I have a house FULL of sick kids. Actually now sick but recovering kids. It's strep and it's given me two sick days at home. That has meant scouring bathrooms and kitchen, washing bedding and about ten loads of laundry. I've also managed to paint the living room walls and trim. Honestly I'm starting to stress a little over having the house ready in April. Only 3 and a half weeks away. One of those weeks I will be in Belgium.
Things are really moving fast. Last Wednesday night we met at the church with a group from the UpStream Collective. What an amazing time of information and encouragement from men who have been where we are going. But it left me with many more questions. Should the kids go to a Brussels public school? When will I get a job? Where will I work? Questions , questions. Then as I was rehearsing lines for Sunday's Soul Station the main point sunk in. "I should trust God to provide for my needs when I obey Him!"
It's easy to get caught up in all the details. I have to choose to remind myself that God is in control of all of this, I just have to obey. Whew! That is a relief for a mom who is frazzled and suffering from the delusion that I have to figure everything out. God's got it. Trust. Obey.
Thank you Father for Your great plan. Thanks for the work You are doing in our lives.
