Countdown has begun...

Well, in is just a few short hours we embark on the latest adventure. 22 hours and 21 minutes to be exact. Little did we know that following God into the woods of Southwest Arkansas in 2005 meant we would be following Him into Russia in 2010. While it is just a temporary journey, we are praying that God would use us for His glory on this side trail. What that looks like from this end of the trail I cannot tell but we will soon see what awaits us around that bend ahead.
We go on this journey because we want to see where it leads...where God is already working...and how we can join Him...or simply to praise Him...anywhere, just to be with Him. We chose this path, following Jesus wherever He leads, because it is THE grandest adventure of a lifetime...of an eternity. Sure God takes us where He goes...through the valley of the shadow of death...into the barren places...into the dry places...into the green pastures by the still waters...even into the snowy hills of Russia. But wherever we go we are assured that the King of Kings and Lord of Lords goes with us. And that is exactly where we want to be, right with Him, now and forever more.
I pray you can say the same. I pray you can find the peace that comes with the Prince of Peace. I pray you can say, as we can...It Is Well With My Soul! To God be the Glory!
And we are off...
