Haiti tomorrow!

How good and pleasant it is
    when God’s people live together in unity! —   Psalm 133:1 NIV

Two are better than one,

    because they have a good return for their labor:If either of them falls down,
    one can help the other up.
But pity anyone who falls
    and has no one to help them up!

Though one may be overpowered,
    two can defend themselves.   —   Ephesians 4:9-10,12 NIV

We are all getting ready... excited, anxious, nervous, eager,... all of it. 

Please pray for this hand picked team. For our unity in Christ, purpose and service. Amen!

Less than TWO weeks... and we're getting excited!

Romans 13:8 Owe no one anything except to love one another, or he who loves another has fulfilled the law.

Love. It's that simple. Christ's love is what you have to impart on those God puts before you in Haiti. Love those He places in your path. Love them like He does.

We are fortunate to live in a time where we can capture those lovely faces God puts before us in multiple ways... by describing them in our journals or by my capturing them on camera. People in Bible times weren't able to capture moments quite the same way. They had only their memories and hearts. And you know what? We have those too! Some of my most impactful moments in Haiti are those that I replay in my mind and are of those I still love in my heart. They are those who fill my prayers. Those memories are deeper and stronger than words on a paper or pictures on a screen.

Father, I thank You for the honor of going to new frontiers and for all of the new people and experiences and sights that You will bring my may. Help me to record as much as I can... But Lord, I choose this day to treasure in my heart the memories of what You will do, the places You will take me, and what You will bring my may. Help me to walk in Your love at all times. Amen!
