12 Hours and Counting

So, in 12 hours we'll be leaving Calvary church on a bus, headed to SFO. Shortly after that we'll be on a plane (for 16 hours) to Hong Kong and then on to the final destination, Chennai, India. It's almost unbelievable it's here. It feels like just a few days ago we were having informational meetings, car washes and poker tournaments.
I was thinking today about all the people that have supported the India Team to get us to the point of being able to go, and it's truly incredible, the spread is so wide. If you are one of those people, THANK YOU. But most of all, it's been amazing to watch how God has been providing for this team. The vision we've claimed for our team is, "God is Bigger." and again, it's been awesome to see that happen in all sorts of situations - and we haven't even left yet! But taking that idea further, we claimed Psalm 77 as our team verse:

11 I will remember the deeds of the LORD;
yes, I will remember your miracles of long ago.

12 I will meditate on all your works
and consider all your mighty deeds.

13 Your ways, O God, are holy.
What god is so great as our God?

14 You are the God who performs miracles;
you display your power among the peoples.

15 With your mighty arm you redeemed your people,
the descendants of Jacob and Joseph.
Selah

16 The waters saw you, O God,
the waters saw you and writhed;
the very depths were convulsed.

17 The clouds poured down water,
the skies resounded with thunder;
your arrows flashed back and forth.

18 Your thunder was heard in the whirlwind,
your lightning lit up the world;
the earth trembled and quaked.

19 Your path led through the sea,
your way through the mighty waters,
though your footprints were not seen.

20 You led your people like a flock.

Pretty cool huh?

Anyway, please check back here often, I will try to update it as much as possible and I really hope to have different team members post some of their thoughts here too.

I still have to pack my suitcase...
