God blows me away

for as much as i thought i would like to go with pastor and jose to guatemala i didn't like the idea of travelling for 3 days on a bus with a 1 year old in what i imagined at least 35 degree weather. i can't imagine a child who's just discovered they can move around on 2 feet having to sit still for 3 days.

then pastor says they will go in june instead. a 6 month old will sleep through most of the 3 days.

this is so typical of what God has been doing in my life.

2 years ago when susy came here for 8 months i thought what an awesome opportunity. i never thought it would be possible for me until this year when i came home. i could see God's hand in it as different things happened. it was almost freaky the last two weeks of july and then daily the last week of july as i thought things - they would happen. i even told God He was freaking me out (several times) the way He was making things happen.

maybe this is nothing but i was kinda thinking i wasn't going to go to guatemala. the fact that it's in june now i think i will go. so is this ''coincidence'' that the date is changed.

pastor asked if i was thinking about it. if nothing else it would be a trip through central america. whether or not there is an opportunity to serve God, to see a new mission field, i don't know. i know if God wants me to go He will pave the way for me.
