Giving glory to God

So on April 19th, 2010 - we were "supposed" to leave for Mozambique. I say "supposed" because that was OUR plan. One thing I have learned is that no matter what, God always has the last word. It's just better that way anyway ;)

So we were all packed, but then there was a volcano. And a whole lot more things, but I'll spare you the details. I was disappointed. I wanted to go. I begged God to give me joy in this situation. I BEGGED Him. Then I took out my Bible on the porch outside. Being outside always makes me smile, and reading Scriptures seamed more than appropriate! God gave me nice weather to make me smile again and blessed me in His Word. He covered me with hope, with joy, with peace. I have never been more sure that I was in His will about this whole Mozambique thing than now. I trust Him, rest in Him and He has given me joy. We will get there when we'll get there. Currently it looks like we'll leave tomorrow, but you won't hear me make that a for sure claim :)

And the funniest thing is how Raph is OBLIVIOUS to the whole thing. Really, he has LOVED to have all kinds of suitcases to climb on this week.

Pray also that his cold wouldn't get worse. He is currently quite congested and we hope and pray the flights and trip there won't be too hard on him.

THANKS for praying, the LORD is so good to us.
