Me talking to an "Edger"
It's one thing for me to go, but what about when He asks me to send my daughter?

Preparing to live incarnationally and focused on the ones to whom I'll be ministering... the missionary candidates.

"You are my servant; I have chosen you and have not rejected you.  So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God.  I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand." ~Isaiah 41:9-10
 
Dear <<First Name>>,

 My mind has been spinning with things I want to share with you about this journey so much so that I was up til 4am yesterday with ideas swimming around in there.  Since I can't fit them all in this one email, I'd like to share some of my Flying Goldfish Lessons with you over the course of the next few weeks.

I usually ponder what to write in my email updates for several days, maybe even a week or two before I actually write them.  This time I was considering the image I've got up top and realized how fitting the Flying Goldfish illustration truly is.  During this season I have often felt like a fish out of water, held indefinitely in mid-air unable to breath or swim in any controlled manner, but there's a great adventure to it and a most anticipated destination ahead.

As soon as the final $770 in monthly support is provided, I will be able to move to Orlando and begin working at Pioneers.  The end of this season is in sight, and I'm almost sad to see it go.  Haha, I wasn't really expecting to feel that way, but God has been showing me such depths of His grace through ministry opportunities and surprise blessings these past few months that it'll be a bittersweet day once I splash into that new fishbowl.

Me in Savannah, eating a beignet on River Street I'm working on how best to share with you what He's been teaching me, so please be praying for wisdom and creativity in that.  Otherwise, we're business as usual... still praying for God to raise up the last financial partners this side of Orlando.  Our team is growing, and I can see His fingerprints all over it.  More on that next time.  :)  

Have a lovely day and I'll talk to you soon,
Laura

P.S.  The first round of "Edgers" will return for debriefing on July 11th.  Please be praying for their safe travel and a healthy time of transition back to life in the States.  I am aching to be there to greet them but am daily finding peace in the knowledge that our Father has my name engraved on His hand.  He has not forgotten me.  He knows right where I am and right where He wants me to be.  This too is a Flying Goldfish Lesson I'll elaborate on in the coming weeks.  See ya' then!
