Four days...and counting...

As noted earlier...things just began falling into place that helped us make our decision. No, let me rephrase that...God was moving and showing us in all sorts of ways - that He wanted us moving to Hong Kong. The selling of the motorcycle was among the first 'God happenings.'

Once the offer from the English-speaking church was emailed to us - on Monday (the first of the 'four days') - Michael informed me that we should start praying - fervently - about this offer. And so....we did. We prayed collectively - we prayed separately - together before bed - in the morning at breakfast. I even found myself awake at night (ALWAYS at 4:30am) for four nights. I decided it was God waking me up to pray. On night number #2 - He woke me to pray for my family - I think He mentioned to pray that they would receive the news as He wanted...they would be accepting of any news with peaceful hearts.

Well, on night #4 - something strange & wonderful happened. I went to sleep praying for whatever God wanted - either way I would accept His answer. I then found myself at total peace about the entire situation. If He kept us in Dighton - GREAT - I'd still be close to my family in Tx (well, 10-13 hours driving "close")...I had plans to help a beautiful friend get a ministry off the ground (one mentoring moms in our area)...plans to continue helping another beautiful friend with her Zumba ministry ("TRAVEL!!!")...plans to get Moms In Touch (MITI) off the ground - something I wanted to bring to Dighton three years ago when we first arrived...and continue my ministry: baking cookies!

On the other hand...IF God moved us to Hong Kong - I was at total peace that night because I knew all would be well and in Him I could rest. So I did...and slept for a little while...until He woke me, again...around 3:30am...with something wonderfully amazing...something I'll never forget. It involves our dogs, a glass of water & our couch.
...I'll save that for the next post.
