As I finally begin to wrap things up for a week to head to training for Guatemala, I am finding myself more and more excited to go.  I know that in my last blog I was in a place of mourning and perhaps I’ll return there at some point during the next year… to be honest I feel like I have been on a rollercoaster of emotions from fear to mounring, mourning to joy and excitement.  This week the Lord has been so gracious in reminding me, not once but several times, that He is the provider of all things and not only can, but will provide far more than I can imagine during this time as I seek to follow Him alone.  

I lift up my eyes to the hills.
From where does my help come?
 2 My help comes from the Lord,
who made heaven and earth.

 3 He will not let your foot be moved;
he who a keeps you will not slumber.
 4 Behold, he who keeps Israel
will neither slumber nor sleep.

 5 The Lord is your keeper;
the Lord is your  shade on your right hand.
 6 The sun shall not strike you by day,
nor the moon by night.

 7 The Lord will keep you from all evil;
he will keep your life.

8 The Lord will keep
your going out and your coming in
from this time forth and forevermore.

Psalm 121
