Here We Go!

Well, this is it. My countdown is now to the hour.

I am ready. I really am. But that doesn't make leaving the one's you love any easier. I have always heard and believed it to be true, that if saying goodbye is hard, it means you are saying goodbye to something really good. Something worth coming back to. I am so blessed by the great cloud of witnesses I have supporting me in the States. It is so comforting to know that people want to be a part of what God has called me to. 

I can't wait to see how The Lord works. I know His ways are immeasurably higher than my ways, and though that really scares me, it really excites me too. I have real fears, real doubts, but God has proven Himself faithful.

We sang the song "Oceans" today in church, and the words rang so true that faith may fail, and fear does surround me, but God has never failed and He won't start now. What a beautiful promise.

So I'm going in faith. I'm going with trust. All I know about my life is that I'm leaving tomorrow. 

But that is so good. This journey is no doubt an adventure with my Savior and I wouldn't want to be doing it with anyone else.

Prayers for travel would be much appreciated. The winter weather is not in our favor...

Much love,

Grace Marie
