Ireland

Well today is going to be an adventurous day, because today I'm going to Ireland! I'm sure it will be very tiring and nerve-wracking with the whole process of actually getting there, but it doesn't matter..it's still amazing that I get to go there at all.

I'm not really sure what awaits us on this trip, other than finally getting to visit with my brother. And I'm really not sure why the Lord allowed a trip like this to fall in place when I wasn't truly thinking I would ever get to go there. But He knows what He's doing and why He's opening certain doors, while closing others. So I'll just let Him show me what the plan is in His time:)

It's been a pretty odd past few weeks, just uncertain of things around me and what's going to happen in the immediate future. Usually that happens right before the Lord moves us out, somewhere else to train and prepare for where we're actually headed. You would think that I'd be used to it by now, but no. It really never feels normal to have an uncertainty in where God will sweep you up and take you away. As often as it happens, I still get nervous and antsy about where we'll go.

I was thinking that maybe I should get a map to catalog the places we go and people we meet, could be interesting and a fun way to keep your memories handy. I don't know, we'll see if I can find something to do that with. Photo albums might work just as well:p

So in a few short minutes, I'm off to begin my journey to the place where the majority of my ancestors came from....wonder if I can find any nifty relatives that resemble us. How weird would that be? Weird...yet strangely fascinating..

Well here I go......to a new destination! What happens next will be yet another adventure...
