Focus!

Right now I should be finishing my last two take-homes of my undergraduate career, but my mind is jumping between halfway across the country and halfway around the world. Out of 1 3 people for the Kansas City trip, we're down to 8 people + one car + no housing for the girls. Christina has suggested sleep fasting and homeless ministry during the night for us (the only girls left) and I did just get a new tent and sleeping bag last week...One person who is going accidentally unregistered himself which thoroughly confused us for a couple hours this morning.

The travel adrenaline has kicked in and I can't keep my mind on anything else. I just want to start packing, listen to Arabic & Urdu music, and pray pray pray. I can barely sleep (except when I try to write my papers of course) and I'm raring and ready to go while at the same time I have a million and one things to do and people to see before then.

Woooooo....pray that I can "be still" and know that He is God. Pray that I can enjoy God amidst the excitement of preparing to go and that I can hand in these papers and actually graduate. Not to mention that thesis which has been waiting 8 months to be archived...again I need to remember that God works everything together for the good of those who love Him.
