8.8

At home in Glen Allen, what is now Tuesday morning, it all still feels very surreal that my plane will touch down in Santiago, Chile Friday morning at 8:00am...If the airport is open. I certainly never invisioned having this problem. The news of an 8.8 earthquake, in Chile, on Saturday morning was pretty intense and when I woke up with a text message from Josh about it, I thought he was joking...he wasn't. Hah, the good news is that the epicenter was about 300mi south of where I will be staying, that area (Concepcion) is a mess: no water, no electricity, shambles, looting, shooting...but, north - Vina Del Mar - is in good shape. The family I will meet on Friday says that they are safe, well, and still anticipating my arrival.

I'm excited to see what there is for me down south...my mind has never changed, I can't wait to get going, and I'm stoked to see what the Lord is doing down there.

Isaiah 55:8 ...have Your way with me.
