I discussed with my "landlords" our future plans for the next five to six months. They seemed OK with our plans. Let it be known that we could not be prepared for our mission without them and their compassion for us. Thanks be to Sam and Tessa. (And all of my children, and many other dear friends for their prayers.)
We discussed with them all our plans of how we were going to go in about six or seven months. They accepted and agreed on those plans. As I continue to consider the goals and dreams to get us out, I continue to ponder what things may fall out of place and what things will give us headaches and obstacles.
As each hurdle is passed and plans are evaluated, I feel more and more comfortable that we are going to be blessed to be able to serve our King. I know other things could enter the picture to modify our plans, but nothing so far.
I am not saying that Father is done teaching us, testing us, and helping us grow through challenges, but at least for right now, things seem to be progressing along in the right path and we will go. Again I say that we are ready to go wherever He wants us to go, and I still feel that there is a certain place that is in need of our testimonies.
Elder Holland said that if we must rest on our swords, that would be OK as long as we get up and fight again and again. I know there will continue to be battles to fight, to learn from, and to show our dedication to this goal and dream. I know there will be speed bumps, difficult mole hills to climb and even a few mountains to move. But I also know that in His strength, in His eyes, all can be overcome and learned from. Thus I proceed forward, ready to tackle anything and continue to progress toward our mission.
It is so nice to know that Father is watching over us, directing us, and waiting upon us to continue in this goal and opportunity to serve. I am excited.
