December 3rd

Well today's December 3rd and I'm just finishing my support letter. It's kind of weird doing all this again, it's been two and half years since I've been to Scotland. Wow, I've forgotten how much fun I had there. Well, I don't leave for 3 months and that seems like a long ways away, but then I remember that I'll be gone for 6 months.

Maybe that's why I became a little bit nervous today. I think of all the things that I won't get to see or have while I'm gone, but the joy that Jesus brings me and what I'll be doing for him makes it all that much more worth it.

When I become nervous I think of the passage of Matthew 8:18-22:
"Now when Jesus saw great multitudes around him, he gave the order to depart to the other side. A scribe came, and said to him, “Teacher, I will follow you wherever you go.” Jesus said to him, “The foxes have holes, and the birds of the sky have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head.” Another of his disciples said to him, “Lord, allow me first to go and bury my father.” But Jesus said to him, “Follow me, and leave the dead to bury their own dead.”'

So for now I'll keep on plugging away at my day to day life, for I know that my God will use me in someway every where I go.

With the Love and Peace of Jesus Christ,
I hope you're doing well!
