Goodbye to the South, Hello to the North!

the Thai flag

Today, our Internet gets disconnected.  The last of our things get thrown into a box or bag, and we will be turning in early to prepare for our 5am wake-up to get ready for the truck's arrival at 6am. 

The sun came out today - an answered prayer!  Moving in muggy weather would not be a cake-walk...so I have been praying for a sunny weather until Sunday (AFTER all our stuff gets moved off the truck!).  Run and Huy finally got to play outside today after a week of rain.  They are in bliss.  Run caught no less than 5 toads and is quiet for the first time since I can remember.

Some of teenagers we've been investing in are coming over tonight to be here for the early move tomorrow.  *enters the Hallelujah chorus*  Also, a doctor friend of ours is staying the night as well to help lift things and probably hold my baby while we put all our belongings onto a 6-wheeled truck and trust God that it all will arrive safely up north.  

Pray for us.

Pray for good weather.

Pray for happy, cheerful, obedient hearts.  Not just for our kids, but for us as well.  :)

Pray for the two-day trip to seem like two hours. 

Pray for the grace to leave our "home" to enter a new one.

Pray for fruit to remain here and multiply 100-fold!

Pray for Thailand.  That is why we're here, after all!

  1. I've not had internet the last couple of days, so couldn't get a hold of you. I know you will already be moved now. But I have been praying for you to have a safe, uneventful move.
