When the number seems too big!

 But Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.” Matthew 19:26

We can get so busy looking and worrying about things we need, that we miss the blessing in between. As I knew the toughest part of preparing for this trip would be to leave my worry behind as we started our fundraising. I remind myself over and over again that I feel very confident in God's calling on us for this trip that I know with all of my heart He will provide the way. We've really come so far so quickly, so as we are approaching just over one month to go, the number seems high, but my God is faithful. 

This past Saturday we met with our team (10 of us) going on this trip. We learned some basic information and received some assignments. I will get to work with the children! I think the only hard part about planning this is how to fill 2-3 hours without tables for crafts and very, very minimal supplies to bring. Overall it's going to be a blast sharing Jesus with them and loving on them! I think the biggest word will be GAMES!

Woohoo!! Look who got her passport in! She was pretty excited to see it.

One of the most exciting parts of this trip is that it's not our first trip, so there are things we know we can do that maybe we held back from doing before, and things we know we need to do better where we failed before. Oh how I praise God for the second chance.

Up next...we will share you one of the ways we are preparing our hearts for the trip. God has clearly showed me the first word, "LOVE."

We are going for only one reason, to show and share the love of Christ.
