Pulling out the rusty old blog for another Kat adventure...

It's midnight...and I've been packed for over 24 hours. This is a first. I almost can't go to bed because I keep thinking I should be panicking and pulling an all nighter... I have to be forgetting something? I'm Kat! But here I am... all ready to go. It's a good feeling, a calm. I sometimes find myself wishing my everyday life was spent this way; instead I'm always rushing and late. I think this is why people speak of finding rest in the Lord. Restful rest feels good. The rest where you don't have burdens or worry, because you're prepared. God is always prepared, so we always have the opportunity to find rest in Him...if we choose. My prayer for us as we embark to Cambodia is that our team walks in His restfulness. That we don't become consumed with the little things that make us lose sight of Joy, but that we seize every opportunity and our minds are at peace. Cambodia has had a very rough last 40 years. A lot of death, destruction, and trauma. I pray we process these events and are humble and sensitive toward a hurting people. At the end of the day we are all broken and hurting people in desperate need of the Gospel. We are broken people serving broken people. We may not have seen genocide, experienced extreme poverty, or been faced with selling our children so our families can eat, but we have our own list of trails and tribulations that define us. So, as we embark, please be praying for humble hearts, protected minds, selflessness, and that we will overflow with love and joy. I'm not sure how often I'll be able to blog, but I'll do my best to try to post something :) Love you all, and thank you to all who are supporting me- financially and through prayer. Blessing and love, Kat xx
