense of satisfaction with where we are at in the process of moving to the mission field. So many people in my life have passively or actively expressed that they don't think we'll actually do this. What they don't realize is that we are not doing something that we think will be fun or just because we thought of it one day. What we are about to set out on is an adventure that God has called us to. If I don't follow him on this I will regret it for the rest of my life. If I don't take this wild leap, I will not be living the life I was meant to live. So, here we go. And what is so wonderful is that because my God is so great and because he has a very specific purpose for my life, he has made all the plans for me. He knew who would by our home (and that we would get a full price offer in a horrible market), he knows all our supporters before they decide to become our partner, and he knows every step we will need to take to make this dream a reality. He has called us and he is so much more faithful to me than I can ever be to him. I'm so thankful that he called me, that he is making a way, and that he believes in me. I have decided to stop caring that so many have called us crazy and haven't really believed we would do this....that's not how my God works. He does what he says he's going to do.
