Tomorrow Emily and I will be setting off for England. To think about how this opportunity came up, how once it did doors have flown open, and how the details and support have come together in such a relatively short span of time floors both of us.
Scripture says, "But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God has chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty" (1 Corinthians 1:27). This journey has reminded us of how foolish we are (we fret, but He is always in control), and just how weak we are as well. But it is at this point we need to find ourselves, so that we can be used by God the way He wants, and in a way that none of the glory can be given to us.
You have given your prayers and finances to help us get to England, and for that we are extremely grateful, encouraged, excited, and humbled. We fly out from Chicago O'Hare at 4:18pm, and arrive in London the following morning. Then we'll be there for 6-weeks in the Queen's country. Please pray that we will make it there and through customs without incident. We look forward to writing you from England. God bless you all!
