So, I just realized that we leave for Uganda in 40 days!!! I cannot believe it. If I think about it too much I get overwhelmed at all that I have to do. Packing seems like WAY too much. I still have to get all of my shots and medicines. I don't have all of the proper clothing or shoes. The list goes on. Then I remember that I serve a God who is in control of EVERY situation - big or small. He cares about everything - big or small. He holds the entire world in His hands! I cannot even fathom that!!!
I have been reading the blog of my friend Lindsey who is in Uganda right now working with Sonrise. It makes me long to be there now with all of those precious babies. Please begin praying for us now that the Lord would prepare us mentally, physically, and spiritually for this long journey. I know it will be tough. Amy has already warned me to just expect to get sick at least once or twice on this trip (sounds like fun!) I know that it will be very tiring, but I also know that it will be so very rewarding. No matter what I face, I know that God will bring me through it. So, thanks for praying for us. Thanks for reading this blog. And thanks for joining with us in our work with Sonrise Baby Home!

ReplyDeleteHooray for Sonrise, but boo for getting sick!!!
And I'm pretty sure I will be no help with the packing situation....I'd put way too much in your bag because of my "motto" - better to have too much than not enough!
Thanks for keeping all of us here posted...I know this will be an adventure to remember!!!
