worrying about the little things

It hit me today that 3 weeks from today I will have arrived on foreign soil for the first time in my almost 49 years. It made me dizzy to think about all the things I have to do in 21 days and made my heart beat a little faster with excitement and apprehension. I have been worrying about little things like how will Izzy (our shih tsu) do without Ellen for two weeks? will Jeff eat right? can he get his laundry done? how will he get along without us? We will miss him so much but I can only imagine how he will feel coming into an empty, quiet house every night - Ellen and I are anything BUT quiet! Satan has been working overtime but right now I am winning the game 2-1. Just gotta keep asking God to go before me every day. I am so blessed to have this opportunity - 2010 has truly been a banner year thus far...ran my first full marathon, going on a mission trip for the first time ever, got a passport - I may even train for another marathon, who knows? I do know that I am a very blessed woman - I have a husband who loves me and makes me laugh, an incredible daughter who I love more than the grains on sand in the ocean and I most importantly I am a redeemed daughter of the King of Kings. Praise Him, Praise Him, Jesus our Blessed Redeemer.

running on faith -
