Friday is almost here!  We have been so excited and so busy getting everything ready to go.  We have been overwhelmed by how much the people around us have loved on us.  God has been so good throughout this entire process.  Friday is coming though, and it will be filled with a lot of tears.  Missing our loved ones will be hard but the fruit that will be produced is completely worth it. In Psalm 126: 5-6 it says Those who sow in tears will reap with songs of joy. He who goes out weeping, carrying seed to sow, will return with songs of joy, carrying sheaves with them.  Sometimes I wonder how our gracious and sovereign God chose me to do His work...but He did.  And I will try to obey everything that He has planned for the rest of my life lived here on this earth.  But he didn't just call Dusty and I to go, He called all of His children to go.  So my prayer for all of you is to be still and listen to God (Psalm 46:10) and grow His kingdom the way He desires all of us to do.  Again, we love you all so much and thank you for blessing us the way that you do!  Peru...here we come!
