Before I go....there is always so much to do...or is there?

It is the sunday morning before I leave and as always there is so much to do...Why is that I wonder? Is it because all the rest of the time I am lazy? Or is it because I want everything to be done, in order and spic n span? If that is the case why don't I want everything done, in order and spic n span when I am at home? Or do I?

I don't know the answer. Maybe it is because I will not be home for a while but the chores for the upcoming month still need doing. Or do they? Will they not still be there when I get home? I am sure they will as well as a bunch more. Oh well, I am not going to dwell on that anymore, that is for sure!

I wonder if I had all my chores done would I think of others to do? I think I probably would. But I also need to keep things in perspective. Take a few minutes and think about the things that are really important - make a mental list of priorities and then decide which ones I need to do and which ones I want to have done. Focus more on what God wants me to have done and in place before I go and while I am away than what I want to have done, because at the end of the day " it all goes back in the box".

I am really excited about going to Peru and find it hard to believe that God willing I will be there on thursday. I still have 2 days of work left as well. Hopefully, I can continue to live and appreciate each and every day for the day that it is, while looking forward to the days to come.

I am planning on travelling over to Vancouver on wednesday afternoon and spending the night with friends. They will take me to the airport on thursday and I fly out at 7:30am. I fly from Vancouver to Houston which will be exciting as I have never been to Texas, even if it is only in the airport it still counts. Then from Houston to Lima. I arrive in  Lima at 10:30pm and fly out early the next morning. I think I will just stay in the airport until my flight to Cusco. I will be in Cusco at just before 8:00 am and will be met at the airport by someone who will take me to where I am going to be staying.

Prayers are always appreciated, so please pray for travel mercies and that I surrender my will and let God's will for my life prevail. Also, if you could please pray that God use me and work through me to reach, teach or love whomever He has destined. That every day when I awake I greet Him and give Him my day, the day which He has given me.

I look forward to all that God has for me and I encourage you to check out my blog and respond to me through them. If you respond anonymously and then put your name on the bottom I will know it was from you.

Take care and God bless you and all you love.
