T-Minus 17 Days.......

It's official...my departure date is set for May 9th!!!  (yea, I know that's coming up real soon, but thanks for the reminder...)

It's been a pretty hectic and uncertain past couple weeks, but now this week, God's been putting things into motion in a big hurry.  I received my Certificate of Eligibility (the precursor to the visa) from Japan, finalized the May 9th departure date, purchased my airfare, and submitted my visa application to the Japanese Consulate in Denver (I should have the visa in about a week).

May 9th is not very far away, and there's still quite a bit to get done.  With this, my head seems to be spinning a bit more than usual, as I'm trying to stay on top of things and get them in order.  I know He's still in control and that 17 days is plenty for Him to get everything...but it's still 17 days, and "reality" seems to kick in a bit more each passing day.

Please pray that I can stay focused on Him, that I will trust in His provisions (not mine) to make it through these next 2+ weeks, and please pray for the ministry awaiting me in Japan.
