ticket in hand!

I am now officially on my way to Buenos Aires, Argentina! I leave March 13 and will be there in time for Easter Week! I am grateful for God’s provision and look forward to being a part of all He is doing in Buenos Aires.

I have carried this Psalm and Lament (along with a few other anchor Scriptures) with me these past two years. I have found rest and encouragement in these promises! They seem especially appropriate as I offer my praises of thanksgiving and wait in eager anticipation and hope for all that is ahead!

“Yet this I call to mind and therefore I have HOPE: Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. I say to myself, ‘The Lord is my portion; therefore I will wait for him! The Lord is good to those whose hope is in him, to the one who seeks him; it is good to wait quietly for the salvation of the Lord.” ~ Lamentations 3:21-26

“Give me your lantern and compass,
give me a map,
So I can find my way to the sacred mountain,
to the place of your presence,
To enter the place of worship,
meet my exuberant God,
Sing my thanks with a harp,
magnificent God, my God.”
~ Psalm 43:3-4 (The Message)
