I just got off the phone with L.E. who's going to Africa with me. I am SO glad I called her. It was good to talk about what we're doing to get ready, what our weeks look like as we prepare to go, and apprehensions we have. It was good to share those things with someone else before we go. Now I have someone to pray for, someone who's praying for me, and know that I'm not alone.
I work 30 hours this week--including the day we leave. The carpet cleaners are supposed to be coming on Monday which means I need to move furniture everywhere. I have GOT to pack. Things are so nutty. Meanwhile I have nerves about flying. I'm worried about Eden. My parents are coming and I need to clean before they get here. I need to work on assignments before we head out.
I wish right now I had the time to just sit back and think about where we're going--to pray for the leadership and the people we'll experience--to feel the calming presence of the One that' made it all possible. I think, for tonight, even though I have so much to do to get ready, that I'll spend some time just doing that instead. Other things will take care of themselves.
