Whirlwind!

As I do every week.. when I have the whole entire day off from work.. I spend my day cleaning and organizing our lovely home. It's insane how much the house gets messy with just two people and a dog residing in it.. but boy does it get out of hand (not in a hoarding type of way either.) As I was collecting our dirty laundry.. I felt God tugging at my heart telling me to go into Ella's room and say a prayer about receiving travel approval. I prayed for travel approval. I prayed that our travel approval would come today. And what do you know? I just received a phone call from our agency with our TA! Oh Lord, You are mighty! So here's where everything gets intense.. usually you have about two weeks notice for your flight and consulate appointment. Well, there is a slight chance that we will be traveling with a group next week. Yes, I just said next week! Since the consulate is closed right now (they are moving) they may or may not respond to our agency regarding a consulate appointment. Either way, we'll find out if we are indeed traveling by this Friday! Ahhh....!!! If we are unable to get an appointment with the consulate, we'll be traveling to China the week of the 8th! Please pray that everything will fall into place! We know that God is good! We know that He knows what He is doing!!
